Josh64 Posted May 5, 2021 Posted May 5, 2021 This looks so great! I'm massively interested - gimme that dedicated direct, Nintendo!
S.C.G Posted May 6, 2021 Posted May 6, 2021 Game Builder Garage announced for Nintendo Switch, out on June 11th Now up on the main page. Full press release and video embed. - - - - - Nobody - "We haven't had a new game announcement in a while..." Nintendo - "Oh, here's this Game Maker software, it's out in a month, enjoy!" Clearly Nintendo is expecting us all to make our own games now in the "droughts" between major game releases. Oh well, it's good to have options. 1
Dcubed Posted May 6, 2021 Posted May 6, 2021 (edited) So they've basically taken the Game Maker part of Labo VR, fleshed it out, and spun it off as its own game? Cool! Edit: USB mouse support!? Well that's a first for Nintendo! (Ok, not talking about Mario Paint/Artist here, smart arse!) Edited May 6, 2021 by Dcubed 1

Cube Posted May 6, 2021 Posted May 6, 2021 On the Nintendo website, there's and asterisk after the share with friends thing. I suspect that they'll completely ruin the community aspect of this by locking it behind a subscription, like Mario Maker 2 Edit: this page makes it clear that sharing is locked behind a subscription: https://www.nintendo.co.uk/Games/Nintendo-Switch-download-software/Game-Builder-Garage-1964648.html

Map Posted May 6, 2021 Posted May 6, 2021 A game creation tool for the switch As if Dreams doesn’t take up all my spare time already. 2
WackerJr Posted May 7, 2021 Posted May 7, 2021 Well I didn’t see this coming! The variety towards the end of the trailer really has me interested. I guess ultimately how easy will this be & how much leniency will the player have to create their own game from it? What age are they aiming this at? Lots of questions, but I’m excited by this!
Hero-of-Time Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 I see Europe isn’t getting a physical release of the game but everywhere else is. Granted, the game is far more suited to being a digital game but it still annoys me when we get screwed over like this. 1 1

I think this might well be the first time that we’ve actually missed out on a physical release compared to the US! (Aside from NES Remix Pack on Wii U)
MindFreak Posted May 10, 2021 Posted May 10, 2021 If I recall correctly, Capcom had done it a few times in the past as well. But yeah, it's a weird decision.
RedShell Posted June 7, 2021 Posted June 7, 2021 So, not long to go for this now. Who here at N-E is planning some game building?

RedShell Posted June 11, 2021 Posted June 11, 2021 Yeah, the localisation seems top-notch in this. And the fact the ”N-E logo” Nodon is portrayed as a miserable old fart is bloody hilarious. 1
Ashley Posted June 11, 2021 Posted June 11, 2021 Would be interested to see what people think of this. Looking at game devs on Twitter the introductory tutorials are a slog (and doesn't actually teach anything).

BowserBasher Posted June 11, 2021 Posted June 11, 2021 I’d love to get this but I feel that I’d be bored of it within a few days. Kinda like Labo. I love the idea but I think I’m more interested in what other people are going to come up with (which will be way more interesting and amazing than what I would) than sticking to it to make stuff. And as it sounds like you might only be able to swap things with friends I don’t think I’ll get much out of it myself.
LazyBoy Posted June 11, 2021 Posted June 11, 2021 I want to get a flavour of how much you can actually do with this before I dive in, so I'll wait to see some other user creations.
