" Three more games are heading to Switch for the console’s launch. World of Goo, Little Inferno, and Human Resource Machine will all be out on March 3.

World of Goo previously ended up on Wii, while Little Inferno and Human Resource Machine were originally made for Wii U. New to the Switch versions is a Soundtrack Mode. Here, “players can explore Kyle Gabler’s wonderfully bizarre music in this special mode”.

For those who haven’t heard about these titles previously, here’s a look at each one: "

Damn, I remember Little Inferno!! Haven't played that one in a while. Not that these games are system sellers or anything but Nintendo should have compiled a complete list of titles coming to switch, indie, 3rd party, it shouldn't matter. Let people know while all eyes are on you!

If you never played world of goo, play it. Seriously, it's one of the best games on the Wii that isn't from Nintendo.

World of Goo, Little Inferno, really?

Yawn, I played them 8, respectively 4 years ago. Well, at least, WoG is a really good game for those who have never played it, LI is neglectable imo.

I'm glad though that newer and unreleased indies are being ported or co-developed. Gonner, Stardew Valley, Yooka-Laylee, Syberia 3, State of Mind, Kingdom, Monster Boy, Wonder Boy, Redout.

BTW, Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove will be released on Switch first: http://yachtclubgames.com/2017/01/switch-at-pax/

Now, if Toby Fox announced a port of Undertale, that would be another excellent addition. Switch would be the perfect system for this game, not only thanks to the portability but also because Undertale was inspired by Nintendo franchises Mother and Mario & Luigi. I hope we get an announcement later down the line.

I'm really glad to see Nintendo gain relationships with indie developers during gen 8 to make Switch more appealing.

@bolded- never knew Mario and Luigi inspired Undertale.
