I'm gonna guess it's remained relatively even? The power of Steam might've won out but this has been a giant love letter for Nintendo fans by Nintendo fans so I dunno...
Anyway, I'm super happy they won that Indie game award. I've said this in 2 other threads already but it is so deserved. It is the new Cave Story, your undisputed king of retro indie games that we will be playing for a long time. I'm not saying this out of hyperbole or anything, I just feel this just an obvious statement in a way. If anything, I'm not even one of the people saying it's Game of the Year in general, so I know some people love this game more than I do. Nothing's come around to be so relevant to "indie gaming" since then that makes me think of retro games until this one, and it's the best one and most well received. Also helps that it actually plays more like those old games (Cave Story was more a slightly odd take on Metroidvania).
What's wrong with Shovel Knight coming to PlayStation? The more people who get to play the game, the better.
Its no longer exclusive, thats what wrong

Not really wrong imo, maybe sad for Nintendo, but as a consumer it shouldn't really matter I believe.
I am however going to be a bit pissed if it will be cross-buy on Playstation platforms and not on Nintendo platforms. :/

Thats Nintendo's prerogative to create some sort of cross buy system (they have but its not really widespread).

Well it wasn't really an exclusive with it being on PC, especially as it's something most PCs can run regardless if they were built for gaming or not. My PC isn't good enough to run any 7th gen console games, but it has no problem with indies like Shovel Knight.
With the popularity they'd be stupid not too. Lets also remember that if it wasn't a success then they might not be porting it over to other systems. All this really means is the inevitable sequel or new project which more then likely will hit Nintendo systems first.

Well I was going to pick this up on the Wii U but I think I will wait for it to hit PS4. I wouldn't be surprised if PS+ members will get it for free like Dust.

Sony pays the dev to have their games free for the month....so I'm sure Yacht Club games will be happy to oblige (although no one said it would be a PS+ free title as far as I know)
I'm glad it's coming to other platforms, but not that they get exclusive gameplay... Even though it's just one wanderer, I'm always going to feel like I have an incomplete version of the game now.

Incomplete version?Why?Is there new stuff that makes it the definitive version of the game?If there is i'm dying to know.
