Inversus Deluxe is doing very well on Switch. Hypersect told its fans on Twitter that the Switch version has already sold more copies than the Steam version. Thing is, the Switch edition has been around for ten weeks, while the Steam release popped up over a year ago.
Here’s the tweet in question:
After being out for 10 weeks on #NintendoSwitch, INVERSUS has sold more copies than it has in over a year on Steam! (and it has been through multiple large winter/summer/etc sales on Steam)

Hypersect also indicated that the Switch version of Inversus Deluxe is quickly catching up to the PlayStation 4 version, which is also more than a year old:
PS4 has also been out for a year and did far better than PC. Switch is on trajectory to overtake but not there yet. Xbox is least populated atm.

Runner3 will be on Switch towards the start of 2018. When it does release, it won’t just be an eShop title. Nicalis announced a partnership with Choice Provisions today that will bring fans a physical version.
You’ll be able to find Runner3 on store shelves in Q1 2018. The physical version will be priced at $39.99. Given Nicalis’ past, it’ll probably come with some goodies other than just the game on a cartridge.
