If you don't care about those games, that's fine, but you could have said 'there aren't any indie games not on Wii U that I like' then you wouldn't have been wrong!

And yes The Witcher 3 is an indie game by most definitions. Independently owned developer, independently funded game. They self published the game apart from the physical console edition in some regions.

According to that definition Nintendo is an indie developer, just saying...

Good point! But isn't Nintendo a large company that has a few development studios (first party)? I'm guessing Nintendo sorts the finance for these studios, they don't fund them themselves. And creative control may not be in the hands of those individual studios, but I'm making assumptions here.

It is indeed very confusing. Would you count Resogun indie? The studio is not owned by Sony, and it makes whatever it wants, but it has funding help and a partnership with Sony...

If what you say is correct then I would still count them as indie yes.

I also wouldn't call TT Games indie as they make a lot of licensed games.
