Anyone have some good tips for under the radar indie games? Please resist the urge to say Minecraft!

Minecraft has sold more over 100 million copies and is owned by one of the largest corporations on the planet. It's the furthest from "under the radar indie game" that a video game can get at this point.

hmm phsyical BoI used isnt a bad idea but also I feel like it's the type of game I should always have installed

that makes the price tag a bit less daunting

also i know its prob years away but I can't wait for SMT on Switch, currently playing SMTIVA and it is good

i'm loving the emphasis on specialized monsters rather than jack of all trades cuz yeah first game i always had everyone fully loaded

The game engine Nuclear Throne uses (Game Maker Studio) does not currently have a Switch exporter, and it was the first game where Vlambeer did all the ports themselves instead of paying someone to completely rebuild the game in another engine.

also, from soft needs to get on a Dark Souls I and II pack or release or something

I wonder if it could handle DS3? Lowering specs on that still leaves an impressive looking game so maybe

Much as I like the idea it seems like it's still 2 dudes working out of their house. Even with the pile of money I assume they got out of FTL they probably don't have it in them to make a Switch version :(

There are...or were a bunch of other similar ones but they're not showing up now, I vaguely recall reviews on one saying it damaged their Switch but :iiam:. Still need a power supply so if people actually got stuff damaged I imagine that may have been part of the problem (I'm guessing they also bought whatever cheapo power supply). Not sure what's going on with the other ones from before (that started crowd funding campaigns), but the newer stuff like this is half the price those were going for so uh, sucks to be them I guess.

The Nyko one costs more but comes with power and HDMI cables, but it's shipping October 31st according to that listing.

The fastsnail one apparently takes a month to show up too, so you might be better off just waiting for the "full dock plus charger from a fairly established and known-decent company" model

Yeah that too :v:. Looks like you can order from Amazon fulfillment and it should be in stock by next week, in theory. Or order now from China and get it god knows when in October/November.

Kinda disappointed Nyko made theirs so much bigger than the original one to add USB ports, but it's still a smallish flat block at least. Would've preferred the extra USB ports on the sides or front I guess, like rear one for ethernet with the other two for controllers. A bit concerned about the USB C port just seemingly sticking out beyond the surface though, wonder if it swivels down or if it's just fixed there.

Digital Foundry just put up a video saying 30 :(

...then pulled it. I’m guessing the embargo isn’t up just yet, but apparently it’s today at some point. I look forward to some gaming journalists showing they can’t tell the difference between 30 and 60fps. Although at this point I’m guessing they’ll all just reference Digital Foundry.

Was the digital foundry video looking at the direct footage? Or was it also from this event? The article seems clear in that they think it was 60 fps and super smooth.

As for 30 vs 60 fps, yeah it would be sad but there's already so many people out there who claim they can't even see the difference (even after I showed them this site) that I'm not surprised anymore when people can't tell, especially for console players.

edit: random reddit comment says embargo is supposed to be lifted today, so maybe these articles/videos jumped the gun a day early
