Too bad the Vita's spirit couldn't give us the same glorious Dpad.

Preach. I want an alternate set of Joy-Con with that D-Pad on the left and six buttons on the right - for fighting games, but it would also be a nice replacement road for many other titles.

Interesting. So long ago ?

He apparently recorded it 24 hours after his first baby, and his firstborn arrived on August 10, according to his tweets.

EDIT: And it's also kind of interesting to see how the Chucklefish tweets related to Stardew Valley/Switch relates to this. The first teaser screenshot of SV/Switch was tweeted 1 day before the recording. The announcement that it has been sent to Nintendo for approval was tweeted 1 day before the Nindie Direct.

To be fair this does not mean much ... it only means the live action parts were recorded earlier. voice overs can be recorded later and "here is an exciting new game coming to switch" parts can be edited to anything later

Yeah lots of interesting stuff and coincidence with Chucklefish.

Yeah that's true.
 
I need to see something that I can't already buy on the PS Store for a fraction of the price. Whether it's an exclusive or a game that is 100% ideal for portable play, like a puzzle game or something.

I hope they will say this line.

"Hollow knight will be available.....after this direct"

I really doubt this will happen.

I am setting my expectations to January 2018.

Steamworld dig 2 might surprise us though. It opened February Showcase, so I hope they are really close to launch it.
 
I'm hyped! Got about $35 in eshop credit atm so I'm hoping for some "available today" or "available tomorrow" news! Need more games on my Switch to last me until Mario Odyssey.

That game release is moving dangerously close to Mario Odyssey.
I already don't care and I was super hyped when they first announced it. I have way too many games to play now. If it's come out on Switch at the same time as other consoles I would have been there Day 1 as I was looking for games on Switch at that time. Now I'm having to hold off on getting games I want because there is so much out I want to play.
 
The problem with Yooka-Laylee and Rime when they come out, they will be like $10 on every other platform and then $39 on Switch, at that point I would just wait for a price drop to get them

Well they got themselves in this situation.

I was really excited for both games. Rime I might get, but I have to see if anything else comes out in November. YL idk though. Nintendo fans were the ones who would've bought the game the most out of any fanbase, yet they're the ones getting it way later. I'll probably still buy it since I expect them to make sure the game is up to snuff.
