Mega Man-Style Roguelike '30XX' Gets A Last-Minute Delay On Nintendo Switch

I was gonna buy it on release in the first place, but to hear the dev admit they “f’ed it”…. That’s priceless and if I could buy the game twice I would!

@Dm9982
I mean... You could buy it on Steam AND Switch... XD

@Sirvant7 No gaming Pc or Steam Deck…. Though I could gift it!

Admitting your screw up takes guts.
Hope they get it released soon.

I wonder how sincere their apology is, since it was supposed to release on PS Store as well and hasnt. Effing up both processes at the same time?

If you guys want to play the best MM like platformer I think ever, get Gravity Circuit. No one is covering it, and it's basically MM but Mischief Makers. It's amazing.

@McBurn all it said was "consoles" on early access reveal and since only ever mentioned switch by name. PS an Xbox was never mentioned. There was no promise there man.

Not that it can't come down the line at a later date but as of now thats all thats been said.

Better delay it than gollum it. 👍

More companies cough game freak cough should be more patient in there development and eventually delay it instead of releasing a bug infected game.

@LikelySatan I was wondering if that was any good, I’ve got it on my wishlist. Thanks for the recommendation!

Nooooooooooooo!

I was so excited!!

But. . .I can wait.

I can wait, the first game was a banger 👌
Top marks for being accountable too!

This is how you handle stuff. Thanks Dev. Will buy it day one. Game looks like alot of fun.

I'm confused. Wasn't this already out? Or is it a sequel?

Hopefully it will be out soon. Been hyped for this all throughout this year.

@Tempestryke It’s been in open beta the past couple years on Steam. The predecessor, 20XX, is currently available.

@Wilforce Oh. My mistake

I hate to say it, but some of those animations are lifted straight from Megaman Zero :/

@Dm9982 it's incredible, and no one is covering it.

I already have it on steam but I'll gladly double dip on the switch version too eventually

@LikelySatan It's an absolutely excellent game - the first one ever where I've genuinely been compelled to play through a New Game+, and not just because it's fairly short. I have a few minor gripes with it, but as someone who's only briefly touched Mega Man 11 and has no other experience with Mega Man, I can thoroughly recommend the game to anyone (though it's $5 more on Switch with some occasional performance issues), not just Mega Man fans. I might pick up the first X and the Zero/ZX Legacy Collections just to scratch a similar itch, though. Game's that good

@PikaPhantom I played the Mega Man games as they came out, and had my fill by 3. The aggressive enemy respawn is pretty rough, and the formula got old for me. I still played through 8 and 9 though and enjoyed them. The lack of coverage for GC is actually bothering me. I've been trying to turn people on to it but not many people seem to care. It's strange. Especially with the Mischief Maker elements. It's crazy good.

@LikelySatan Yeah, it's unfortunately kind of flown under the radar. It has some strong critic reviews (an 89 on Metacritic) and a respectable amount of Steam user reviews, at least, but it feels like it should've garnered more attention. It does lack the memetic qualities of Pizza Tower and the pre-launch buildup to Dave the Diver, 2 of the more prominent indie releases this year (also with 89 Metascores, incidentally), but it's a shame that such an excellent game hasn't seen the success it deserves, even with a fair bit of buzz and solid pre-launch views on trailers and soundtrack uploads. Hopefully word of mouth picks up - I've been trying to spread it myself. Also have my fingers crossed that someone notable in Nintendo circles will prominently recommend the game, as that's worked wonders for some indies in the past (i.e. Arlo covering Bug Fables). Shesez of Boundary Break was praising it on Twitter, but that's the most I've seen

@PikaPhantom I love Arlo. Guy is super enthusiastic.
