On March 3rd, 2017, with the release of the Nintendo Switch, players around the world can once again experience three classic games, re-united on a fantastic new console from Nintendo:

• Re-discover 2D BOY's beautiful and surprising World of Goo!
• Re-ignite the dangerous and uplifting adventure in Little Inferno!
• Re-engineer your corporate ascent in Human Resource Machine!
• And for the first time ever, all three games will come bundled with their full original soundtracks.

(March 3rd is also Nintendo Switch's launch date. )

 

[Cartho]

Aaaahhh World of Goo was awesome.

 

[Platy]

I hope they support touch controls ! =D

 

[Skittzo0413]

And the list continues to grow. Maybe Nintendo should send out an official list sometime in the next month?

 

[BrokenFiction]

Hey, I've been wanting to play Human Resource Machine. Nice.

 

[GulAtiCa]

YES! YES! YES!

Easily my favorite games of the Wii / Wii U eShop era.

 

[CypherSignal]

Kind of interesting that World of Goo came out for the Wii, not the Wii U, and then to Switch.

 

[Oregano]

Geeze. That launch lineup is filling up quick.

Good to see indies are taking to Switch as well.

 

[Gigarator]

I hope they support touch controls ! =D

Well World of Goo would be pretty shite to control otherwise, so I think it's a safe bet.

 

[sir_bumble_bee]

Geeze. That launch lineup is filling up quick.

Good to see indies are taking to Switch as well.

I fully expect strong indie and JP 3rd party support for the Switch

 

[Mpl90]

Geeze. That launch lineup is filling up quick.

Good to see indies are taking to Switch as well.

I'm seriously suspecting that this is a combination of Nintendo taking the approach of "Did you see this? Well, guess what, there's MUCH MORE!" and third parties (mostly indies) not completely sure about when they could release games as of a few days ago.

 

[VariantX]

I'd like to know when did Indie's get dev kits? I feel there might be quite a few more games available at launch than what was announced than what was announced at the event.

 

[kevin1025]

Wasn't Little Inferno a Wii U launch game, as well?

 

[Ondore]

Are they being sold separately or is there a bundle?

 

[wild wild rice]

Never played any but I've been curious about them.

 

[frankie_baby]

Little inferno is a game everyone should own, i bought it at Wii U launch and I'll be buying at switch launch too

 

[jon bones]

Portable Indie gaming + Nintendo first party.

What a time to be alive.

 

[phanphare]

Wasn't Little Inferno a Wii U launch game, as well?

yeah it was

 

[cw_sasuke]

Perfect fit.

 

[Brazil]

World of Goo, the first indie game I tried out (and loved) back on WiiWare. One of my all-time favorites.

Definitely picking that up just for kicks.

 

[Dark Cloud]

Wow this indie lineup continues and it's for launch! Very nice.

This is the machine most of us knew it would be.

Wii U + 3DS first party (still to be seen), indies, Vita games and some nice Japanese third party support with western third party sprinkled here and there.

 

[El Pescado]

Yes! Buying all three Day 1! I love all of these games.

 

[frankie_baby]

Wasn't Little Inferno a Wii U launch game, as well?

Yes it was

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

 

[TheMagician]

I'll buy World of Goo.

 

[Gleethor]

Day 1

 

[Anarky]

Poor vita. The one big thing it had going for it was being known as the portable indie machine and Switch is just up and snatching that title away from it

 

[frankie_baby]

I'd like to know when did Indie's get dev kits? I feel there might be quite a few more games available at launch than what was announced than what was announced at the event.

I'd imagine only the ones with a very close relationship with nintendo have them yet

 

[Oregano]

I fully expect strong indie and JP 3rd party support for the Switch

JP 3rd Parties didn't support Wii U very well but Switch seems to be starting a little bit stronger.

I'm seriously suspecting that this is a combination of Nintendo taking the approach of "Did you see this? Well, guess what, there's MUCH MORE!" and third parties (mostly indies) not completely sure about when they could release games as of a few days ago.

Yeah there's definitely an element of that. Wonder if we'll see some bigger devs announce games soon.

Wii U + 3DS first party (still to be seen), indies, Vita games and some nice Japanese third party support with western third party sprinkled here and there.

aka all of the games that I typically find myself interested in all under one roof

 

[Jonneh3003]

There may not be many AAA releases but I'll be spending so much on the eShop.

Also three other games for launch day, why in the name of frick didn't Nintendo announce a launch lineup at the event. We've been going off that silly grid they keep sharing on social media which hardly has anything.

 

[HylianTom]

World of Goo is superb. I'm incredibly tempted to double-dip on it. Worth it for the soundtrack alone.

 

[wild wild rice]

Portable Indie gaming + Nintendo first party.

What a time to be alive.

Get some of those Nintendo funded and published niche games like Bayonetta, sin & punishment, wonderful 101, etc and we're golden.

 

[trutrutru]

People really rejoicing over ports still?

 

[Brazil]

People really rejoicing over ports still?

Welcome to the games industry.

 

[VegaShinra]

Little Inferno is one of the finest Wii U eShop games. Probably won't double-dip on that, but World of Goo will be mine.

 

[Gaspard]

World of Goo with a touchscreen is awesome.

 

[GiantBreadbug]

People really rejoicing over ports still?

People really shitpost about people enjoying videogames still?

I'll be buying all three. Amazing developer. Never played Human Resource Machine but the other two I loooooved on Wii and Wii U.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Can't be a Switch thread without negativity...
If they/I do, what's it to you???

 

[NOLA_Gaffer]

Kind of interesting that World of Goo came out for the Wii, not the Wii U, and then to Switch.

Well, World of Goo was still playable on the Wii U, though that's not the case with the Switch for obvious reasons.

 

[Glix]

World of Goo was so great.

 

[axisofweevils]

The Day 1 line up looks pretty good now.

 

[abstract alien]

World of Goo is such an amazing game.

 

[Oregano]

I'd imagine only the ones with a very close relationship with nintendo have them yet

A bunch of Wii U devs have all said that "after talking to Nintendo" they're ditching Wii U for Switch so I think Nintendo certainly encouraging it.

 

[mocolostrocolos]

Little Inferno was... Weird.

Didn't play the others.

 

[L.O.R.D]

i hope they are not expansive as other switch ports.

 

[Dark Cloud]

Since when is it a problem for people to be excited to play video games? Jesus Christ man. People always talk about double dipping and tripling dipping for Steam, PS4, 3DS and every system ever. Why is it a problem for you if people enjoy playing these games again and some people haven't even played these games.

 

[Makonero]

Never got to play World of Goo...looks like I have another game to get on launch day!

 

[ZSaberLink]
