i wish people would stop mentioning W4 Games as a porting option.
their lowest revenue tier costs $2000 a year. most indie games sell a few hundred copies.
You'd be hard pressed to find console support for much less than that - compare it with Unity or GameMaker's console support tier and you'll find it's pretty similar.
It can take hundreds of dev-hours to port your engine to consoles yourself, so having another company handle it for you, for all 3 consoles, for only $2000 is a pretty good deal!
Most indie games sell on Steam/Steam Deck first and port to consoles later, usually after being picked up by an indie publisher.
The $2000 is also to port to all three console platforms, it's $800 per. This makes it feasible to say, only target PlayStation with W4 and use the community Switch port.
