Nintendo is shaking things up by holding two separate presentations on the same day. The September 2024 Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase and Indie World Showcase will air back-to-back, and you can watch them right here.

Watch the Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase and Indie World Showcase

The Nintendo Indie World Showcase will begin at 7 a.m. PT/10 a.m. ET on the Nintendo of America YouTube channel. It will be immediately followed by the Nintendo Direct Partner Showcase. Both events will be part of the same broadcast, so you won’t need to switch streams after the first one concludes. The two showcases will run for a combined 40 minutes.

During both showcases, we can expect to receive announcements and updates regarding games coming to the Switch from independent and third-party studios. We’ll be watching and sharing all of the Nintendo news right here on Shacknews.

        Knew this package was inevitable, but was always wondering how they'd handle the second screen stuff.

        Looks like they give you multiple display options for gameplay+map, added gamepad controls for touch screen stuff like DoS boss seals, rewind option and save states, too.

        I maintain that Dawn of Sorrow is Iga's best Vania. Ecclesia is awesome as well.

        What is going on with that title? Seems like it was close to release when originally announced it like 15 years ago or whatever.

          If I had to guess: small team, pandemic and ambition to deliver something special because they need to follow up the best metroidvania in the genre. The first game managed to dethrone metroid3 and sotn so there is some pressure.

          idk. started out as a dlc expansion for the first game, and probably grew to be too ambitious even after they made it a full sequel.

            It’s a silly game, that’s why we love it

              Hell yeah, it's a damn fun game. I do wish it kept some of the stylistic flourishes of CvS1 though. And had waaay more stages, but that's my complaint about every fighting game after Street Fighter 2--every character in every fighting game should have home turf!
