E3 may be around the corner, but we're not sure there's going to be any announcements left at this rate. We've had a few high-profile leaks recently, and we're about to add another: the popular RPG Maker series appears to be Switch-bound.
A listing has appeared on Amazon Mexico which not only gives us a title - RPG Maker MV - but also a look at the box art. NIS America is in charge of releasing this one, in case you were wondering, and the quoted release date is November 27th.
The last entry was RPG Maker FES on the Nintendo 3DS - let us know you were a fan and if you'll be picking this new one up.

Oh man, I just bought RPG Maker FES a couple of months ago. I totally would have waited for this instead.
Heh it was about time our Amazon did a leak.
It's always some European Amazon
Okay...this has def gotten my attention... 👀
I sure hope this version supports plugins like its PC counterpart. The lack of this in the 3DS version turned me off.
Oh yes, I love RPG Makers of all kinds. Do bring that over please.
I gave up on the 3DS version as I anticipated that it would eventually be released on Switch at some point.
The 3DS version was also embarrassingly bereft of content. I hope they rectify that with this instalment. I also thought it was ridiculously stupid that the software didn't include an RPG of its own. No tutorial. No sample RPG. It was such a sloppy, barebones release.
I'm down for this. Especially if it has an intuitive way to share and download others' games.
They better be using the same name because it has cross-functionality with the PC makers.
I just see little purpose for getting the console RPG Makers if they won't allow me to import resources, edit code, and have limited server times. Two of which isn't an issue for their IOS release.
Finally! I can get a rpg maker that's less than Steam versio- oh wait...
I have an addiction buying these series of games...and I want this as well.
Yep i want this one
@Yosheel Did it not leak South Park: Fractured But Whole for the Switch? I do remember that. It said it was for the Wii though.
13 year old me would've loved this. Not sure 28 year old me has the patience or creativity to make use of this now.
P.S. RPG Maker 2k was the balls. Don Miguel is a legend.
I enjoy RPG Maker but do the console versions let you make custom sprites and tiles?
Because without that it's a little pointless to me...
Seems about right they'd make one (every Nintendo portable since the GBC has gotten one in Japan), what is only surprising is if it is getting a localized version.
@Kimyonaakuma Short answer: No
@Devlind My memory is fuzzy, but I vaguely remember some insider leaked it along with some other games before the direct awhile ago. Hard to keep track of all of these "leaks" anymore though, so I'm not entirely sure.
Omg yes. Wow, I forgot how much I wanted this game.
PLEEEEEASE, YES.
They also said that the new Smash, whatever that is, is set to be released on december this year. But I don’t believe that one bit.
