People shouldn't judge a console by the absence of a couple of ips, but by their entirety of games. And i say that as someone who thinks that Nintendo really dropped the Ball with the wiiu. Wiiu got splatoon, bayonetta 2, donkey kong, Pikmin, #fe, fatal frame, wooly world, Kirby dream rainbow, star fox... there is a lot of stuff out there.
If we're going by the entirety of their libraries( and by that, the combined strength of first party+ third party). the Wii U clearly falls behind previous consoles. Touting certain titles that a system like Gamecube never had is a circular argument, because the u never got a F-Zero title, or Animal crossing, or Star Wars Rogue, or Eternal Darkness. We can go down that road all day. Break it down by genre, I'm not sure you could make a great argument for the Wii U's superiority in any facet asides from platformers. Fighters? Gamecube. RPGs? Gamecube. Sports titles? Gamecube. It got good/great support from the major parties, EA, Activision, Sega, Namco, Capcom. Like, it's really not even up for debate in that regard.
