I thought Nintendo already reduced or eased the cost of patches drastically?

I guess they don't consider the Wii U a modern console.

"Simply put they've told us that there are no basic payments for each patch (which were pretty high on most platforms) and that we can update our game almost as much as we want. For indie developers this is huge."

Nintendo took a number of substantial steps with the Eshop, especially considering where they were with the Wii. Now if only your account wasn't tied to a single system...

Certainly it's not perfect, but it sounds very developer-friendly. Possibly more developer-friendly than it is user-friendly!

Hahah, so true.
