Gang Beasts Switch Port Possibility?
This game seems perfect for the Nintendo Switch to me.
The game doesn't require that much resource-wise and the single Joycon controllers have the all of the controls required for this game (Shoulder buttons, A, B, X, Y, and an analog stick). The game's local multiplayer party gameplay seems perfect for the Switch.
What are your guys' opinions on this subject?

Gang beasts also uses triggers and a start and function (for example share on ds4) button.

Also, 'doesn't require that much resource-wise' Completely incorrect and absolute ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

Also you're forgetting the big problem. Nintendo are moneyhogging ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. Why do you think there are never indie games like this on nintendo platforms?

Sure, if it did come to the Switch then technically Boneloaf could limit the controls further. They've already done it to every generic controller that already supports Gang Beasts. I'm not saying that to make it sound like that controllers on GB are at less of an advantage compared to keyboard/mouse. Keyboard and mouse have additional unimportant functions. Playing with a controller on GB is an optimal way of playing the game

Like Pybro said, Gang Beasts is a more resource demanding game than you think - Thanks to the physics in the game, although there will continue to be optimisation improvements. But overall though a Switch should be able to run it fine

And yea Pybro has a good point about the indie devs thing on Nintendo platforms

That's on the Switch? Hm.

And I wasn't 100% backing that no indie games are on Nintendo platforms - Their must be. I had a Wii years ago and I know I had to it had at least a handful of indie games on it
