Ronnie Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 (edited) I’m still a bit confused if this is their rebranded twice a year showcase, I could swear we just had one and the next one is usually in March, but hey not complaining. Silksong??? Please please please Edited December 9, 2019 by Ronnie
Dufniall Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 King of Cards and Shovel Knight Showdown both release tomorrow, so they'll no doubt get mentioned. 1
S.C.G Posted December 9, 2019 Posted December 9, 2019 Still hoping for Cadence of Hyrule + Crypt of the Necrodancer physical Switch release double pack on one game card.

That would certainly be quite good. I kind of enjoyed Crypt of the Necrodancer. I might even doubledip. I will definitely double dip. Crypt of the Necrodancer is AMAZING! I'm hoping for the start of an eShop Christmas sale. 1

I so nearly bought them several times but even at the reduced price Cadence of Hyrule was still £15... while Crypt of the Necrodancer was still £17... If they were both on a game card it would probably cost just over £30 and that would then feel worth it to me, heck I'll go to £40 to have them both on a card.
Dog-amoto Posted December 10, 2019 Posted December 10, 2019 Sports Story!! Obviously excited for SoR4 and Gleamlight looked interesting despite it seemingly being a Hollow Knight clone.
drahkon Posted December 10, 2019 Posted December 10, 2019 Everyone who likes puzzle games needs to play The Talos Principle. Personally, this showcase didn't excite that much. Sports Story, The Survivalists and Dauntless were pretty much the only interesting games shown. The latter I've always wanted to try on my PS4 but Monster Hunter World scratched that itch. Will give it a go on my Switch later today.
S.C.G Posted December 10, 2019 Posted December 10, 2019 Nintendo Indie World 10/12/2019 Presentation Roundup Now up on the main site, the standard N-Europe Roundup which traditionally follows every live Nintendo-related presentation. Full press release, link to the embedded video and a couple of plugs for both upcoming episodes of our two podcasts which just might have some discussion about this. Personally, the Streets of Rage 4 trailer was the best bit for me but the One More Thing... at the end was pretty good.
MindFreak Posted December 10, 2019 Posted December 10, 2019 (edited) I enjoyed Axiom Verge very much when I played it some time ago so I'm really happy with the reveal of the sequel. I've previously heard about Talos Principle and it has got really great reviews so will definitely look more at that later on. Other than that, not much I really want now but perhaps when we get closer to release of some of the other games, my interest in them grows. Edited December 10, 2019 by MindFreak
Dufniall Posted December 10, 2019 Posted December 10, 2019 Nothing much for me this time, except Axiom Verge 2 but that seems to be quite far away still. I'm downloading Dauntless now as I want to check it out, but I'm afraid it won't stand up to the likes of Monster Hunter.
killthenet Posted December 10, 2019 Posted December 10, 2019 (edited) Reminded me that I still haven't bought the first Axiom Verge. Sports Story was probably the highlight for me but it was a pretty good presentation overall although I'm not really a fan of having so many developers introducing their games on camera, it's nice when you get the odd one but having six or seven in one video is a bit too much. Forgot about The Talos Principle, it definitely interests me but I didn't get on too well with The Witness so not sure i'll really like it Edited December 10, 2019 by killthenet

Just for clarification, Crypt of the Necrodancer gets crazy cheap during sales (I got mine for 2,50€). 1

Yeah, I've seen this game on sale loads of times @drahkon. I got it on Steam for less than a euro, but would definitely pick it up again on Switch for that lovely portable-ness.

Ronnie Posted December 11, 2019 Author Posted December 11, 2019 Thrilled to see Sports Story and Axiom Verge 2, both huge successes on Switch so I'm not surprised sequels announced. Survivalists looked cool and that interactive comic book, shades of Inside there. Great to see Nintendo continue to highlight and curate quality indie titles and show them off like this.
Nicktendo Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 I liked a lot of the stuff in that direct. But I won’t spoil it here... Listen to the podcast on Thursday to find out [emoji6] 1 1
Sméagol Posted December 11, 2019 Posted December 11, 2019 Apart from stuff allready known (Talos Principle surprise drop is cool, Streets of Rage still looks cool), a disappointing presentation. Few things I'm interested in (maybe Dreamchaser), and nothing that gets me hyped. Except Axiom Verge, that was a cool announcement (and a long wait). The Japanese got a different presentation.. Though apparently they're behing in western indies, most of it is stuff that's long been released over here.

It is, but performance is horrible (apparently the PS4 version isn't much better) and it's just not fun, in my opinion. Maybe if I didn't enjoy Monster Hunter World so much I'd like Dauntless more but as it is, the F2P game is just boring 1

It's like Monster Hunter but it's a very cheap and shoddy version of it. Just stick to Monster Hunter on your Switch or Monster Hunter World on Game Pass. 1
Glen-i Posted December 12, 2019 Posted December 12, 2019 You guys are making me want to play Mon Hun Generations again.
