Don't know how widely known this is, but Heist is set after SteamWorld Dig 2 even though it was released first. So if you're done digging but haven't tried Heist yet, jump aboard! The included DLC has a highly relevant Dig 2 character.

I really enjoyed Heist on the Wii U. I kinda love the San Diego based robot band too, Steam Powered Giraffe, who play new songs and new versions of their songs throughout the game.

These guys:

The 3DS version was bloody fantastic, so I might double dip on this. What's so ultimate about this edition, though?

It includes the DLC character and their small number of extra levels and has touch controls. Don't know if I'd double dip but I'd recommend a ... first dip to anyone. :)

I played this on 3DS and then again on PS4 so not sure if I’m ready to play through again. Though I highly recommend it to anyone who hasn’t played yet, it’s excellent in every way and the music is fantastic! I still sing the songs to myself every now and then when I’m in the shower or doIng the dishes.

Ah, I see. In that case I'll probably wait until there's a price drop and pick it up then.

The DLC actually adds quite a lot of contemt. A new playable character, extra dialogue and story missions related to that character, new weapons, and even some new hats.

But yeah it was $5 back in the day, it wasn’t a huge expansion. Maybe not worth a full $20 if that’s all your interested in.

Ah yes, there are some new weapons and items. And the new character's Vectron skills are powered quite differently too which is cool.

I really want to buy this game just to have it on Switch, but I'm trying to be financially responsible. Which sucks!

Same here. Now that my 3DS is back in order, I could just play there if I get the urge but it'd be so nice having on Switch.

After beating SteamWorld Dig 2 yesterday, I feel the timing is too perfect not to grab this.

I highly recommend this game, and this band. They are amazing. Both things. All of the things.
