"With the 3DS eShop continuing to grow, and the Wii U equivalent already shaping up with an increasingly encouraging range of confirmed titles, there’s plenty of positivity around Nintendo’s download offerings. Like any platform it still has its detractors and issues, such as the occasional broken mess on the release schedule and a never-ending debate about pricing, but the 3DS and Wii U era looks to be a significant and much needed improvement over the DSi and Wii services.", writes NintendoLife.
Shin'en Multimedia, the developer behind Nintendo Switch launch title Fast RMX, has teased an upcoming announcement for the console.
We caught up with Shin'en Multimedia's Manfred Linzner to learn more about the game and what Nintendo's new platform offers.
Nice, I will get it.

I think when this sytem gets into full swing people will be surprised at the power of such a small device.
Have the Wii U game and can confirm the game looks great even on Wii U and is a blast to play. It takes a lot of skill, but it's easily for new players to pick up and play because everything's easy to understand. I hope they see more success on Switch! Nintendo should partner with them for F-Zero if they're not going to make something on their own.

Shin'en have always produced technically impressive games and it looks like they're keep up with that tradition here. Hopefully it plays as good as it looks... I think many of us need to scratch that F-Zero or Wipeout itch.
Third parties could learn a lot about developing great Wii U games from Shin-En.
It comes from a desire to hammer the hardware until it bleeds. Shin'en are ex demo-sceners from the Amiga and PC who went under the name Abyss: http://www.the-leaders-of-t... - similar to how some of the founders at DICE were members of The Silents, another Amiga demo group from the 80/90s: http://en.wikipedia.org/wik...
It's in their DNA to push the hardware as hard as they can :)
