    So weirdly enough Nintendo launched a surprise indie stream to showcase some of the indie titles that are coming to the Switch from this summer to next year. This was actually quite a good showcase showing off some really solid looking new games as well as some ports. But let's be real here, the biggest announcement is that Windjammers 2 is officially being made, Which should arrive at some point next year! Of course the original Windjammers is coming to the Switch as well for those to finally try out the greatest of that game. But enough about Windjammers, here is the video of the showcase and other game announcements:

    • 3 games have shadow dropped onto the Nintendo eShop right now. These games include Bad North, a RTS roguelite where you command soldiers to defend homes on islands against Vikings, a port of Prison Architect that includes its 2 expansions and upcoming DLC where you play as a prisoner and Morphie's Law, the team based shooter where the more a body part takes damage from a weapon, the bigger it gets.
