It seems that Edmund McMillen—developer of The Binding of Isaac, Super Meat Boy, and many others—has a certain affinity for the Nintendo Switch. After bringing The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ to the platform early in the console’s life, it was recently announced that his upcoming platformer—The End is Nigh—would also be seeing a Switch release. Now, McMillen has indicated that another of his upcoming games—The Legend of Bum-bo—will also probably see a release on the console.
McMillen recently answered some fan questions on Twitter, and one user asked him if The Legend of Bum-bo would be coming to the Switch. McMillen replied with a somewhat noncommittal, “I think so yeah”. For those of you out of the loop, The Legend of Bum-bo is a randomly generated puzzle strategy game, sporting McMillen’s signature art style. It looks interesting enough, and while not a whole lot is known about the project, it seems that there’s a good chance it’ll be coming to the Switch whenever it’s finished. Here’s the teaser trailer for it:

I'll take all the Edmund I can get! I love his creepy-cute art style, and I have yet to play one of his games that wasn't at least provocative, if not genuinely brilliant. Bring it on!
I would be buying the heck out of it if it was likely to see release in PAL regions — highly unlikely if their treatment of Isaac is any indication.
The more Edmund, the better, I always say.
'What did you think of Isaac on Switch?' It's like rubbing salt into an open flesh wound.
Thanks for the good news on a morning ! There still is something to look forward to after all.
I just want a meat boy port, it'd be epic on Switch, I've played more Isaac than ever on Switch and I'd play more meat boy
Looks like Bum-bo should have an A

Definitely interested in this one. So glad the Switch is region free so no need to worry about if it'll make it to PAL regions or not.

Won't know if I want it until I see the gameplay
I've always found his art style discomforting, but I'm sure plenty of other fans are excited.
edmund needs a happy meal
Issac tops my switch at 140 hours. This is good news.
