Switch Weekly - Your Nintendo Update

▶ Indie World - November 2022 — A 25-minute showcase of indie games coming to the Switch. Lots of lovely stuff here, including a game about South Indian cooking, and a watercolour journey through the French countryside. Pepper Grinder and Sports Story are the highlights for me. There's a write-up of what was announced here if you'd rather read up on the presentation.

Nintendo Switch sales cross 114 Million, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe nears 50 Million units sold — New sales records, but things are slowing down, as the company has now lowered its forecast for Switch console sales for this fiscal year by two million. BTW, the official Q&A sessions following any Nintendo financial results are always worth a read.
