It’s the season of giving, and Nintendo have gotten in on the act, giving us a range of new information on a selection of new and upcoming independently developed games via a blog on their website that they’re dubbing the “Inside The House Of Indies“. Today they’ve launched Day 2 of the event, showing off a further four games, two available now, and two other 2023 launches that you might consider buying and/or wishlisting for later.
“Welcome to Day 2 of the Inside the House of Indies holiday event! All this week, we’re serving up fresh-daily videos highlighting game updates, announcements, and more from our indie partners. The second video is available now for you to enjoy. Be sure not to miss an update, and happy holidays!” the blog reads.
