This is huge! This definitely lowers the access barrier for smaller time game developers, now they can get approved by Nintendo themselves without having to put in a significant upfront investment with a porting company.
The W4 games option is still good to have for people that want to ensure there is as much feature parity as possible to the full Godot Suite!
Cool. But nobody is going to start another 3 year project on the switch anymore. Maybe with the switch 2 in mine if it’s compatible with switch games. But cool anyway!
i’ve seen some people online saying Nintendo is very selective, and opaque about choosing who is allowed to buy their $450 devkit…
but still, godot is pretty coolThey can’t be that selective. There’s an insane amount of shovelware on there.
Haha yeah, I was gonna say, if you’ve even been on the eshop once, “selective” is not the word you’d use to describe them.
