Switch eShop

A listing on the European Switch eShop shows that Conga Master Party! is heading to Switch. It could even be available as early as this week.

Conga Master Party! originally debuted last year as simply Conga Master. As you would expect, the game is all about forming conga lines. You’ll try to make as long a line as you can by picking up people on the dance floor. This new version has two exclusive Switch multiplayer modes plus support for amiibo that can unlock “special cosplay costumes”.

Below is a more comprehensive overview:

Qubic Games announced today on Twitter a release date for Robonauts, the gravity-switching arcade shooter. It is going to release on September 15 in North America.

A European release date for Robonauts has not yet been confirmed.

The folks over at Gamasutra recently talked to several indie developers about the Switch – about what’s like to develop for the system, how Nintendo got into contact with them, and so on. One of the developers they interviewed was Omar Cornut from Lizardcube, the team responsible for Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap. It seems the game did quite well on the Switch – Cornut said that they sold “more copies of Wonder Boy on the Switch than the three other platforms we released on combined”. Definitely a sign of a smaller games library and thus more exposure for smaller titles, but good news nonetheless for developers and Nintendo alike.

Squareboy vs Bullies: Arena Edition is in the works for Switch and 3DS, Ratalakia Games has confirmed.

Creator Rohan Narang originally published Squareboy vs Bullies in 2015. Here’s the general premise:

Squareboy vs Bullies is an old school beat ’em up game. Those bullies think they can beat up anyone smaller than them and do anything they like. It is time for Squareboy to stand up for himself and show the bullies that he will not be pushed around any more! With your help Squareboy must teach the Bullies the hard way that bullying is wrong!

For the new “Arena Edition” on Switch, Ratalakia Games is including an exclusive co-op mode. Below is a brief look at that in action:

The eShop is currently listing a new game for both Switch. From Petite Games and Ratalakia Games, 36 Fragments of Midnight is currently on track for next week. The European eShop lists the release for September 14.

Here’s an overview:

Your task is to find them, and take them back, but it won’t be easy. In this procedurally generated platform game, you have to avoid deadly lasers, circular saws and spikes to collect all the Fragments, to get their greatest gift. Do you have what it takes to collect all?

Starbreeze, the studio currently working on bringing Payday 2 to Switch, has announced another, somewhat more random title for the system. Geminose: Animal Popstars will be “premiering exclusively” on Switch.
