Ahh damn, I'll either be at work or in the middle of a job interview elsewhere. I'll have to watch it a few hours after the fact.

Hoping for a Stardew and Rocket League release dates (despite both having come out in the past two weeks saying they can't commit to a day)

Stardew, Golf Story, Owlboy, Yooka-Laylee, Hollow Knight, Rocket League...oh man. I can't remember the last time I was so excited for so many indie games. Hope we're getting release dates soon for most of these.

Hoping for Stardew and Golf Story, since those both had "Summer" windows mentioned.

Steamworld Dig 2 also. And the Mutant Mudds port should be good as well, especially considering I only played the iOS version.

The last Nindies showcase was good so I'm excited. I can't help but be a bit disappointed that it's not a direct though.
 
I have no specific indie games I'm looking forward to right now on Switch, but I still hope there will be some that excite me :)

Pretty sure Yooka-Laylee will be shown, as well as Stardew Valley and Rocket League, of course.
 
So is this going to be mostly new announcements, or is this also going to show the games that were already announced but with new release dates?

Personally hoping for a YIIK release date, a Pocket Rumble release date (finally), and maybe a Cosmic Star Heroine announcement. Anything else would be icing on the cake, and I'm sure we're bound to hear some cool surprises.

Considering the line up we've had on switch so far, it will definitely be fun to see what the Indies will have.
 
I have been waiting for this. Glad it is Wednesday before I am heading out on vacation. I almost feel the need to get snacks in preaparation for this.

Stardew Valley and Golf Story are the two games I want to hear about the most.

I assume there will be announcements that day, and then gameplay on the Nindies@Night the next day.

Yes, that would make sense.

I guess they will not do that much coverage of games that has already been covered, unless they have a release date.

So here's my no-brainer prediction: Steamworld Dig 2 release date. At Gamescom, Brjann Sigurgeirsson at Image and Form said it would release "very very very soon", and he knows what the release date is.

I think the Switch is a brilliant indie machine so far. This will be fun!

I'm interested in Switch versions of games like Axiom Verge, Tumbleweed Park, Bloodstained, maybe Rime... I hope they give us some new information...

A few days ago, the Chucklefish blog talked about further delays for Pocket Rumble (and Wargroove).

Hey thanks a lot weather men

You don't think it's silly calling it a Summer Showcase when it's end of summer and it's full of games that won't release in the summer?

Right

That was my point

Now get back to checking your calendars

I mean, it's a bunch of games they're showing off while it's still summer, so I'm not sure where the hang-up is coming from.

See NintendoGAF asked for a new Nindies Direct and now we're getting it! lol

I think Yooka Laylee, Hollow Knight, and Stardew Valley release dates are locks. Looking forward to a few surprises :)

This is cool and all

But was hoping for a full ND, with release dates for FE Warriors in NA it comes out in a month in Japan and less then two months in Europe

Also Xenoblade 2, Rocket league and Skyrim release dates
 
The last one was great, I just hope we get solid release dates on things. Were still missing a lot of games that were revealed in the first one.
