Indies need the funding more than effing Sega and Sonic. If anything, paying for Timed Exclusivity for Indie content is better for your consumers, and all consumers, because some indies can only come to console with the assistance of a publisher. When the likes of EA, UBI and ACTIV do not give the time of day to indies, I rely on Sony and MS to bring more independant games to all gamers. Nintendo, grow up or go home

Actually all they do is withold games for a large portion of gamers.

As for the funding, it's called kickstarter or Indiegogo.


Kickstarter should be what the name implies, a Kickstarter. Also note that many gaming Kickstarter are unsuccessful because of a lack of marketing. 

How do MS and sony withhold games when majority of them are timed? They appear where they can later, so it means more console games for console gamers. What you've said literally makes no sense at all

You know what else is unsuccesful? N++. Probably shouldn't have gone exclusive. ;)

There are quite a few exclusives that aren't timed like Flower, Journey, No Man's Sky (console exclusive), Ori (console exclusive) etc.

There are also many succesful kickstarters like Divinity: Original Sin (and its sequel), Shovel Knight, Pillars of Eternity, Yooka-Laylee, Bloodstained, Wasteland 2, etc.
