Time for Alex's timeless introduction...

talllennart said:

more sounds from games and lesser talking then we buy more indie games maybe

Yay, here are more old games that I've already played, that are more expensive than on any other platform.

Boogaloo_Jenkins said:

Not gonna lie, the highlights of this show for me were finally getting a release for cristales and Aztech forgotten gods! Looking great!!

Shambo said:

Anyway, good evening (or whatever time it's there), I have some dogs to feed and games to play

Peace out

Shambo said:

True, but some of the games I have the best memories of got very mixed reviews (I'm thinking of Fragile Dreams on Wii now, but there's plenty more)

Now later all I need rest

I wonder if The Witness will ever come to Switch. I actually liked that game. Creator is a bit of a pretentious douche, but it was a neat puzzle game.

I was really wondering were fez was on the switch but uh, here it is.

BongoBongo said:

@Shambo - no but means I am less likely to

everynowandben said:

I also never finished FEZ - I tried to go back about a month ago and was really confused, hahaha..

Same

Chunkboi79 said:

@snatcher I actually got lost in fez excited to give it another go

LOL that fine

I hated Fez, lol

Fez was really cool, I never finished it on the ps3 so

Shambo said:

Cuphead DLC is what I wait for, because they said they'll make a physical complete release AFTER that

Weird not to drop more info than they did on TMNT

If were luck we might get a direct

everynowandben said:

I just wanted details I didn't get, so maybe it wasn't that bad overall, it just wasn't what I was looking for personally - details on TMNT, Baldo, Axiom Verge

Silksong and Cuphead DLC are just a product of our fevered imaginations

So E3 for silksong then?

Too bad the initial TMNT reveal wasn't saved for this presentation. That'd be a cool reveal.

(Cricket noises)

Shambo said:

mixed reviews doesn't mean YOU won't enjoy it

rjejr said:

Just saw an ad for Cracker Barrel on the side and now I'm hungry. Web browsers w/o ad block are weird.🤷

BongoBongo said:

Aztech the most intriguiging - but sometimes they look good in the vid but get mixed reviews (like Raji last year)

everynowandben said:

No, you're right. That's fair. Just because I've seen it doesn't mean other people have.

Good to hear!

Oh btw Raliza, The Rajing fight is going really well I just put it on pause bc I was so tired LOL, I will finish it later

I don't know if I've seen most of that before. I probably would have forgotten it if I had

Shambo said:

I think it was great though, but I need more time to actually SEE what happened

BongoBongo said:

at best there were a couple of games id want to check reviews out for

Chunkboi79 said:

skull looks pretty dope

everynowandben said:

its stuff we've seen before or no details

Now, now, different people like different things

-_-

everynowandben said:

What was there to like?

TheAwesomeBowser said:

I can't be the only one that liked it...

BongoBongo said:

worst indie world showcase ever

YA this sucked, NL I'm waiting for the poll to be up

BongoBongo said:

no sports story or ax verge 2

FML Back to Monster Hunter

No World of Horror or Baldo either

But damn no fall guys, no splunky, cuphead, or silksong

The game about 400 days was heart wrenching. Not sure I could play that.

First one wasn't a terrible game, but a sequel isn't "One Last Thing" material, IMO

Shambo said:

And now 400 days of longing for the next Direct... In real time.

Skull was another cool one

Lord said:

Finally some HOTD news

Hyping up Oxenfree 2 was weird, man

I'm going back to freaken bed

Peteykins said:

What was that Kiwi game? Looked incredible.

Art of Rally looked good too.

Twitch died when the last game wasn't silksong

everynowandben said:

TMNT gave no new details

Jacob1092 said:

I mean no Smash reveals or BotW2 so obviously I'm headed over to Twitter to vent my rage.

I thought it was nice and varied. (I'm not a narrative gamer somuch, but I'm not about to say they shouldn't be on Switch)

Shambo said:

SEGA Direct would indeed be better, if it has HOTD Overkill in it as well. and Madworld 2

We got TMNT which I was hoping for

I hope the Turtles game plays well. I'm glad it didn't skip the Switch.

BongoBongo said:

I need to get back to work boooo

Same

Boring

So what did yall think?

BongoBongo said:

maybe if you can't get a chat with the dev then you are relegated to sizzletown

BongoBongo said:

they do bulk it out with the developer chats

Kochambra said:

Labyrinth City looked cool too!

House of the Dead Remake was the most random thing, lol.

All the cool stuff is usually in the sizzle reel. They know how to build hype lol

Pacmanrace said:

Even better, a Sega Direct

Dark-Luigi said:

Not bad. I rate it 7/10.

Shambo said:

Now, a House of the Dead Direct.

Abeedo said:

Labyrinth city was barely shown off yet looked like it had a lot of promise

everynowandben said:

4/10

BongoBongo said:

I can't believe they showed off Silksong and announced the release date - I am watching the Scandinavian youtube channel so maybe your UK/US ones were different

Abeedo said:

now to rewatch turtles trailer again

Pacmanrace said:

Oh boy, I don't know what year Oxenfree II comes out D:

I need to know more about Labyrinth City.

Nakasan140 said:

Need more HoTD though

Nakasan140 said:

Surprisingly well paced

everynowandben said:

oof

ok.

JHDK said:

One Oxenfree was enough for me

Abeedo said:

that was great

GhostGeneration said:

Well, Fez it is!

Shambo said:

still have to finish the first one, have the LRG version of it even...

Nakasan140 said:

Banger of a Showcase

Abeedo said:

free day one on gamepass

GhostGeneration said:

Eh, Oxenfree kinda got on my nerves.

That was disappointing, unsurprisingly.

TheAwesomeBowser said:

IN 2021 AS WELL?

YoshiAngemon said:

Oxenfree II: Lost Signals

Pacmanrace said:

Kochambra said:

MetalMario said:

TheAwesomeBowser said:

Masterchicken said:

DCorp said:

Abeedo said:

bozz said:

everynowandben said:

Pacmanrace said:

everynowandben said:

Im sorry that was bad

bozz said:

Pacmanrace said:

WHERE'S BALAN WONDERWORLD?!?!

PBNightmare said:

Can't wait for TMNT

DCorp said:

Shame there's no "one more thing"

virusnetwork said:

why wouldn't they focus on house of the dead remkae

bozz said:

TMNT alone makes this good

Dammit, there is always cool stuff in the sizzle reel!

YoshiAngemon said:

Is WayForward a joke to these guys?

This Direct Summed Up: FEZ gets a Switch port.

Why didn't they show more of The House of the Dead????

Masterchicken said:

FEZ! TODAY

ooooo Fez! Nice

everynowandben said:

Feel like HotD Remake deserved better/more than that

Nakasan140 said:

Mad to just slip HoTD in there like that!!

Grumblevolcano said:

TheAwesomeBowser said:

I did not see that coming

TheAwesomeBowser said:

WHOA

Pacmanrace said:

Plot Twist: Balan Wonderworld is the last thing

Looks bland to me

I'm so excited for my Shantae GBC cart

bozz said:

That hip to waist ratio is weird

JHDK said:

This is a hard "meh" to me

YoshiAngemon said:

I just hope my GBC Repro Cart comes in this month, like advertised.

Dark-Luigi said:

Oooh this looks cool

GhostGeneration said:

Yeah, this one looks awesome!

DockEllisD said:

this looks like it could be alright

This one looks pretty decent

BongoBongo said:

this looks cool - could be the 3d hollow knight that blue fire didnt deliver

TheAwesomeBowser said:

Oh wow I'm loving the look of this one

WoomyNNYes said:

interesting

Pacmanrace said:

Cyberpunk but it's Aztec

JHDK said:

Mach_Rider said:

Oooooh, this might be nice!

Abeedo said:

Shambo said:

"make enemies younger and easier to defeat". Infanticide, they call that.

DockEllisD said:

nice to finally have a "firm" date

Mach_Rider said:

I like the visuals on this one, but doesn't look like my type of game

Forgot about that one.

Abeedo said:

TMNT

WoomyNNYes said:

JHDK said:

This Indy showcase better step it up soon because so far everything besides OlliOlli looks awful

Dark-Luigi said:

Nintendoforlife said:

“Comedy”

BongoBongo said:

Title is on-point for this presentation

TheAwesomeBowser said:

Jacob1092 said:

Oh this one is great

GhostGeneration said:

Is this presentation a prank?

Dark-Luigi said:

Ah! This is a good one!

Later today? Kind of wish it launched 400 days from now

WoomyNNYes said:

No game?

I didn't get these were 400 real-life days

Abeedo said:

Looks interesting

WoomyNNYes said:

interesting

TheAwesomeBowser said:

2020 the game

ophone said:

Seufz means sigh in German. Perfect depiction.

Even the narration sounds bored

bozz said:

"You don't have to play it to see how it ends" what a sales pitch

GhostGeneration said:

2020: The Musical

Anti-Matter said:

Yawn...

Noble_Haltmann said:

in ReAl tImE???

I think most of the world just got done waiting 400 days inside without doing anything. Now we can relive it!

MorganWhoop said:

waiting: the game

DockEllisD said:

this trailer makes me sleepy

Dark-Luigi said:

Huh.

bozz said:

Longing... for something to happen

pass the time with extremely slow character walk

TheAwesomeBowser said:

I saw this on Steam once. Looks interesting

JHDK said:

This trailer is making me sleepy

BongoBongo said:

this game looks miserable - like the chap presenting it

BranJ0 said:

omg is this realtime

YoshiAngemon said:

What could you POSSIBLY want for Garfield Kart DLC, the Cast of U.S. Acres?

GhostGeneration said:

Wait....a game about WAITING?

virusnetwork said:

this looks depressing, i love it

Literal boredom simulator

Noble_Haltmann said:

Music sounds like Ori and the Blind Forest

Abeedo said:

I've heard of this game

lol

Waiting for Narrative

Masterchicken said:

dad?

Ganner said:

When I see games like that I just want someone to properly make another Skate or Die game...

Pacmanrace said:

Cmon Garfield Kart DLC!

Chunkboi79 said:

I'm gonna start saying oh knickers from now on

bozz said:

Is that a mace?

boatie said:

Nobody says "Oh knickers"

BongoBongo said:

very international showcase which is cool

YoshiAngemon said:

As if the Switch Joy Con Drift weren't bad enough.

Abeedo said:

Most indies can fit on mobile tbh

JHDK said:

@bozz exactly!

ophone said:

My gf is knitting a jumper in the colour of the backgrounds in this game.

GhostGeneration said:

@bozz Yep. :/

Chunkboi79 said:

@bozz I was just about to say that

boatie said:

"quirky sidequests"

bozz said:

These look fun but so far every one of these kind of seem like mobile games.

Dark-Luigi said:

Whoa. Very limber.

whoa!

Kochambra said:

I like the graphic style

everynowandben said:

Olli Olli ruined my PS$ controller, hahaha...

Pacmanrace said:

but with no graffiti

The first OlliOlli game was fun

WoomyNNYes said:

good looking game

@mjharper - They have to blur out brands in their rooms

Pacmanrace said:

Jet Set Radio

JHDK said:

I had fun with olliolli on 3ds

Abeedo said:

this looks good

Kochambra said:

Cool!

bozz said:

Oh another runner thing

BongoBongo said:

Olli Olli Olli Oy Oy Oy

DK-Fan said:

Why do Indie games only talk about story! feelings! and some other NON-GAME-AT-ALL stuff and they all look *** boring, pretentious and smug?

Chunkboi79 said:

where's that highly anticipated gex sequel?

What's blurred out back there?

WoomyNNYes said:

lets see it!

Jacob1092 said:

Yo, I just got here. Did I miss much?

Extreme Narrative Adventure!

YoshiAngemon said:

No, this is Patrick.

These artsy indie games are the most generic looking things

WoomyNNYes said:

not bmx

WOOAAH IS THIS THE SWITCH PRO REVEAL

Pacmanrace said:

Where's Mission in Snowdriftland?

Chunkboi79 said:

take it back

GhostGeneration said:

really losing me with this one.

BongoBongo said:

Baldo was a dream

Chunkboi79 said:

Baldo just vanished one day

Abeedo said:

I know the low poly style is overused, but it works

Who/what is Baldo?

boatie said:

zzzz

Masterchicken said:

emotions

WoomyNNYes said:

Ralizah, yeah, where Baldo?

@Shambo - I know, I'm dissapointed too.

Narrative Unleashed!

Abeedo said:

Story is intriguing

Man, where is Baldo?

BongoBongo said:

I'm British guvnah this is mental

WoomyNNYes said:

Don't trust guys with glowing eyes

Dark-Luigi said:

Hm?

Shambo said:

I didn't even hear "metroidvania roguelite soulslike" yet

Pacmanrace said:

No, not the guys who made sausage party! D:

BongoBongo said:

ha funny accents

BongoBongo said:

TheAwesomeBowser said:

YoshiAngemon said:

JHDK said:

He and Julia Roberts should start a giant mouth clib

GhostGeneration said:

@YoshiAngemon Yup.:/

Dark-Luigi said:

Maybe Silksong can be the "one last thing"?

Abeedo said:

Why all the negativity

Narrative's Edge

YoshiAngemon said:

It's gonna be one of THOSE days.

GhostGeneration said:

Narrative runner? Come on folks.

Ugh

Abeedo said:

It can look beautiful some times

GhostGeneration said:

Looks pretty, not quite my thing though.

Pacmanrace said:

boatie said:

She's hot

Sure, but first tell us something that isn't happening so we can forever hunt you down on the internet

Thank you @Tourtus

boatie said:

Lois Griffen for Smash

Anti-Matter said:

OMG... I almost late

WoomyNNYes said:

Pff, is Nintendo still pretending it has new games? (joke)

Masterchicken said:

It's likely possible that you may or may not have a general idea of the probability with a degree of confidence. Maybe.

Shambo said:

Now i have to go into hiding

1 minute!

Shambo is an insider!

Shambo said:

I could be exact: it's 50%, yes or no.

Noble_Haltmann said:

Fair enough xD

I'm afraid I can't be exact

between 0 and 100%

@echoplex Cuphead is considered Indie even though Microsoft was involved with it.

Noble_Haltmann said:

What do you think the chances are we get a new Celeste featuring the new character and mechanics seen in Celeste Classic 2?

Come on slow poke!

Do you think the Shadowman Remaster is considered as an indie release?

Masterchicken said:

SILKSONG!!

Grumblevolcano said:

5 minutes

Shambo said:

Brian does.

boatie said:

Does anybody else find Lois Griffen attractive??

or when the dreamcast mini or n64 mini come out

Grumblevolcano said:

It would be cool to get an update on the Axiom Verge update and Axiom Verge 2

boatie said:

De]k

MS7000 said:

I could go for carbonara now... damn it Alex.

Dark-Luigi said:

Omori.

BongoBongo said:

@AlexOlney mmmm sweet sweet emulsification

Kochambra said:

The crispier the bacon, the better the carbonara

AlexOlney said:

@BongoBongo on the contrary, the pancetta left a notable slick of grease whereas the bacon emulsified beautifully.

MetalMario said:

Hoping for Sports Story or Silksong

will nintendo put the 3d all stars on the switch for 20 for each game

Shambo said:

but my enemies closer

You would have to give us all carbonara to help you

Shambo said:

I'll keep my Switch close for that "demo available after the presentation".

BongoBongo said:

cos it had more fat in it probs

Where the heck are my car keys?

Did I leave the gas on?

Bear and Breakfast release date

Oh sorry. I didn't mean to jinx it hahah

everynowandben said:

Hoping for word on Baldo

gunvolt 3

everynowandben said:

it DID fail, hahaha.. I had to refresh the page

Coral Island. That kickstarter game hit the switch stretch goal. maybe a lil trailer to acknowledge it

***test failed***

everynowandben said:

Test

patbacknitro18 said:

How about a terrible mobile port with Eshop microtransactions!!!

Don't know if it qualifies as an indie, but more about Pocky & Rocky would be welcome.

Grumblevolcano said:

Switch Pro

Ooooh there was recently a game on kickstarter that's like Stardew but on a tropical island (forgot the name!) maybe that will show

patbacknitro18 said:

Yea but Cadence of Hyrule was announced during an Indie Direct

Untitled Cat Game

BongoBongo said:

Into the Breach 2: Once More Unto The Breach Dear Friends

yes

bozz said:

I just want a Sunless Skies release date.

Snowmobile Rugby! (It's like Rocket League, but less popular)

Shambo said:

But... Isn't Cadence of Hyrule indie AND Nintendo?

patbacknitro18 said:

Pretty sure Security Breach is a PS5 Exclusive ATM though

and i get the boat running

patbacknitro18 said:

I know its not gonna happen at all. But I hold out hope for a FNAF Security Breach port.

BongoBongo said:

Something by Lucas Pope (Papers Please and Obra Dinn guy) could be due out soon - he said he didnt want next game to take him too long and ROD was 2018

Oh, that's decent

roadrunner343 said:

I could go for a sequel to Refreshing Sideways Puzzle Ghost Hammer.

AlexOlney said:

20 mins I believe.

Lawn Mower Racing Ultimate

How long is this btw?

Oh, so Nintendo spiritual successors then.

patbacknitro18 said:

So, anybody hear about Vroom in the Night Sky 2 getting announced here?

Shambo said:

@AlexOlney thanks, I remember that "post", because the post is always late.

Silksong reeks of E3 to me to be honest

loganmills said:

I hope it's all new stuff we've never heard of

roadrunner343 said:

@GrailUK A little slow, but the Devolver Digital Expo game was called Devolverland. Heard it was interesting, never looked at it myself.

Maybe a Silksong release window

untitled cocco

Here's hoping for Sport's Story - not that I finished Golf Story but still

patbacknitro18 said:

Time is too confusing. We should just go back to sundails

ELDEN RING AND GENSHIN IMPACT LETS GOO

It Takes Two for switch... But it's EA published so not indie at all!

BongoBongo said:

Untilted Goose Sequel?

AlexOlney said:

@Shambo Ante Meridiem (AM) and Post Meridiem. 'post' always means 'after' 😉

Shambo said:

But apparently this means it's in 20 minutes, which is 18h where I live

Grumblevolcano said:

Aonuma will appear in the Indie World saying that there's no BotW 2 news

Cantankerous Dance Busters - where you play a grump old man trying to turn down the volume of some dance freaks!

i am still waiting on zelda 35th plans

Hello there lovely peeeeople

patbacknitro18 said:

I want a Pikmin title, but not a 3d game. Make it like, idk a 2d platformer maybe

zelda knights it is link in a shovel knight game

Heya Alex! Hope you are well And OMG how nice is it Tom is back!

Shambo said:

No matter how many formats they put the time in, I never understand, and never remember what "AM" is and what "PM".

BongoBongo said:

Mario but they are all robots

BongoBongo said:

Zelda in space

patbacknitro18 said:

Like the hyrule Music rythm game

patbacknitro18 said:

In all seriousness, I wonder ifwe will get a nintendo IP turned indie game here

Oh I don't know Mr Runner. But packing a venue by luring crowds to cos play events would make bank!

xbox game pass on switch

Psychonauts port shadow drop and announcement of the sequel coming to switch too (but doubt it!)

BongoBongo said:

Indie World Sim could be a good game - gameplay is you work at a fictional publisher similar to Devolver and you have to decide which games are goers

i think that will be on switch 2 at this rate

They need the money

roadrunner343 said:

Sim Expo? Didn't Devolver Digital do something similar? Forget what it was called.

Not really, but Microsoft turn up usually

no

patbacknitro18 said:

Does Metroid Prime 4 count as a small indie title?

(I actually like that idea!)

Sim Expo!

FroZtedFlakerZz said:

Don't get your hopes too high

roadrunner343 said:

Please be excited

ThomasBW84 said:

Yawn Simulator, in which you watch a 4 hour E3 conference

roadrunner343 said:

Anything Yacht Club would be fantastic. Or maybe an update on Hollow Knight Silksong.

FroZtedFlakerZz said:

vacuum BR whoever gets the most crumbs on the floor wins

Yooka Laylee Racing in the style of Diddy Kong Racing

shovel knight with link

roadrunner343 said:

Yawn? Sounds great XD

Maybe Playtonic show off their publisher games??? (although is that considered indie then?)

A sword swinging 2D platformer with a mid air dash? (yawn)

i got into the pool yesterday

BongoBongo said:

anything from Yacht Club Games (as developer not publisher) would be awesome

Hoping to see Baldo return!

FroZtedFlakerZz said:

Lol Twitch is screaming about Roblox

A game where you are just a head

A flight sim, but you are a migrating bird who has lost it's flock?

ThomasBW84 said:

There'll be at least one game where we think "how did THAT get picked by Nintendo", but I hope for some good 'uns!

Anyone have any predictions? Mr T said 'pain' but he's a bit mad.

Ryu_Niiyama said:

Guess I will have to get a new sd card.

Last time I was this early, I was queuing dor a day 1 Gamecube in Japan!
