Well Steam/Vita/PS3 has a lot more competition, also MMD just recently came out for Vita/PS3, didnt it?, so not really surprising.

You do realize that's a huge gap between Steam and PSN install base and eshop's? And it was launched just in NA for Wii U. And "recently" means 2 months ago.

The WiiU has maybe 1% of the userbase of Steam/PS3/Vita.

anyway, it makes sense, without big third party publishers, indies can thrive on the platform.
Now, i wonder how the 3ds sales compare to the wii u ones.

My bad, I thought it was as recently as one week or two.

Seems like everyone beat me to the news =). Well I guess it makes sense why Renegade Kid supports Nintendo platforms as much as they do. They support it well and they're receiving the fruits of that dedication.
Someone mentioned in the Nintendo Downloads thread that, according to the creator, the game became profitable within three days.What was said about Unepic?

That is very positive news for on the fence indies and indies close to launching their games.

I actually thought he said 2 weeks.... Either is good news though.
Well we have NES Remix 2 for 4/25 now.I think that's the only new eShop Wii U announcement. The 3DS got a ton.

Nope, 3 days.
So I noticed Super Mario RPG is a downloadable Wii U eshop reward if you spend some of your club Nintendo play coins - yet it isn't on the regular eshop for purchase. Does this mean it's coming?
No, it means you redeem it on the Wii side, since it's not actually a Wii U game. :/
Does Nintendo do sales/special offers with the VC titles? And how about retail titles? How often?
I purchased some titles for my 3DS with this special offers (SMB 3, VLR, RE:R) and I wanted to know if there's something similar for Wii U titles. Thanks!
Yes all the time. Their is usually a sale going on every couple of weeks for something. Nintendo lets devs/pubs do whatever they like sales wise on the eshop

It depends but the rate of sales is roughly the same on Wii U as 3DS.

Tengami's been one of our most anticipated releases for the Wii U eShop since its announcement last year, and we finally know when we'll be sliding our mucky fingers over its touchscreen interface - developer Nyamyam has informed us that the Wii U version will be arriving in June.
The game's out today on iOS but, and we're almost not being jealously biased here, it's absolutely worth seeing on a TV - there's nothing else like it. Also, as an aside, the game's lovely soundtrack is by David Wise - which means, alongside Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze, we have two new soundtracks from the guy in a week. Greedy.
There were the $0.30 sales before VC officially launched, and they were doing Wii U versions of the character sales at the same time as the 3DS ones, all for VC. It happens, but it's not a regular occurrence.

Thanks for the answers! I imagine that it'll be more difficult to see sales on first party VC titles, right? (like A Link To The Past and Earthbound)
