A look into the sales of indie games on Wii U and 3DS
Posted on 9 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News, Wii U eShop | 8 Comments
tinyBuild’s Mike Rose held a panel at GDC 2015 today titled “The Turning Tide: Independent Game Sales in 2015”. During the session, Rose touched on the performance of indie titles across a variety of platforms, including the eShop.
On Wii U, it seems that the lowest number developers can expect lies between 300 and 1,000 units. This would be a game that receives poor reviews, lacks marketing, or is exclusive to the platform. The best-case scenario allows games to see sales at around 60,000 copies, with most revenue coming from other platforms.
The situation is apparently much brighter on 3DS. The low-end of the spectrum falls between 1,000 and 5,000 units (poorly rated, no marketing), while the high-end is 50,000 to 200,000 copies (big exposure from Nintendo, multi-platform).
Rose also mentioned in his same talk that developers who ported their games to 3DS and received Japanese localization saw sales that exceeded expectations. Those who ported titles to Wii U via Unity felt it was worth it since the process was relatively easy.

Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars is just a few days away from launching in North America. In the states, Nintendo’s newest release is an eShop-only title.
Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Tipping Stars will take up 930MB of space on Wii U. On 3DS, the game comes in at 2,100 blocks.
Note that 3D is not supported in the 3DS version. The Wii U version only supports the GamePad in terms of controllers. Both were to be expected!
