That's true, but the Vita does actually function as a portable console as well...so there's that.
So...high or drunk? which is it?
"And on top of that they have to compete with nintendo IPs."
At the moment, there aren't even Nintendo IPs to compete with.
It's pretty simple why 3rd parties aren't interested in spending money on porting to WiiU, the install base is too small, and they are more focused on Xbox One/PS4 development.
It's just, at the moment, not financially wise to develop for WiiU.
They are having more than just 3rd party issues.
Nintendo was totally un-prepared for the development time demands of going HD and don't even have their OWN software sorted out.
Their management is being pig-headed, and there is poor advertising and a lot of brand confusion.
There are other factors as well such as much more powerful consoles releasing and the price being too high for the tech it contains.
If at this point you think the WiiU will outsell PS4 or Xbox One, you have a severe case of delusion, and should possibly seek help.
WiiU is on a downward spiral. Hopefully Nintendo can turn it around, but with the way they have handled things so far, it's not looking good.

Have a read of this thread "UK Retail: Wii U sells 179K Software Units over 6 Months." for some insight.

I missed Panzer Dragoon Orta on Xbox.
I had a PS2, then PS3/360.
I did not know this was on-rails.
First world problem lol
CommonSense blocked me from replying to his shi**y PMs because...well, bitches do that when they know they are complete morons.
Absolutely not surprised to see him in a Sony related thread being a total douche bag.
"get a life, dude.
taking it all personal because i don't like that shitty game? what a pathetic person you must be."
-commonsense's reply to me, regarding his The Last of Us trolling, sent via PM. (check his comment history to see just how brutal he is in his trolling of The Last of Us)
I'll post my reply here since he's a little bitch, and blocked me.
I'm not taking it personal.
It's just cl...
Yeaaaaah, I don't think you know what that word means.
"ploy
/ploi/
Noun
A cunning plan or action designed to turn a situation to one's own advantage"
Sony doesn't need to be cunning, they laid their plan out and it is solid.
If anybody needs to be "ploying" right now it's MS.
I think when polls in newspapers and sites that have barely any gaming coverage are pointing to a heavy PS4 advantage you might want to come to grips with the fact that more than just "hardcore" gamers are interested more in Sony's next console.
And what the hell do you mean by "PS4 - Real deal, XB1 = Marketing ploy"
That doesn't even make sense.
Both are "real".
It's just that a lot of people have concluded th...
Right, but this has very little relevance to the topic at hand.
Yeah, it was shitty, Sony is not perfect, nor is Microsoft, nor Nintendo.
Maybe try to focus on the topic at hand and show where/how Sony is implementing more DRM with the PS4.
Also read my comment above.
You are making a straw man argument, based on a tiny fraction of discs released.
This in no way makes what Microsoft had planned any less worse.
It actually shows that Son...
Companies do have the ability to learn from mistakes, thinking otherwise leaves you relegated to a bubble.
Yeah Sony did in the past try to implement really shitty DRM, and absolutely NOBODY is trying to deny that.
This does not make it any more excusable for Microsoft, or any other company for that matter, to try to do the same.
Sorry to say, but only an idiot would think that.
Okay according to my disagrees, some idiots do think it is/was okay for MS...
"Forget most hardcore gamers, they're bias and knows squat about anything."
Yes of course, lets ignore the group of people who are most likely to stay informed about each console, rational arguments are hard for you to counter.
Also, please elaborate on which policies most people would want from the Xbox One had they watched more than just the E3 coverage.
I'll assume you are talking about the Family Sharing Plan.
Ho...
PopRocks359, man you rock.
You almost always share my sentiment.
As a WiiU owner I really want the system to succeed.
I just hope they can get their s**t together and give me some quality games sooner than later!
"looks pretty certain that steam is about to enable game sharing"
Wait..what?
Pleas give a source or something for that claim.
Sorry guy, but I speak for the Playstation elite, and not even we would stoop this low.
lol
Dedicated matchmaking servers like the 360 already has?
Or actual game servers?
Outrage? really?
I see a few comments saying they wish more games were playable, and a lot about #DriveClub...but little to no raging.
Again, you are seeing things from inside your little bubble.
Comic Con is NOT a huge gaming event, Sony is showing off PS3, Vita and PS4 games, while MS is showing a few Xbox One games.
