The indie smash hit Stardew Valley has been given a thumbs up for its eventual launch on Nintendo Switch, which is great for a game inspired by Nintendo RPGs.

Specifially Stardew Valley takes its inspiration from Harvest Moon type 'life simulators' that are enormously popular on Nintendo handhelds and consoles. In Stardew you inherit a rather dilapidated farm on the outskirts of town.

You settle in and begin to try and make a successful business as well as get to know the local community, and perhaps even help inject new life among the people. A Switch version of Stardew Valley has been in the works for a while now.

"Armed with hand-me-down tools and a few coins, you set out to begin your new life. Can you learn to live off the land and turn these overgrown fields into a thriving home? It won't be easy. Ever since Joja Corporation came to town, the old ways of life have all but disappeared. The community center, once the town's most vibrant hub of activity, now lies in shambles. But the valley seems full of opportunity. With a little dedication, you might just be the one to restore Stardew Valley to greatness!"

Stardew Valley released on PC February 2016, Mac and Linux July 2016, Xbox One and PlayStation 4 December 2016 and on Switch later in 2017.
