@jump If you try to ward them off the term "indie" they'll just migrate to their backup description "AAA indie".
Basically I think at this point "indie" now means "any game made by anyone that can be described using a combination of any of the following words in any combination: 'rouge-like', 'pixelated', 'souls-like', 'spiritual successor' or 'metroidvania'".
@DannyBoi Doubt it. Labo's official website got pulled down, so there's probably nothing left coming of it. Not to mention, they haven't dropped a kit in a years time.. so it's pretty much completely dead at this point.

@Slowdive Bizarre, Nintendo hasn't made an internally developed DK since the arcade days other than DK '94 as far as I recall. Rare (Country, Land, Racing), Retro (Returns), Paon (King of Swing, Jungle Climber), and Namco (Konga) all have handled it in the years since. I wonder why Nintendo might have actually brought the IP in-house finally.
It's like Yoshi (Artoon, Arzest, Good Feel) or Star Fox (Namco, Q-Games, Rare, PlatinumGames, Argonaut Games) but even those have more in-house titles.
I hope Earthbound is added to the SNES app. And Chrono trigger too.
Earthbound probably will eventually, I can't imagine Chrono Trigger will. I've never looked into why too much, but apparently its a bit more difficult to put out Chrono Trigger re-releases than their other games. And plus, SE really wants people to pay for their old games. Like right now its 15 bucks on Steam, when SNES games in the Wii era were 8.
@DannyBoi The only DVD drives that can do it are no longer on the market.
There's only two known that I'm aware of, and you need to be sure they have the right firmware installed. If it's been patched it won't read.
Yeah, it's not really worth it. Doing a quick search I found one of those drives in an enclosure for $115AU + $35AU shipping. On the Australian equivalent of Craigslist there's a used Wii with 2x controllers, all the cables, and 9 games for $90AU.

@Slowdive
I heard this rumor now multiple times. Supposedly the Mario Odyssey team is working on the game, which would be great and disappointing at the same time, since I’d love to see an Odyssey 2.
The hidden DK area at Super Nintendo World also hints at something DK related coming this year.
Something's happening, Nintendo just removed the last year of NSO news articles from the Switch news section. The most recent news article present now is the February 2020 batch which means these were removed:
May 2020 (the batch that contained Panel de Pon)
July 2020 (the batch that contained DKC1)
September 2020 (the batch that contained DKC2)
December 2020 (the batch that contained DKC3)
February 2021 (the batch that contained Prehistorik Man)
The games are still in the apps but it's really odd that the news articles were removed.
