Pretty sure that it was announced that Shovel Knight was delayed by a few weeks.

Yep--this is an older thread from 2/14. (Shovel Knight was indeed delayed, though.)

Ouch at 3DS list. Vita is flooding with indie titles while 3DS only gets games from loyal guys like Renegade kid and Wayforward (Shovel Knight is great too). Absence of Binding of Isaac, FEZ and Hotline Miami 2 is stupid, Nintendo have to pursue indie developers to make games for 3DS just like Sony do.

Sony pays or funds those games to keep the attention on them for a while, atleast for now.

Yeah, sadly.

What's the word on Ittle Dew though? I'd been waiting on Wii U over PC.

They do, and that's exactly what Nintendo need to do too. Pay for more games on the system. I believe that Fish guy, creator of FEZ, didn't port the game to Nintendo systems because Nintendo didn't answer his calls. They need to be more responsive. They need to fight for exclusives. They may refuse to compete with other hardware companies but in real life there IS a competition and they're in it.

I'd love to know too. They said it was done in something like October, and they were just waiting on Unity's Wii U support to leave beta. Supposedly Wii U support just went final these past few weeks, so what's going on I don't know.

I read this title as Nintendo to release games for Windows lol !

Nintendo's corporate Q1:

April - June


Calendar Q1:

January - March


Nintendo is probably referencing the Calendar Q1 here.

When is the next quarterly financial meeting Aqua ?.

I don't know anything about those games. I don't think I'm interested either.

 

[maxcriden]

Pretty crazy that almost none of these games have come out yet. I hope we get an updated release schedule soon.

 

[YannEA]

Only Scram Kitty and Armillo (timed exclusive) I think.

Armillo is a 3 month exclusive (maybe more) we haven't totally decided yet ...

I'm really psyched for your game. Nintendo seems to be very shy at the moment about updated release dates. Is there a new tentative eShop release date at this time? Thanks!

 

[YannEA]

We might see Armillo in EU on the same day as NA:

Slim chance... But still a chance

I think you're right...
