"Practically any game can catch my attention with the words “It’s like Metroid.” Of course, a conceptual tie to Nintendo’s classic series isn’t a free pass, but the time-tested formula is a great place to start. In the case of Xeodrifter, it serves as a solid framework to deliver a compact and entertaining retro adventure, though one that doesn’t venture too far off the map.
You control a space-faring nomad whose ship has a broken warp core, so you need to gather components from nearby planets. The plot never develops or gets more complex than that, but it doesn’t need to. After the brief introduction, you are set loose to explore, and that’s when the fun begins."
In Episode 171 of its podcast, Random Nintendo highlights overlooked Switch eShop games worth watching for or playing now, including Sky Force Reloaded and Xeodrifter, plus looks back at three of the big trends of Switch's first year.
Carl from SwitchEra.net writes: "In Atooi’s Xeodrifter, players take control of an interstellar adventurer as they scour four different planets in search of the materials required to repair their ship’s damaged warp core. What began as a by-the-numbers Metroid clone turned into something a little more special thanks to one very neat upgrade."

"no games this year thats not a port" Aren't you forgetting Pokemon, Metroid and Fire Emblem?
I'm sure there's more directs coming. I would be very surprised if we didn't get any word on Smash and Pikmin 4 soon.
Kirby, Yoshi, and Mario Tennis arent ports. Those are confirmed for 2018.
So heres a question guys should the next Smash Brothers be changed into Nintendo: Battle Royale or should the next Smash Brothers have a true Battle Royale mode ? Or should this maybe be a different game entirely ?
They should replace everyone with a bunch of garbage characters, make it really mediocre and call it playstation all-stars.
