The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth

Here’s some more screenshots for The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth on Nintendo Switch, from the official gamepage:

The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth (Switch – eShop) comes out on March 17th in North America, and later this month in Europe.

Shakedown Hawaii

Here’s the latest gameplay clip for Shakedown Hawaii, which shows that the game features something really nice… fully destructible environments!

Shakedown Hawaii (Switch – eShop) will be released this Spring in Europe and North America. The Nintendo 3DS version will follow at a later date.

N++ Ultimate Edition

Could N++ Ultimate Edition be coming to the Nintendo Switch later down the line? That’s certainly what the developers are suggesting in the latest blog post on their website:

While we’re at it, why not a quick update on the future in general? We’re hoping to bring N++ to more platforms, specifically the Xbox One and the Nintendo Switch. In a perfect world, we’d love to bring it to the PSVita as well.

 

With the limited resources we have, we’re not going to be able to do everything we would like to, but we’re determined to keep supporting N++ and bringing it to as many players as we can, because — especially with the Ultimate update — this is the best game we’ve ever made, and more people deserve to know about it!

PAX East 2017

Headed to PAX East 2017 this week-end? If yes, here’s the list of third-party Nintendo Switch games you will be able to check out at the show (with most of them being indie titles):
