Kotaku caught up with Image & Form CEO Brjann Siegurgeirsson for a look back on the original SteamWorld Dig as well as its sequel. While speaking with the site, Siegurgeirsson revealed that the first game has sold over one million copies collectively.
One reason that SteamWorld Dig did so well is Nintendo’s promotion of the game. Siegurgeirsson spoke about how having it featured in a Nintendo Direct a few years ago boosted visibility:

Super Mighty Power Man planned for Switch and 3DS
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News, Switch eShop | 4 Comments
Box Hedge Games has pulled back the curtain on an interesting-looking project lined up for Nintendo platforms. The developer is currently planning Super Mighty Power Man for both Switch and 3DS.
Super Mighty Power Man is a 2D action-platformer that takes some clear inspiration from Mega Man. Other prominent games and series like Castlevania, Duck Tales, Kirby, Super Mario Bros., and Shovel Knight also served as reference points. The team itself joined together in 2016 with co-founders Alessandro Di Meco and David Richier having previously contributed to games such as Test Drive Unlimited, Kinect Disneyland Adventure, and Assassin’s Creed.
We’re aware that Box Hedge is working on a Kickstarter for Super Mighty Power Man. We’ve reached out to the studio to clarify how that campaign will impact development, if at all.
Find more information about Super Mighty Power Man below, along with a couple of additional screenshots.

“KORG Gadget for Nintendo Switch” microsite now up
Posted on 7 years ago by Joshua in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
A few days ago, we learned that the music creation tool KORG Gadget is coming to the Switch in 2018. While KORG Gadget has found a niche on the DS and 3DS family as well as some Apple platforms, not much is known about the Switch release.
Maybe this will clear things up. A mini website has been released today specifically for Switch news updates. You can access that website here.
It is implied that the website will be updated as more news rolls out, but for now it’s pretty bare-bones. Either way, it is good to know that all Switch updates for this software will be collected in one place.
