I bet he didn't say that with a straight face.

@Aneira Sold Out will be the distributors on behalf of Chucklefish - they're also distributors for physical releases from Team17, Rebellion and Double Eleven - so I'd imagine this one will be coming to retail.

@biglittlejake Yes - Mat Hoffman's Pro BMX (2 games), Kelly Slater's Pro Surfer, Shaun Palmer's Pro Snowboarder and Wakeboarding Unleashed featuring Shaun Murray.

@sabrewing Piko Interactive hold the IP rights for Radical Rex, they published a Windows port of the SNES version on Steam earlier this year.

@Brianst0rm Excitebike and VS. Excitebike are both on there.

@tseliot Spent several months snooping as usual.

BATH TIME!

Oh wait, that's just the NES version...

@KBuckley27 Nintendo publish the Pokémon games. TOWN will be self-published by Game Freak.

The list of third-party titles also reveals PC Building Simulator is coming to the Switch...

@Shambo It's on the European eShop now.

GIMME GIMME GIMMEEEEEE!!!!

@SpacedDuck Why not Theme Park proper, as based on the PC version?

Yep, saw them both in GAME at the Arndale in Manchester today.

Engine Software are handling the port. The Dutch studio has worked with Bandai Namco in the past, they were responsible for the Switch port of Little Nightmares.

@liljmoore How come Nintendo never brought GameCube games to the Wii U? Is it hard to emulate, like the Sega Saturn?

Phantasy Star Online 2 coming west in 2020.

The trailer mentioned cross-play...

Gears 5... it has Terminators!!!

Minecraft Dungeons confirmed for Switch. Coming 2020.

Double Fine Productions now part of Xbox Game Studios. Guess this rules out any chance of Psychonauts on Switch...

Psychonauts 2 does look interesting though.

The first stretch goal target has now been reached - this will allow the developers to implement a unified cross-region cross-platform leaderboard.

Doug Bowser's profile now reads as follows:

"President at Nintendo of America. Original Donkey Kong Arcade Master. Views are mine (as are the Goombas, Koopa Troopa...)."

Alright then, I'll just wait for Nintendo to release a new Mario Strikers or Sega to do a HD remake of Sega Soccer Slam.

That title sounds like a pun on a classic 80s film, or was that inconceivable?

Here's a manual from Nintendo (with the code) from the manuals section for the NES Classic Mini:
https://www.nintendo.co.jp/clv/manuals/en/pdf/CLV-P-NAAZE_en.pdf

Here's a reproduction of the physical manual complete with an unaltered letter (so no code):
https://www.nintendo.co.jp/clv/manuals/en/pdf/CLV-P-NAAZE.pdf

Having done that, even I have to admit that Nintendo really dropped a clanger with this one.

Only open to residents of the USA...

@AlienigenX "My name is Zweig."

Crapcom still dangling carrots?

@electrolite77 Wonder how many Big Ant staff worked at Melbourne House/Beam Software back in the day...

@Spoony_Tech It looks more like it channels Sega Soccer Slam than Super Mario Strikers. Not that that's a bad thing, Sega Soccer Slam was a fun little game.

24th May in Europe. http://www.ateliergames.eu/lulua/

Chris "Cuddly Crix" Yates left the games industry altogether upon the closure of Sensible Software and the sale of its assets to Codemasters, and has declined to contribute to a recent book on the history of the studio (to which Jon "Jovial Jops" Hare has contributed immensely), so the chance these original files still exist will be incredibly slim at best.

I was playing this earlier, and my sister remarked how it looked like Habbo Hotel. Oh bobba.

@kobalt They might come as DLC. Sucks that they'd be behind a paywall though.

@klingki I give it a solid 7/10. Best played in small doses so you don't burn through the single player campaign in a few days.

Finally got Super Smash Bros. Ultimate!

Parodius, Plok, Prince of Persia, Smash Tennis (in lieu of Super Tennis) and Zombies Ate My Neighbours.

@asmi8803 Doubt it. (see Pixar vs. DMA Design)

@BanjoPickles Oh of course! https://youtu.be/PNlURqgNdjg?t=8005

@BanjoPickles What are the Mega/Sega CD re-releases? I'd imagine Night Trap is one of them.

@NewAdvent UK Prices:

GensokyoDefenders: £17.99
Starman: £7.19
OkunoKA: £10.99 (Demo available)
Conduct Together!: £17.99
Viviette: £9.99

@XenoShaun According to the RCTAdventures Twitter page, it's coming to UK & Ireland on 6th December.

Codemasters are the last of the original Nintendo Switch Partners from that infographic of October 2016 (https://mms.businesswire.com/media/20161020005938/en/550862/5/NX_Partners.jpg) to announce any titles for the system.

Forever a cheating winker.

To answer the question...

Neigh. 🐴

So that's what happened to Dusty Bin after 3-2-1 got cancelled! He became sentient and tried to kill Ted Rogers!

@MischiefMaker Dexter was ill-suited to the show. He admitted he had no interest in gaming and was too in-yer-face for his own good.

@Gerald @beazlen1 Digitiser's coming back as a YouTube show! There was a successful Kickstarter to fund it, and it was recorded back in the summer. Mr. Biffo is at the helm, with regular co-hosts Larry Bundy Jr, Octav1us Kitten, Gameplay Jenny and Paul Gannon (of Cheapshow and Barshens). Stuart Ashen, Barry Lewis, Kim Justice, Steve McNeil (from Go 8 Bit) and Nostalgia Nerd are among the guests. Eli Silverman (also of Cheapshow and Barshens) also makes appearances throughout the series.

Episode 1 coming this Sunday!

Nah, I'll stick with Digitiser, thanks!

@shaneoh He should see a doctor about that.

If there are any ex-Blade Interactive staff working on this then there's every chance the Switch may get a decent cue sports game.

@cyrus_zuo That's European platformers for you - usually collectathons.
