Nintendo Switch release?
This game would be a perfect indie title for the switch. Make it happen please!

"As far as working more on Spelunky... right now I don't have any plans. Ports and patches definitely aren't out of the question - it's just a matter of finding the time/opportunity. And like you said, there are people out there who can do these things, but even overseeing one of those projects adds a slew of little obligations that can add up quickly. But I'm open to the possibility, for sure!

Right now I'm working on more than one game that I think many Spelunky fans will be into! But yeah, to get those out I've got to put the time into them."

Recent post from Derek. Looks like it's in the cards if he finds the time or resources in the future, but not planned so far.

It would be a perfect fit for the switch and its super easy to port games over some devs have done it in less than a week and one just reported doing it in one day.

Yeah I'd love to play Spelunky on a trash tablet.

Just a suggestion and the devs always want another market to make money and the switch is hot right now.

Right now doesn't mean long term. It's just hot because it's new. Look at the Wii U, hot at launch, then bombed.

The wii u bombed for a lot of reasons. Marketing, not easy for devs to work on, expensive for devs to work on, ect. The switch is very popular with the indie devs because its super fast and easy to port their games. Third parties are also getting on board. The reason the switch won't fail is because its appeal with the portabilty and versatillity of how the console can be used.

They can't keep them on the shelves. Still waiting on the bomb you talked about. The postive reception from the Super Meat Boy port surprised the dev. I can only imagine the response from a Spelunky port. Make it happen please.

This would make so much sense to put on the switch. The dev would make so much more money.

Would love to see this on the switch. I am gaming a lot more on switch since I bought it.
