While not a Nintendo Switch release, I want to do all I can to support Ryan and his passion project. Limited to 1,000 copies and goes up for sale at 1 PM EST, read below to learn more about this awesome initiative.


The Super Rare Mixtape Vol. 1 isa curated collection of indie games from some of the best and brightest up-and-coming developers, including a wide variety of small games & demos - all playable on your Windows PC.

  • 📼 30 games - a curated collection of 30 varied games from small indie developers in the freeware scene - from retro first-person shooters and platformers, to visual novels, tower defenses, and quick experimental ideas, this is a showcase of pure creativity that finally gives these smaller games the attention and preservation they deserve

  • 📼 6 demos - to fit with its PC compilation disc/PS1 demo disc type vibes, we've partnered with teams behind some of the most exciting upcoming commercial indie games to provide playable demos - including SkateBIRD, Grapple Dog, Billie Bust Up, and more!

  • 📼 USB tape cassette - your mixtape of games are fittingly featured on a tape cassette shaped USB, complete with a built-in custom launcher for easy plug 'n' play use on your Windows PC or laptop

  • 📼 Collector's box - the gorgeous slim box, designed to fit in with your games collection, also includes a full-colour manual with a full page dedicated to each of the 36 titles and why we chose them for this collection

  • 📼 1,000 copies* - as a test to see if there's an audience for this uniquely new idea of physical collections of tiny indie games for PC, only 1,000 copies of Volume 1 are available for sale - hopefully we can make many more volumes in the future! (*1,100 copies have been printed in total as additional units were needed for the many developer samples)
