Sony invested a lot in that, and indie devs are a lot into vita despite ridiculous sales.

But still, ridiculous sales.

Do you think indie games can actually sell a system ?

Sure.

They sell systems.

I don't think anyone really bought a 360 because of indie games. I think they bought indie games because of the 360

If they get exclusivity deals, yeah. Indie game fans are pretty dedicated and niche, so they're willing to pay a price premium.

nope.

only price and new original IPs can do the job..like nintendogs for the DS. or Wii Fit for Wii.

Braid sold systems, I think. So it goes both ways.

No, but still a good move as it adds to variety

Braid is like 1 million sales. Most of them already had a 360. It's not some huge system seller.

And braid is like a super big indie success

But it does sell systems. You yourself admit it. So winning indie devs can sell systems.

Not on their own, imo, but combined with bigger titles they can make the difference in choosing to purchase or not.
