Maybe you're asking yourself now: "Alright. No-Name indie. Besides working on our game I'm active in my local indie-dev-community as one of the organizers of our regular local meetup (if you should ever be in or around Hamburg at the right time, come around:www.indietreff.de) and at the last one I did a talk: "How to get on consoles as an indie" Though we develop a PS Vita-exclusive title we're also licensed developers for the XONE and the WiiU.
Now you might say: "Well, developing for consoles is nothing exceptional anymore, isn't it? " It is. As mentioned above getting on consoles is easier today.
