Earlier this year, Rainy Night Creations put Vaccine on the Wii U eShop. The game is now receiving a Switch port.
There are a few parties involved here. Rainy Night Creations is the original developer, and Ratalaika Games is handling the Switch port. Rainy Frog will be publishing Vaccine in Japan.
Speaking of Japan, right now a western release hasn’t been announced. It should come over eventually, but we’ll have to see who ends up publishing.

It won’t be much longer until Plantera DX hits the Switch eShop – at least in Japan. A listing added to the store today confirms a release date of June 8. The game will cost 500 yen.
We have these screenshots from the listing:

More Plantera DX details emerge, will release outside of Japan
Posted on 8 years ago by Zack in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
More details and screenshots have emerged regarding the recently announced Plantera DX for Switch, including a confirmation of a western release. Ratalaika Games will bring Plantera DX to the west “later down the line,” possibly as late as the 2017 holiday season. This version of the game is supposedly around three times larger than the 3DS version of the title. New content is included in this version of the game as well, such as new animals and characters, improved graphics and new music.
While the original wording was a bit vague, it seems that Plantera DX will only have limited support for the Switch in TV mode, as the focus on touch screen controls is still present in this version. The content added in Plantera DX is exclusive to the Switch version of the game, and will not be added to the 3DS or Wii U versions of the game.
While Plantera DX isn’t expected to release until the “holiday season” outside of Japan, the Japanese version of the game includes an English translation. If you don’t feel like waiting, you should have little trouble picking it up from the Japanese eShop when it’s released.
You can find new screenshots of the game in the gallery below.

Ratalakia Games brought Plantera to Wii U and 3DS earlier this year. The game is now making its way to Switch as well. Rainy Frog is releasing it in Japan as “Plantera DX”, but Ratalakia may choose to handle the western release.
Here’s a trailer:
For those who haven’t heard about Plantera previously, we have the following overview:
“In the world of Plantera you grow your own garden and breed plants and animals to earn coins with their produce. Use the coins to buy new plants and animals, and also special items and garden expansions. Watch everything grow, help planting and harvesting, buy new things, and defend your garden from sneaky magpies, rabbits, foxes, and wolves.

League of Evil isn’t the only upcoming title from Ratalakia Games. 0000 is also planned for the console in addition to 3DS. Ratalakia has other Switch ports lined up as well, which we’ll be hearing about later on.
0000 is a tough platformer packed with 100 handmade levels. Players will be leaping and dodging to “rhythmic, tense music inspired by a combination of 8-bit and modern electronic music.”

League of Evil heading to Switch

Update: We actually have some news about the Wii U version. Unfortunately, it has been cancelled.
Sadly nope, we're only doing 3DS & Switch atm, doing the entire online system for Wii U was to much of a trouble for the return we would get

Yeah, the reason it's coming to Switch instead of Wii U are the terrible delays we had when implementing all online modes hehe

Ratalaika Games has brought several games to Wii U and 3DS. Now the publisher is preparing its first title for Switch: League of Evil.
The news was teased on Twitter earlier today:
We want to share a small picture related our work! Press release later this week! Yes #LeagueOfEvil is going to #NintendoSwitch :P! pic.twitter.com/wnoftG7Mtv

You may recall that League of Evil was announced last year for Wii U and 3DS. Those versions haven’t made it out yet, as Ratalaika said it took some time to acquire the license for cross-play between Nintendo platforms and PC. In February, League of Evil was said to be hitting Wii U and 3DS “a little bit later on in the year”. It’s unclear what the status is currently, but we should be getting this Switch version at the very least.
