Hope: Blue Prince to Switch?
One indie-shaped announcement we’re hoping for is to see Blue Prince make the jump over to Switch and/or Switch 2.
The puzzle adventure game took the world by storm earlier this year and is one of the highlights of 2025 so far. It’s a perfect game for the handheld nature of the Switch consoles, and we can’t imagine it being a drain on even the older console’s hardware either.
What an absolutely welcome addition to the Switch library this would be.
What else might we see?
Away from the potential Silksong-shaped-elephant in the room, what else could we see? Well, we’ve done some brainstorming here and have a few ideas about what might appear, but also what we hope to appear…
The Silksong question…
This probably won’t be the last time we speak about Silksong, but the big question today is: will we see Silksong in the Indie World Showcase?
Here at TechRadar Gaming, we’re split on it. Some of us think that it’s just too close to Gamescom now, where it’s been confirmed that the game will be playable – and likely shown off during a showcase of some sort.
While others on our team think a snippet or brief look will be enough to keep that hype train going at full speed.
I don’t think we’ll see a huge amount of the game if it is present today, but something would be excellent.
How to watch the Nintendo Indie World Showcase
Next, here’s how to watch it, and the best stream to use.
Below is the Nintendo of America placeholder YouTube link, which will go live with the show at start time. You’ll also be able to watch it on Twitch if you prefer.

Indie World start time
Let’s start off with the really simple, but really crucial stuff: when the showcase will start.
Nintendo confirmed that the Indie World Showcase will begin at the usual time of 6am PT / 9am ET / 2pm BST.
It’s going to run for only about 15 minutes, so you won’t have to block off loads of time to catch this stream.
