Machinarium announced for Switch

I loved it back on the PS3. Happy for those who haven't played it, it was a great experience.

This is the RE4 of indie ports.

Great game but can be difficult to figure out some puzzles.

Cave Story, surely

Stylish but incredibly frustrating game. It's funny to remember those stories about the WiiWare size limit. Innocent times.

I mean if you consider all the remakes and remasters of it as one game, yes.

But Cave Story has like 3 or 4 different versions unlike RE4 or Machinarium who are simple ports.

already got the game for steam and ios so i don't think i'll triple dip, but i recommend it to anyone who hasn't played it yet. fantastic game.
i hope amanita design's other games are coming as well.

Nope, Cave Story is on Nintendo consoles, and PC. IIRC, never scrapped and Xbox nor a PS3 or 4.

Oh nice. Might double dip, haven't played it in years. Great game :D

More game the better...and i usually dont care how old the games are as long as the quality is there its a good addition.
But my first response when reading the title was " damn....dis is old"

I have the game on every other system including steam and mobile so im out - but cool for people that havent tried it yet.

this made me think, out of the old indie games i love, braid and fez are still missing on switch.
braid is missing from all modern platforms, they should really bring that to xbo/ps4/switch

One of my favourite indies. Going to buy it again.

Seriously, it's a game that can stand up against time.

Very stylish and fun experience for those who like atmospheric adventure games with some light puzzling.

Gorgeous art style, beautiful music, hard puzzles. Overall very good game, Switch owners will enjoy it if they go in with the right expectations.

I hate point and click style adventure games, but I love Machinarium. Really charming stuff.

They remade the entire game from scratch on a new engine recently to free it from Flash so it makes sense to port to new platforms. It really is a timeless game so if anyone has not played it yet I highly recommend it.

Damn I loved this! Gonna pick it up again

One of the high watermarks for point-and-clicks in the twenty-first century (and still Amanita's best work from the selection I've played). It's about a 4-hour experience depending on how quickly you see the solutions, but the gorgeous art and animation are quite concise at performing, in pantomime, the dual purpose of establishing the setting/story and cluing you into solutions, half-solutions that require lifting an additional constraint, and so on. Just excellent visual feedback for the puzzle-solving all around so that it's never too obtuse, but not at the expense of handing you all the answers.

Hope whatever dual touch/pointer control scheme we get is well implemented and that the price point is right for new players.

I still proud of my high-school (well, "middle school" like we talk about it here) teacher, who did an animation on this game. Wish you ongoing success Mr. Blín.

I loved this game on Vita. Amazing how many games which are on PSVita are now coming to the Nintendo switch.

Yay! Hopefully this means the rest of Amanita's catalog will show up eventually. Switch is turning into a nice second home for point and click.

I broke out an involuntary huge smile when I read that title OP. Looks like I'll be buying Machinarium again for the 10 billionth time.

Benny, bring every indie to the switch.

What do you mean every indie?
