At reveal, Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour seemed like a charming way to learn about the tech of the Switch 2. A lovely journey through the hardware that would feature some fun tech demos and minigames to show you what your new system could do. And then, like many others, I was shocked to learn that it would not be installed on every Switch 2, but would instead be sold as a separate game.

Double Fine is primarily known for creating Psychonauts and its sequel, but it is also known for being funny and having humorous, heartfelt dialogue. Its latest, Keeper, seems much more quiet. Or, at least, it seems quiet in the trailer. The game follows a sentient lighthouse as it travels through a strange, abstract world, alongside what appears to be a friendly bird. It looks odd and sometimes a little creepy, but in an enticing way. The game releases October 17 on Xbox platofrms and PC, via Steam.

Super Meat Boy was an early point of success for Xbox Live Arcade. The difficult 2D platformer was a popular game on the platform, and though it has never received a proper numbered sequel, it has been given a few spin-offs like Super Meat Boy Forever and Dr. Fetus' Mean Meat Machine. Super Meat Boy 3D, however, looks to be its biggest follow-up yet. The game is fully 3D and looks every bit as challenging as the games that preceded it.
