WiiWare: independent developer chronicles his struggle


A small, independent developer called Cryptic Sea is desperately trying to get their PC game Gish on the WiiWare Channel. The fact that it’s won a stack of awards should only make the process easy, right? Actually, no.

Edmund McMillen, the creator of the game, had a meeting with Reggie Fils-Aime, the president of Nintendo of America, to discuss Gish’s candidacy for WiiWare. To cut a long story short, he was fobbed off with a business card, and has been left dangling ever since. You can see the transcript of events recorded in the short film above.

This is what we want from WiiWare: award-winning video games made by small independent developers. Please Reggie, give Edmund a chance to prove what he can do. You won’t regret it!
