Posted on 8 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.

NST helped out with Snipperclips’ development

Posted on 8 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.
