Huh, that's an interesting acquisition. Sounds like Nintendo wants to have a hand in porting third party games to it's systems.
Huh, Nintendo doesn't usually make acquisitions like this. At least it's smarter than Sony and Microsoft.
Will be interesting to see where it goes. Mostly I'm just happy to see anything escape the clutches of Embracer Group.
Hopefully this makes them improve Mortal Kombat 1 on Switch 😅
Polygon's take on the deal: https://www.polygon.com/24161472/nintendo-shiver-acquisition-explained
Glad I own a Switch then.
This is great, more cross-platform games is always better
This is good to me. I thought Hogwarts legacy was great on the switch given the hardware
