But otherwise, I was going to say what you were alluding to in that everyone seems to be forgetting that the Wii U had something the N64, GCN and Wii didn't have, which was a solid pipeline of indy games. Shantae, Freedom Planet, OlliOlli, Don't Starve, Oddworld, Chariot, Citizens of Earth, Octodad the aforementioned Axiom Verge, Runbow. All of these were on Wii U, forgive me if not all of them fall within the two years before the launch of the Switch. |

Agreed. As bad as third party support was on Wii U, Indie games were the one thing that kept the system alive outside of Nintendo. I mean, systems like the N64 and GameCube wish they could've had this kind of support.
