Sony used the Indies when they hadn't much to show but once they had other games and popular system they quickly ditched the indie market. Nintendo is doing amazingly well with the Switch and they still make Indie only directs and push them hard at conventions. Don't think this is going to change next year if they are still doing it even if they are planning to sell 20 millions Switch this FY.

 

But anyway, great for the team. Like some people said, indie devs would be crazy not to port their games to Switch.

It’s true that the Switch is selling a lot but the library is sparse enough for Nintendo to push indies. Sony dropped indies roughly in 2016.

Nintendo has less games available than Sony, so unlike Sony, Nintendo needs indie games. It's a strategy for Nintendo that Sony isn't required to follow.

Personally, I find more indie games on PS4 that I like than on Nintendo. Nintendo is like 2D platforms everywhere. No doubt many 2d plats are brilliant, but I'm just fed up with 2d plats. I can't play this genre any more.
