New Nintendo Infographic Shows Exciting Indies Coming To Switch In 2020 And Beyond

Sports Story is the only guaranteed day 1 purchase for me. Some of the others I'm interested in, will wait to see reviews first.

What happened to West Of Dead? I really liked the look of that, all gone a bit quiet.

Where’s Rivals Of Aether and Cyber Shadow? I feel like those should be a big deal.

Is Super Meat Boy still a thing? I thought it was cancelled or something.

Maybe Hades, if it's good.

When I first saw Garden Story, I thought it was Picontier.. what happened to Picontier?

"Which ones will you be buying?"

I think "too many" is the answer for me.

lots to look forward to here. garden story looks great, and obviously silksong is going to be a real humdinger

All about Hollow Knight Silksong for me. No doubt I will pick up some of the other games mentioned but Silksong is the game I am most looking forward to, indie or otherwise.

Probably quite a few. I watched a trailer for Windbound earlier and thought that looked really lovely. Based on how much I enjoyed Golf Story, Sports Story seems another obvious one.

Looking forward to Sports Story. Golf Story was fun and a real delight. Hopefully, that feeling continues in this one

Edit: I imagine Hollow Knight: Silksong will be another I'll eventually look forward to. I haven't finished the original. But I liked what I played and I suspect I'll get around to finishing it soon

None of them, sorry.
But i found other interesting indie games from playasia.

Spiritfarer is a really lovely game, worth every penny on Switch unless you have Game Pass. I reckon I'll be getting Silksong and The Red Lantern when they drop.

Also, where the hell is Baldo on this graphic?

GoNNER 2, Bear & Breakfast and Silksong all look exciting to me. Everything else looks good, but I really loved GoNNER and the first Hollow Knight. Plus, Bear & Breakfast looks too goofy for me to ignore.

Edit: Can't believe I forgot Sports Story. Golf Story was so good and I generally don't care for golf. Sports Story looks so fun!

I really need Silksong. Hollow Knight is probably my favorite game on Switch.
And I was looking forward to Cyber Shadow, hope it's still going to be released this year.

Hades looks pretty good.

So many of them look great and some I’ve already played are brilliant. Hades and Subnautica are fantastic, you should all jump on them and I can’t wait for Silksong and Sports Story.

Can’t wait for the inevitable Hollow Knight and Axiom Verge physical collections.

Will also pick up Haven, Eastward and Sports story and maybe everything else too.

Aaargh! Too many good games....

I'd like to find out more about Axiom Verge 2

What would the Switch be without indies and ports....

Mineko’s Night Market has been MIA for too long :/

Out of this big list, Hollow Knight Silksong is the only video game I will pay money for.
It is my most anticipated game in 2020, I am ready to pay the full price 60€ on day 1, or whenever preorder opens.

Thank you Team Cherry

I’m missing Empire of Sin and Baldo though?

@koekiemonster a revolutionary and cool machine with amazing first party games.

Silksong and Sports Story ASAP, pls

@Friendly yeah I'm keen for Baldo too.

Where did the Good life go?!?! I was hoping for that Swery game this year at some point.
From what's there, Axiom Verge 2, Last Campfire, Olija, Card Shark and Grindstone are my planned purchases.

Hades and Silksong, can't wait!

Bought A Short Hike and it's an amazing game. Will buy av2 and Silk song. These comments make we want to try Golf Story then probably Sports Story.

Hollow Knight SilkSong
For me This is going to be the game for the Xtmas season, even thou i have to admit, since the announcement, excitement has been going down a little but could be cuz i expected to arrive sooner, looking forward regardless 🙂

COME ON SILKSONG!!! WHEN TEAM CHERRY???

Spellbreak wooooooh!!

Will pick up Silksong, but I'm losing faith on its release, we had no new information for a long time now. It's obviously the heavier title here.

There is Silksong and then there is everything else. Sports Story will be brilliant for sure, as will Torchlight 3 and a few others on the list but Silksong is guaranteed to be on another level. The original is one of the best games I've ever played.

Hotshot Racing, which is, er, not on here.

An infographic that included first part games as well would be cool......

For me its obviously hollow knight silkson, also sports story, axiom verge 2 and haven. Might also pick up subnautica as well

@McEhret1 that’ll come next week, after the main direct

‘Crosses fingers’

I'm currently only interested in Windbound. It looks like a fun crossover between Disney Moana and The Wind Waker with some Avatar the Last Airbender mixed in.

The lack of Baldo in this list is disturbing.

Anyway, I'm still hopeful for Cris Tales, and Mineko's Night Market looks quite appealing, but otherwise I'm not feeling most of this list.

I actually really loved Hollow Knight, but, for some reason, I'm not feeling the same level of enthusiasm for Silksong.

That was such a good Direct! More like this Nintendo!

Cyber Shadow and Bushiden.

@Ralizah I'm anxious for Silksong, myself. That was a new studio that created Hollow Knight and I want to see what all that experience can create, now. I'm even encouraged how they are taking their time, again. That bodes well.

Excited for Silksong.

Grindstone is a really good puzzle game but also available on Apple Arcade and it’s probably best played on iPad/phone

@aaronsullivan I'm sure it'll be excellent. Hollow Knight is one of the best indie games ever made, and it was the developer's first game, I believe? Absolutely unbelievable.

With that said, I'm just not excited for more Hollow Knight. Same reason I didn't really return for the free DLC content. I'm hoping they move on to other non-HK projects after Silksong.

What about the AAA and AA games info graph? We need news now give us something to look forward to this holiday season especially as I'm now not getting a ps5 at launch

I cannot wait for Silksong. But I actually hope the devs take their time with it to make something really special.

@Blooper987
I'm really looking forward to Cyber Shadow, which looks like the best Ninja Gaiden clone ever. I wonder why it isn't on this list.

Really happy to see Mineko’s Night Market still on the docket. I was sure it was cancelled.

Axiom verge 2 and Eastward will be day one purchases for me if they don't have silly prices.

Isn't that the wrong Super Meat Boy? It's Super Meat Boy Forever that's coming, isn't it?

Eastward for me! It looks so good!

Lots of cool looking games on this list...But (as others have aksed)....why no Baldo??

@koekiemonster Unlike any other platform.

@Dromosus Right?!? At this point Baldo is my most anticipated game and it's like they just forgot about it. Last I heard it was releasing summer as a timed exclusive but they're running out of time for that release window

Cloudpunk is good, yall

I'm sad that Solar ash kingdom got poached by Sony! I loved hyperlight drifter. And steamworld devs poached by Microsoft for that Gunk game! Leave our indie companies alone! Seriously though I jhest... I'm sure it's a great financial help for the studios.

Silk song, sports story, hades, inmost, a short hike, spiritfarer, gonner 2

I'm looking forward to Minoria, which is a game that's not in this graphic.

@BenAV I do not care for playing cards at all, but card shark does look really interesting. I love the animation style.

Skatebird, Skatebird, and Skatebird a third time.

I see myself buying Silksong and Axiom 2 someday. And that Fight Crab game is already released in Japan and I chuckled through the whole release trailer. That looks like an absurd kind of fun and I'm surprised Nintendo excluded it here...

So we all agree that Super Meatboy Forever is never coming out right?

@Ralizah Kinda the same feeling I have... I'm just not excited for more HK, but I know I'll still buy Silksong. I probably won't play it for a while, but I'm buying it day 1 to support the devs because they are incredibly incredibly talented people and deserve as much success as they can get.

I completed HK as well as path of pain and haven't returned since the lifeblood update as Godmaster really didn't appeal all that much to me (more difficult bosses with minimal impactful story), but I'll probably do the main game of Silksong and then let that stay as is as well (unless they add something truly exciting).

Other than that, I guess I'm only "excited" about Spiritfarer and Sports Story. Gonna begin playing Spiritfarer later today, yay!

Where's Adventure Planet 2?

Other than On this list
Garden Story
Bear and Breakfast
boyfriend Dungeon
Last Campfire
( which is out but still on fence to get it on Nintendo or Steam ) Raji
Not sure if this is dead or still plan to release
mineko's night market

I am also looking forward to
The Survivalists
Edit: None indies
SMT V
and Rune Factory 5

Sport story, card shank, red lantern, windbound, garden story are guaranteed dat 1 purchases the rest waiting review or sale but interested in many

Edit and last campfire

Silksong, for sure.

But there's tons more there: A Short Hike, Spiritfarer, Hades, Sports Story...

I'd add Subnautica, but I have it on PC already, still unplayed.

Probably several but Silksong is my most highly anticipated game. Indie or otherwise.

@0L1V14 In my opinion, Hollow Knight is one of the very few games where I feel like looking up a map and occasional hints actually enhances the experience rather than destroying it. You definitely shouldn't feel bad to utilize them.

Silksong might be my most hyped game of all time. Hollow Knight is easily in my top games of all time. Possibly #1.
And yet Silksong somehow looks it will be much better.
I'm so glad that Hollow Knight is the one game I ever decided to help support on Kickstarter. It turned out just as amazingly as I hoped.

I think I might try Spellbreak and Skatebird.

@nkarafo it's extremely good

source: played for dozens of hours in Early Access on steam. Tons of different builds that evolve differently every playthrough, amazing art, banger OST, a shocking amount of voice acted lines to complement the multiple runs.

About 14 there I am interested in. Vast majority would require reviews. I'm sure there are "hidden gems" outside my 14 as well.

I have already downloaded Raji

Probably none of them...

Spiritfarer is AMAZING! God i would recommend this game to anyone, it is so lovely.

We already have Super Meat Boy - surely this should be Super Meat Boy Forever?

@sketchturner One of those rare instances when a game world consumed me completely. I thought about it constantly I even had dreams about it.

Gonna go with Silksong, Hades, Subnautica

Can people go buy VOLTA-X already?!?! It really got lost with the GOD AWFUL promotion behind it (see: none at all).
It’s a great game but literally ZERO community right now.
So sad.

@Postbuttwave OK then I am sold! One of my friends told me also that it's very very good. I told him that I don't like rogue likes, but he said to me trust me it's very good. Later on as you progress, the story gets better etc. So, if you recommend it too, then I will buy it.

Silksong and Axiom Verge 2, definitely.

I just want a release date for Eastward so much. Definitely the one I'm looking forward to the most from this list.

Axiom 2 maybe. Not bothered about the rest. Didn’t like hollow knight was far too depressing

@playstation_king why? No ps at launch

@sandman89 too expensive to be around Christmas aswell I have quite a large family including my partners aswell so a £400-£500 console plus 2 £50 games and a second £50 controller just isn't affordable for me during November/December

Plus at the moment there's no launch games that warrant me buying one straight away, watch dogs and cyberpunk I can get on the ps4

Sports Story and Hollow Knight are a shoe in, and will keep an eye on Bear and Breakfast for my daughter. She loves We Bare Bears and reminds me of it.

Layer of the Clockwork God and Sakuna: Of Rice and Ruin for me... neither of which are on the infographic!

@ukaskew I'm looking forward to this also, I have played the preview demo, very good arcade racer...

Red Lantern
SilkSong
And WindBound for me!

Can't wait for Cris Tales, Grindstone and Eastward

For me it’s;
Hades, Spiritfarer, Raji, Hollow Knight Silksong, Cloudpunk, Eastward, Bear & Breakfast,, & Windbound.

So plenty of indies I wanna play.

Super Meat Boy Forever is the Duke Nukem Forever of indie games.

lotta good gaems. Thankfully I have expendable muds these days

Not seeing Freedom Planet 2 makes me sad

Yeah there’s like 14-15 here I’m very interested in. Silksong tops the list though!

The anticipation I have for Silksong can not be measured.

@koekiemonster

Much worse off

Bring on Hollow Knight, Eastward and Cristales. Just try to be gentle with my wallet otherwise.

let me let nintendo life and its wonderful viewers in on a little hidden gem in the works:

I hate to rain on Nintendo’s parade, but not a one of these excite me... I still haven’t even completed the base game of Hollow Knight.

I just want Breath of the Wild 2, Metroid and Mario Golf.

I just wanted to play Raji (I think it’s not going to be released in the Japanese eshop according to some news I read at yahoo. The day it’s a exclusive game for overseas marked only) and the skater xl (they stopped talking And answering at all Any questions regarding the switch version).

Spiritfarer... spend the money. Its the best most addictive game you will play this year

@ClaytThaGreat spirirfarer did not excite me at all... omg im so glad i picked it up

There’s a lot of very cool looking indie games coming. What the community needs now is some reassurance that the first party games are coming too. I assume that Nintendo is keeping these under wraps to try to steal some headlines around the launch of the rival consoles, but it’s getting pretty close now.

Really looking forward to Sports Story and Silksong!
But the lack of Gunvolt 3 disturbs me!

Hollow knight is one of the greatest games I've ever played. Words cannot describe how excited I am for silksong.

@GilbertXI I agree. Hollow Knight reminded me why I liked video games. I've been playing games before Hollow Knight just to play them as distraction and escapism but when I played Hollow Knight I was really playing to experience it. Haven't felt like that since I was a kid.

@Kirby_Girl I actually just started playing it only a month or so ago. I was pre-ordering Origami King (yeah I know) and I've been recommended the game for a while, so I decided what the heck. I'm now over 120 hours in, still finding excuses to not fight the radiance and enjoying every second of it. The soundtrack is god-tier as well.

I'm just gonna get the ****ing lot of them.

@luxoricious no wonder it’s called SMB Forever, we would probably wait 10 or 15 years more for it to appear and disappoint everyone

Axiom Verge 2 and Silksong are top of the list, day 1 buys.

Oceanhorn 2.......

Wow
