It is bizarre that games like Cave Story and La Mulana have taken so long. But I think Nicalis' other games will come out eventually. Cave Story is like the opposite of Super Meat Boy. It is ALL OVER Nintendo platforms.
By the way, did you guys read about the Meat Boy guys working on a 'portable' game for next year? Like, a palette cleanser, I think they said? Maybe it was in GamePro. I'm thinking 3DSWare is a shoo-in. I also think Bit.Trip Runner will have a trippy 3D sequel on the platform.
Holmes alluded to developer disappointment with sales, but how many quality games do we have some form of data on? World of Goo did well. The first couple of Strongbad games did well. Tetris did well. And My Aquarium did well. Everything else is up in the air. But how many more third-party games deserved to sell?
NyxQuest went to Steam... Cave Story seemed to get a big push by the Big N. I can't think of anything else right now.
