Reggie has said there will be a ton of third party support, especially from Ubisoft, Activision, and Disney. No mention of EA.

Could be, but let them rise their Console sales, using 1st Party support first, before expecting any 3rd Party to become attractive.
Of course I'd like to help Nintendo by releasing Wii U eShop exclusives first, but remember that it's coming from an Indie Company, meaning that the budget is low, with hardly room for advertising, so instead, I'll need to promote everything via Twitter, YouTube, Forums, etc.
Aka, my help should help a bit, but not a lot, plus I'd need to be veeeeeery original, or there are no new Wii U owners, and existing Wii U owners won't see any added value into this.
As I've said before, the Wii U not selling as well as they wanted, is their own fault.
They saw how bad the 3DS performed with almost no 1st Party titles, and how it became such a success, when releasing more and more 1st Party titles.
Before the release of the Wii U, they said they've learned a lesson.
Okay, so the Wii U got released, exact same pattern as the 3DS had was clearly shown, but with the only difference being, that there was one Mario game at Launch (the 3DS had none).
A few months later, in a Nintendo Direct, all Iwata could do, is say "sorry".
Amazing 1st Party games got announced half a month ago, so at least we know what to expect.
Once they get released, I'm 100% sure the 3rd Party support will actually come, instead of cancel or go Multi-Platform.
Once that happens, a 3rd Party doesn't need to be as critical as I've stated in the 2nd Paragraph anymore, making the support easier to get.
