IndieCade is seeing a large Nintendo presence with numerous games being shown on the 3DS and Wii U.

Located in Los Angeles, IndieCade is the International Festival of Independent Games, and as such, features many indie games and their developers. Nintendo's booth is showing off a sizable number of Wii U games:

• 1,001 Spikes
• Armillo
• Knytt Underground
• Pier Solar and the Great Architects.
• Q.U.B.E
• Scram Kitty and his Buddy on Rails
• Shovel Knight
• Tengami
• Teslagrad
• Unepic
• Wooden Sen’SeY

The 3DS is not one to be left out with its own set of titles:

• Grinsia
• Jett Rocket II: The Wrath of Taikai
• Retro City Rampage
• Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse
• Siesta Fiesta
• Treasurenauts

Nintendo is also hosting a panel on bringing games to their systems. IndieCade runs from October 3 through 6.

Indie games often have a retro style, that one the reasons they are so appealing, but 90% of them are 2D side scrollers. The NES-SNES had other perspectives than that. Where are the top down view games or the isometric views? The scrolling shmups?

I'm looking forward to Qube the most, partly because it is different than the rest of the lineup.
