News:: Developer says 3DS eShop is dead for Nindies

Jools Watsham, known for his work on both Mutant Mudds and Xeodrifter, released his newest game, Chicken Wiggle, to what he refers to as "shockingly low" sales. He goes on to state that “Chicken Wiggle’s first day sales were so low, I thought there was an error in the sales report.” He points some of the blame towards the lack of visibility the game received on the North American eShop during its initial release of August 17.

Instead of calling it quits and moving onto a new project though, Watsham already seems to be working on a port for the Nintendo Switch where he hopes to find a larger audience. Considering the fact that the 3DS has a library of games spanning all the way back to the 2004 launch of the original DS, it’s hardly surprising to hear that a new game might not receive the attention that it deserves. Consumers aren’t exactly starved for options. How does one stand out?
