Do you think they'll ever port the Nights games to the switch? I mean they're a Saturn and a wii game, and Nights has a good cult following. It seems like an easy enough sell to me.
Misc Nights games on the switch?

Don't see it happening to be honest (the original is one of my all time fave games by the way) - it didn't sell very well on PS360 (wasn't a particularly good port on either platform to be honest), the sequel also sold below expectations on Wii (and yes, was rather arse anyway)
It was also quite the videogame version of Marmite anyway, even when it was actually good on the Saturn and PS2: many people didn't 'get it' back then, and even less will these days - score attack games are long gone for the most part: it's a relic of a bygone era!
So no, don't get your hopes up, would take quite a bit of work to port, and doesn't sell well enough for them to bother in my opinion (and could you really trust a fukkin joycon analogue stick not to let you down on it anyway?!)

You have good points, but I've seen other games that were niche/cult classics get ported(Nocturne, woo!). I won't get my hopes to high though. Y'know what'd be cool too? Sa2b on the switch

Spoke to Tom Fulp the other day, if he can find his old Newgrounds site content like the mini Flash animations from the 2000's that played on the portal. -

So far no response, but he did say that he'll find them. Wayback Machine doesn't have em.

@SylverReZ, atleast the 1999 versión of pico's school is avaliable (the difference between it, the 2006 versión and the 2016 versión is that the speed of the game depends of the speed of your computer and that it had the og soundtrack)

@Xdqwerty, Another being Pico VS Bear, the original 1999 version before Jim Henson filed a DMCA takedown.+1

@SylverReZ, although the "secrets" system where the game was has been removed. Also pico vs uberkids had a netplay versión that was shutdown, although the swf file has been found

@Xdqwerty, Nope. There are two download buttons on the same page, where you can download the original under a file called "bear.exe". "bear2.exe", however, is the updated game in a Flash projector. P.s. this was on the archived Pico page from 2000.

Fun fact @SylverReZ: iirc one of the goals on the fnf Kickstarter stated that pico 2 would be finished but the Kickstarter didnt get enough money for that goal to be fullfiled
