Runner3, Thumper will support HD Rumble
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 3 Comments
Two indie Switch games announced for the platform within the past few days should be making use of HD Rumble.
First up, Choice Provisions indicated during a live stream that the feature will be used in Runner3. Making it an exclusive shows “how confident we are in the system.”
Much like Runner3, Thumper will also have HD Rumble. The game’s developer also said that it should run at 60 FPS.
@im_jacobf naturally.

NST helped out with Snipperclips’ development
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 6 Comments
NST is perhaps best known for the Mario vs. Donkey Kong series at this point. Interestingly though, the studio also helped out SFB Games with development.
NST worked on level design, UI design, audio, and co-production. Since SF Games isn’t the biggest company out there, it made sense for the two teams to collaborate.

Shin’en has revealed that the studio is developing a new project. “We are already working on a new game, but we can’t say more for the moment,” the company stated in an interview with German outlet Nintendo-Online.
Shin’en just wrapped up FAST RMX for Switch. Despite that, the small team has moved on to something new already. Although platforms are unconfirmed, a release on Switch is probably a safe bet.
First FAST RMX update in the works
