The Wii U eShop, once the dust settles and it gets a fair viewing, will likely be praised for its role in taking Nintendo's relationship with Indies forward another step. The system's support of Unity in particular, and the store's increased accessibility, brought a number of developers along that were 'new' to Nintendo.
The Nintendo Switch, it seems, could certainly push to do the same thing, with support for engines like Unity and Unreal also helped by the console's usage of NVIDIA technology. Publishers RawFury and Coffee Stain are well-known Indie names jumping into Nintendo's new system this year, for example.
It's now confirmed that the recently announced Dandara and GoNNER will both be playable on Switch at PAX East later this week, at booth #12124. The expo is running from 10th to 12th March in Boston.
If you need a reminder of what these games are all about some trailers are below.
Dandara is due out in the Summer, and GoNNER will come later in the year.
Are you a PAX East badge holder that's planning to try out some Switch games this weekend?

is it just me or do both those games look kind of similar? the dandara one looks more interesting to me
dandara looks like something from the Stormlight books, being able to change the direction of Gravity for your body.
Whats with all the pixelated games nowadays? I love it don't get me wrong, but, i dunno kinda lived through it with the 80s/90s so getting abit sick of it myself
@lemonjellydude I agree. They both look like they could be worth a play too. We'll see how the reviews shake out.
I will add this to my list of booths to check out over the weekend!
I need GoNNER to come out soon.
Pretty cool.
Both looking pretty good. GoNNER looks pretty bat guano crazy. Being someone who has very fond memories of the 8 and 16-bit eras of gaming I am a sucker for these kinds of games.
I'm intruiged. Will wait for reviews and if the price is reasonable I think I'll buy! Is the Kingdom game a two-person game then?
I'm so sorry, but for me this is something not very intereseting at all. We'll see
Will be cool to see what it's like!
@Bunkerneath I get where your coming from, but the same time am so excited they are becoming redone. I mean Shovel Knight , Shantea genie, Axiom, volgarr the Viking! Games that coulda been done on snes, but made now is something tailor made for nostalgic people while also being reintroduced to a crowd of kids that never experienced greatness of 2d era.
Can not wait for flipping death, Dandara looks great as well.
They both look interesting. Gonner looks VERY crazy.
