The latest Indie World Showcase took place this week with all sorts of news and announcements for games on Switch. Over 20 titles saw some screen time.
In terms of totally new reveals for Switch, we heard about games like Rift of the NecroDancer, Little Kitty Big City, Animal Well, and Escape Academy: The Complete Edition. There were some typical shadowdrops as well – specifically Teslagrad 2 and Teslagrad Remastered, Five Nights at Freddy’s: Security Breach, and Shadows Over Loathing. Lots of release date news went around as well, with Bomb Rush Cyberfunk, Mineko’s Night Market, and Oxenfree II nailing down their launch timing.

The Super Mario Bros. Movie has been out for a little over a week now, and we want to hear your impressions.
This was a big deal for Nintendo as one of its first real cracks at cinema since the live-action Mario film many, many years ago. There was a lot of pressure to get it right, and while some of the reviews have been mixed, it’s already proven to be a huge success.
If you’ve been able to check out The Super Mario Bros. Movie, what’d you think of it? Share your thoughts with us in the comments.

[Let’s Talk] Are you sold on Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom?
Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Let's Talk, Switch | 0 comments
Less than two months before the game’s launch, Nintendo finally provided its longest look yet at The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom this week. Eiji Aonuma, the series’ producer, showed off the title with about ten minutes of footage. We were treated to footage of Link’s new abilities, the sky islands, and more.
There are probably many fans out there who were on board with Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom when it was first announced in 2019. However, there are also a good chunk of fans that have probably maintained some skepticism. Perhaps after this week’s gameplay video, some folks will feel more strongly one way or another.
What side of the fence are you sitting on? Are you primed and ready for the May 12 launch? Or do you need to see more before you’re on board? Let us know in the comments.

[Let’s Talk] February 2023 Pokemon Presents reactions
Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Let's Talk, Switch | 0 comments
Pokemon Day happened this week, and alongside that a new Pokemon Presents presentation was delivered. It contained a few announcements and a bunch of news about the franchise as a whole.
Probably the biggest reveal – which has been expected – is that Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet are getting new DLC. We don’t actually know too much currently, but it’ll be split into two parts. New Pokemon and a ton of returning creatures are coming. The first part has players going on a fieldtrip to Kitakami while the second features an adventure at Blueberry Academy as an exchange student.
The February 2023 Pokemon Presents did have other news as well, such as the return of Pokemon Sleep, Pokemon Concierge show from Netflix, and more. You can read the full recap here.
So what’d you think of the February 2023 Pokemon Presents? What are your initial thoughts on the Pokemon Scarlet / Violet DLC? Let us know in the comments.

After years of rumors and speculation, Metroid Prime Remastered was unveiled during a Nintendo Direct last week. Even better, you can play it right now by picking it up from the eShop. The physical version will also be in stores very soon.
Metroid Prime Remastered obviously isn’t a new game, but some of you might be playing it for the first time. We’re also sure that some of you only played it back on the GameCube and haven’t revisited it until now.
