Additionally, we are avid gamers and like to choose our favourite games. Often the two cross-over and we have the ideal situation!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;For the Nintendo Switch, the technical requirements are fairly low. The main difficulty arises from creating a marketing plan and helping the games reach a completely new audience. Luckily, every day our community grows and we have helped create a group of individuals who all love physical media.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>We hear this a lot from indie developers working directly with Nintendo, but it seems that Super Rare Games finds working with the &#8216;Big N&#8217; a pleasure, too:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;We work exclusively on the Switch and the process has been very fun with them! They are an amazing bunch of people and is very easy to work with them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><\/blockquote>\n<p>If you want to check out the full interview, make sure to give it a read <a class=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/geekretro.pl\/interviews\/super-rare-games-interview\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, though, make sure to let us know if you&#8217;ve been building a collection of physical indie hits on Switch in the comments below.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Indie games in physical form are not only wonderful little delights in their own right, but also part of what is quickly becoming a growing trend.
