8. Make The Vita The Destination For Indie Developers
Most indie games wont become Vita exclusives, but theyre tailored for the bite-sized gaming Vita provides. A panel at this years Game Developers Conference was lead by indie developers who have worked on the Vita and thoroughly enjoyed it. Sony has to relay that message to every indie developer out there. They recently waived the $99 publisher licensing fee for PS Mobile, making it easier to release games on the Vita. The PlayStation Store now features an Indie Games section. Also, the promotional push of three new recently announced games, Hohokum, Doki-Doki Universe, and Counter Spy, reassures their commitment to this section of the market. Jonathan Blow, developer of Braid and The Witness has shared his praises about Sony while also expressing how difficult it was to work with Microsoft. Team Meat also had similar things to say about Microsoft. These rumblings will spread and could give Sony the opening it needs.
