Wow. Just so much great stuff coming down the pipeline!
So far my year hasn't been great, but what an amazing time to be alive as a gamer!

That's pretty darn neat. It's going to have to kind of deviate from the original if it's actually going to be interesting to play though, isn't it?

A Super Mario RPG inspired game is next. Another Crusade. Fall 2023.

I thought that one was going to be stuck in Kickstarter heck forever. Of course everyone wants more SMRPG, but I can't be the only one thinking that it looks like an atrociously bland fantasy.

I remember the Flash version from years and years and years ago. (It wasn't entirely forgotten during the Will Smith thing, but I thought more people would have remembered it.)

I didn't think anyone really much cared for those? (Also I personally find MVG to be downright grating.)

It would be bold if they included the Game Boy games.

Oh THIS clock tower. I thought the SNES one for a moment

 

[HarveyHouston]

A lot of remakes, old games getting new ports, and games inspired by classics. Is this the purpose of this showcase?

Knowing Limited Run Games, that's pretty much the whole mission of the publisher

 

[eduall]

At least Get !! Omg !

 

[chrisrlink]

I played the fan translation of clock tower for SNES i liked it glad a official localization is in the works hope nintendi diesn't stop them

 

[cvskid]

Why are so many of these not coming to xbox? Also why are ones that will come out on everything have a ps4 version but not a xbox one version? It's odd to me considering this is 3rd party and not 1st party.

 

[nWo]

Whoa. Better than the Xbox and PS "directs" even if they are only remasters / remakes.

Looking forward to the Shantae one.

Plumbers Don’t Wear Ties Definitive is one of those games you get just to say you have them, which is exactly why I’m probably gonna snag a copy

I think it's goal is to be generic. Art-style wise it is unique I'd say though. There are quite a few rpgs out that purposefully go back to basics.

Limited run games, like NIS, is a primarily niche publisher.
