But the fact that indies haven't outright stated their projects still stand. Yeah, there are some pretty obvious hints for some of them (*cough* SteamWorld Quest *cough* Oceanhorn *cough* Terraria *cough* Monster Boy *helpmeImdyiiiiing*), but no official announcement yet, which falls perfectly in line with what seen with major publishers.
I believe the exceptions we've had of clear announcements for the platform (DQX/XI/Just Dance/Sonic) have been due to specific deals between Nintendo and the publisher. Also, to be honest, I restate I believe the DQX/XI announcement was going to happen with Iwata coming on stage to set the deal
Also, again: Matt (a well-known and very reliable insider over here) said that, despite what Mochizuki heard from a Nintendo's spokeperson, we will hear more from the third parties "one way or another"...I definitely feel this MHDirect falls in the "one way or another" cathegory.
