Earlier today, Nintendo livestreamed their Nindie Showcase, which revealed and promoted Switch games coming from independent publishers and developers.

Damon Baker, Nintendo’s head of the Developer and Publisher Relations Team, hosted the livestream and talked about a slew of indie games coming to the Switch.

Mischa McGill

Mischa grew up with video games and still has a deep love for many - especially fun, colorful RPGs. Some of her favorites include Pokémon, Animal Crossing, Pikmin, Fantasy Life, Kingdom Hearts, Skyrim, Civilization V, and Stardew Valley. She loves nights in with her boyfriend cooking Mexican food, watching Studio Ghibli movies, and going head-to-head in their favorite games. Mischa might not beat you in Super Smash Bros, but she owns a replica of Arwen’s sword and Hermione’s wand, so... don’t rub it in too much.
