[Let’s Talk] Indie World Showcase + Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase reactions
Posted on 9 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Let's Talk, Switch | 0 comments
Nintendo fans tend to go by the company’s patterns, but every now and then, the company throws a curveball. That’s exactly what happened this week. We’re generally used to getting a Nintendo Direct before the Tokyo Game Show in September, but we instead saw a new presentation to end August. On top of that, it was shown right after an Indie World Showcase. We’re not used to seeing back to back presentations from Nintendo, but again, you can’t always predict what the Big N will do.
There were so many games between the two presentations – over forty in fact – that we can’t possibly mention them all here. For the Indie World Showcase through, a big highlight was the announcement and release of Pizza Tower. Meanwhile, the Nintendo Direct: Partner Showcase featured Capcom Fighting Collection 2, Castlevania Dominus Collection, The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky the 1st, Atelier Yumia, Tales of Graces f Remastered, Tetris Forever, MySims: Cozy Bundle, Star Overdrive, and more.

Yakuza is finally heading to Switch for the first time. However, digital will be your only option – even in Japan. The good news is that SEGA seems to be pricing the game appropriately, and it will only cost $20.
