Indie games sell better on Switch and they play better as well, so yes, Switch will be the best place for indie games and developers. It's the truth, the library will only grow. We're getting Inside as well now. |

As a system to play them on yes. It's like a handheld and home console game in one. There is almost no reason in most cases to buy indie games on another platform when you get the exact same experience with the added portable functionality. (Especially since a lot of indie games don't heavily drain your battery) |

Well, as some Indies said, they sold the most copies on Switch. And thats still a new system with small userbase. Playstation gamers don't buy games, ... at least not as much as Switch-owners.

Switch is definitely becoming best place for India's, development is easy and Indies are selling great on Switch. |

PC obviously wins in terms of sheer quantity of games. In terms of overall quality and value though, it's beginning to look like, at least to me, that Switch is going to run away with it as far as best choice when it comes to consoles. You have a strong list of games, many of which are likely to be of quality because of Nintendo's quality control, along with the ability to play them on the go + the added value of some being physical releases vs PC indies.

What's the point of getting an indie on Ps4, XBO or even PC if its also avalible on Switch? None, the only good reason would be not having a Switch and that's why indies are selling the most on Switch and this will continue.

The console itself is better suited for indies than any other, you are the one ignoring that fact and using the numbers argument instead, of course a console released few months ago has less games than one released 4 years back, that's such an obvious and lame point.

It's the more suitable for indie games though. The vast majority won't have any technical differences between versions, because they don't have the budget to make a high-budget game. So, I was buying my indie games in Steam for the last 5 years, but if I have to choose the Switch version or the Steam version, it's a no-brainer. Portability is a big deciding factor.

Most Indie games look and run as good on Switch or even better thanks to the high pixel density of the screen, they don't have to be more expensive and even when they are is usually still worth it since they have a huge plus on Switch, flexibility. Modding is the only possible argument, but then again that is only on PC, it doesn't happen so much with indie games and most people don't use mods anyway.

Is this what we have to look forward to this generation?

And this is why I dont like when Nintendo does well. Any moderate success is instantly turned into some massive hyperbole like this threads premise |
No kidding...

Yes. A succesful Nintendo console that makes you mad.
