Nintendo has scheduled an Indie World Showcase livestream for tomorrow, March 3, at 9AM ET. The company says this event will include “roughly 15 minutes of news and updates on indie games coming to Nintendo Switch 2 and Nintendo Switch.” That’s not a whole lot of time, but indie trailers tend to be on the shorter side.
We really don’t know anything about what Nintendo and its partners could reveal tomorrow. It’s entirely possible we’ll see something big, like the previously announced Sea of Sorrow DLC for Silksong. More than likely, however, we’ll get trailers and updates regarding a spate of unexpected indie games.
The previous Indie World Showcase took place in August and it gave us trailers and announcements for stuff like the excellent Ball x Pit and the upcoming Mina the Hollower. To that last one, Yacht Club Games said it would be launching the title for consoles this spring so we could get a release date announcement tomorrow.

Scott Pilgrim EX will be available for download tomorrow, so a launch trailer is almost certain. This is a new side-scrolling fighter with four-player co-op and music by Anamanaguchi. My personal white whale is Witchbrook, the long-gestating life-sim set in a magical school. It’s being published by Chucklefish, the company that originally published Stardew Valley.
There’s some stuff we absolutely shouldn’t expect. This is an Indie World Showcase, and not a Nintendo Direct. There will likely be no appearances by Mario or Zelda, unless a character pops up in an indie game as DLC or something. The stream is also unlikely to spotlight Pokémon Pokopia, despite the life-sim launching on March 5.
