When it was first known as NX, Tribute Games mentioned having interest in bringing Flinthook to Switch. Nothing has changed since then.
On Twitter, Tribute Games told one fan that the team would “love” to release its new game on Switch. The message reads:
@CombatCat13 We'd love to port in onto Switch!

Thanks to Matt M for the tip.
On Thursday, Booty Diver is heading to the North American Wii U eShop. Have a look at the launch trailer below.
During a Twitch stream, Minecraft: Nintendo Switch Edition was briefly shown with off-screen footage. Some details about the upcoming version were shared as well.
One concern players may have relates to worlds from the Wii U version. If you created content on that platform, you’ll be happy to hear that the team is worked on a way to transfer worlds over to Switch. Transfers won’t be ready for launch next month, but it sounds like it will be happening at some point.
