Here is the problem with this. If you are a big indie developer and actually make a game appealing platforms like Xbox Live arcade and steam will both advertise them on front page a lot and help you sell your game. So yes I understand his steam argument. It is known for indie games and a lot of games on steam has found success. Same goes to XBLA which once again is why you see FEZ on there. Sure a lot of games gets skipped over on XBLA and Steam but most of them is because they are not unique experiences so why advertise them?
Let me ask you this. How often do you see a success on XBLA and Steam? A lot. Even steam has put out plenty of successes in the indie market. Now how often do you hear about a big success coming from nintendo and it's indie games? Im sure there is some but not anywhere near the amount of XBLA and Steam.
Now he may be a hater of nintendo, i really dont know nor do I care. I dont even like the guy or FEZ but i will say that calling steam's indie game treatment atrocious is wrong seeing as how many successes it has. Maybe people should create a good and unique experience
