Forums - Gaming - Remember all those indie games Nintendo supposedly secured?

Stop it, honestly you where expecting any 3rd party or indie games on wii u ? Wow

I think it is odd that until recently ( last 2+- weeks ago) most of those games and more had individual est release dates then in 1 day the release dates all changed to "coming soon". I do not think they all decided that at the same time - The fact that nearly all the I dy games keep getting delayed tells me it is probably a systematic issue not an individual issue-

Why's that? More games are a good thing.

no physical media no buy. NIntendo shoudl fricken get smart and release compilation discs best of 2013 best of 2014. Then give majority of the profits to the indies.



 

 

They are coming...

Also, Moon Chronicles: Episode 1 is supposed to come this month, as the timeframe given was March/April. And Treasurenauts is expected later this year.



They're still coming and there are several newly announced indy games for the Wii U every week.

Many of them were delayed. It's sad that they didn't fill the gap between Tropical Freeze and MK8 better.

All those titles are still on their way. Search each of them individually for status updates.

It is not Nintendo's fault that indies are fairly bad at keeping up with release dates...


Heck. Even Nintendo is guilty of that. Being late to deliver on Wii U seems like a normal thing so far. =(

At least not ALL of Nintendo's games get delayed, but they delay way more this gen then they used to.

Because he only likes the large conglomerates who dictate prices and make the same games over and over. Why else? Coming soon, Call of Duty: New colored guns. Look at the rubbish EA published on the Wii U. Unplayable trash with jumpy frame rate. Hand me a game like Abe New N'Tasty anyday over some EA recycled junk.
