@Kidfunkadelic83 they now announced fortunately that there is a single player mode(rcently started playing EO2 on myu modden wiiu, altready 100 hours in)

@Joeynator3000 I think we will get a 3rd Dig game, for sure (or I hope).

After the reception to Steamworld Build I think this indicates they are going back to the well.

I have played Dig 1, 2 and Heist. Each one of them are top drawer for me! If you have a way to play them on the 3DS I would recommend that - the bottom screen works as a metroidvania map/inventory and the 3D effect is well implemented.

You are in for a treat.

Loved Untitled Goose Game and this looks right up the same street. Definitely getting this if a physical turns up

Maybe you should've been off watching Netflix's Skull Island, that was the one who deserved more attention than this!

What a joke. Better than nothing, but not by much.

@ikki5 I think it will sell well, the people who liked the original release will probably pick this up, I think it's been long enough. Also, the switch has a much bigger install base than the gamecube did and when you factor in digital release, nobody will miss out if they want it.

This looks great, and hopefully looks like the type of game either Super Rare Games or Iam8bit might release as physical, well fingers crossed anyway

Huh, he is on Radio X with Chris Moyles talking about the TV series right now

@Friendly The way they make the games creates the final game. For their to be a new color existing, they would have to have infallible game creation. I'll give you a example. Look up the true Super Mario Bros 2. The criticism saint Miyamoto received was this: "As I continued to play, I found that Super Mario Bros. 2 asked me again and again to take a leap of faith, and each of those leaps resulted in my immediate loss. This was not a fun game to play. It was punishment – undeserved punishment. I put down my controller, astonished that Mr. Miyamoto had chosen to design such a painful game." Yep, the way they create games is amazing and always has been. Not.

BZZZT is the only game in the direct that we already know is quality (it launched on PC in November).

It's got a MetaCritic "91".

An old-school, intense, precision platformer. It's short and can be beaten in only a couple hours. But you can ramp up the difficulty and go for flawless level runs to extend the fun.

It goes for $12 USD on Steam, and is on sale now for $7 and change.

Damn, this is right up my alley. I love me some roguelites/likes. And TMNT is my own teenage fandom. Really hoping there will be couch co-op, so I can share the experience with my friends over some pizza and beer!

I tried the demo. Too boring for me. ☀️🦋😊

I wasn't too excited about Yars, but I keep forgetting that Advance Wars on Switch exists and I need to pick up a copy sometime soon.

@nintendozach the comment from the Wayforward director is not about the games. It’s about the way Nintendo makes games.

On Instagram the reactions under this game's marketing are horrendous. So many people don't seem to understand what this game is. I myself am very excited, even though I haven't played any of the previous entries of this series. I'm definitely getting a copy somewhere down the line! It seems such a relaxing and magical game.

@AJB83 @Msaturn @abrader Glad that you expressed this. I was watching it and was feeling that I just must have very old fashioned tastes or something. The tone/vibe it was all leaning toward just wasn't for me. It is hard to pinpoint exactly what it is that made me feel it, but a lot seem to be aiming for a 'cozy' vibe? Which is a bit of an overused term at this point, but I don't know. I am happy for anyone who likes anything here and that they get an audience/sales, but I am obviously not the demographic for what was on offer on this occasion.

Oh, have to agree with those that found the announcing/presenting style boring and a bit distracting. I think the way Nintendo handle it with one voice actor for all titles lends itself better to the overall presentation aspect. I realise that would probably take away the indie aspect if they got too involved though!

@Samalik That's not what he said though. He said it is like seeing a new color that doesn't exist. That is hyperbole. If it's like seeing a new color that doesn't exist why did they remake a game that did very much exist? Think about it. Even Yars Risng is based on content from a old game. His language is not credible.

There's enough buzz in my household for this I'll have to get three copies of the game. We'll be able to dive in together ❤️

I get the feeling he quite likes being Knuckles.

Lol at the at the scale of the diver next to the whale.

@wollywoo I HATE the steambots, but man are these games fun to play! Steamworld Heist is every bit as addictive and fun as dig was to me. And usually it's dirt cheap, so no big risks there!

Would be nice if he gave a more detailed response. I went to art school. My professor asked me what color is this wooden table and I said brown, she said that if it was simply brown, it would look very boring, look closer, the tables woodgrain has many variations of brown, yellow, red. Look at concrete, a rusted metal shovel, a blue door, what makes all these things interesting to look at is the subtle variations in color and texture. Now I’m aware that this director is probably not talking about color but a thought process. That’s what I would like to hear more in-depth about.

Reboot camp was trash, he should be ashamed. Horrible graphics and lacking a proper multiplayer. Plus the map editor was terrible. How could they take a beloved game and make it bad?

Delighted. It’s heist time this got a sequel.

Momoa is the lead!? What the hell...

Quite interesting games overalls. though will need more info of course.

Hope you do this again next year.

That doesn't look like the Rayman I remember from Captain Laserhawk...

Ok, joking aside, uh... It's not a sequel to Rayman 3 or Legends, either. Well, at least Ubisoft remembers him.

@nintendozach When you're in a creative role for most of your life, games don't feel like games, they feel like a canvas. So it's not hyperbolic of him to say he felt creatively enlightened when working with Nintendo.

@Splatoon_Guy News is shown and being reported. Is that an issue?

@FishyS "I'm not really sure what the point of having 30 people in the game covering up your pretty view is."

Because its what "the people" want nowdays apparently. Apart from me and you it would appear. If the bulk of this game is geared towards online play and there isn't a substantial single player in the same vein as EO2 i will write it off my list instantly.

I like their out of the box thinking even if it sometimes to their detriment

Paper mario TOK's ring battles are undoubtedly unique and peaked my interest, but they grew stale and its easy to see its flaws after playing through the game. New gimmicks are fun but it stole Pape Mario's identity for the past decade. I like nintendos weird side in moderation

An okay Indie direct. not bad that is.

Cat Quest III, Europa and Steaworld Heist II for me only I think.

Or at least that's what he was told to say.

Wow I thought Antonblast was vaporware...nice to see its actually coming out even if it's not for a long time. The yars reboot looks...interesting. But considering WF hasn't had the best output lately I'm gonna remain cautiously optimistic.

Lost me at roguelike.

@Anachronism You have to be joking. I literally have a copy of both games that say Nintendo Switch on them. They even work with the Nintendo Switch. In the article, it even says Way Forward teamed up with Nintendo. Nintendo worked with the other companies to make those two games and approved them in my example. Hey I'll give you some older examples though. Super Mario Bros 2 (USA) has only 2 continues, Super Mario Bros 3 has no saving. Zelda II is so hard that many players don't care about it and it is the lowest rated Zelda main line game.

I sure wish he’d tell us what makes them so different. I guess the color analogy is cool though.

@boxyguy "He's so uncool" - Shigeru Miyamoto

A dance of fire and ice is gonna put me in the hospital but that soundtrack is bumpin’ so I gotta get it.

Oh yay, another game with limited time stuff so you're forced to play it in that time period to experience it.

I think we've had enough of those. Honestly that puts a bit of a damper on this one for me. Not a deal breaker though.
