Nintendo’s Latest Indie World Showcase Lays Out Plans for 2021

Fans of independent games rejoice, yesterday Nintendo released a ton of new information about the upcoming independent games for the Switch. There’s a long list of games, so there’s bound to be at least one or two interesting titles for everyone.

Nintendo hosted a livestream of the latest in their series of Indie World Showcases. You can check out the video here, which is just over twenty minutes long. There was a lot to be excited about, from a remake of the classic Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles arcade game, to the latest from publisher Annapurna Interactive, well known for the game What Remains of Edith Finch.

There were a few games from the list that are out now, and one with a playable demo. But most games won’t arrive on the Switch until sometime later this year.
