If you’ve been keeping up with the Nintendo Direct-like Nindie Showcases, then you will definitely be familiar with Mr. Damon Baker, a.k.a: the ‘Nindie Guy’. Not only has he been a strong advocate for getting indie developers onto Nintendo platforms, but he’s also been responsible for establishing relationships with large, AAA third-party companies too. Unfortunately, he’s now leaving Nintendo after being with the company for over a decade.




Third party support has been great for the switch, hope it doesn't hurt that

I'm not worried about this at all. Nintendo clearly put effort into making the Switch more user friendly for third party developers.

The sinking ship of the fastest selling console to this point after release in like 3 major markets?



What if he just got a better offer? Successful people tend to find new challenges often.

Speaking of jokes, I hear Nintendo is having a game sale.

Meh. As long as they make Zelda and Mario, I don't really care

Throw in the occasional Star Fox and this is me. Wouldn't mind more DK either.

Maybe they can use whatever he was getting paid and put that towards a less shitty online service.

Even a retextured port would be GREAT.
