It always had. For exclusives. Let's have a look at multiplat attach rates, shall we?

Why? If this is about exclusives then why talk about something that will not apply?

Nowhere in the article is anything mentioned about exclusives. He even talks about other platforms.

I was agreeing with him and then pointing out that the statement doesn't apply generally to all games on Nintendo platforms. He didn't specify exclusives or multiplat games. So the statement might be considered false, even though he was only talking about indie games.

Overall a very good interview that gave insights why they chose Nintendo, but also that it might not be the perfect match for everyone.

Huh. Guess you're right. Though I was under the impression indie games sold well on the console. Even multiplats. This was actually the first time I've heard of indie devs "leaving the console in droves" in fact.
