Nindies In New York – Switch & Play NYC September Monthly Event @ Waypoint Cafe NYC
Sep 21 @ 3:00 pm – 11:00 pm

September is here, and Indie games have taken the Nintendo Switch by storm! So why not dedicate this month’s event to Indies on Nintendo Switch, or as Nintendo likes to call them, “Nindies”?

Starting at 3PM on September 21st, we will be meeting up at Waypoint Cafe, as we celebrate nindies that are on the Nintendo Switch. We will have tons of select games for people to play:

– Pocket Rumble
– Wizard of Legend
– Runbow
– Enter the Gungeon
– Crawl
– Graceful Explosion Machine
– Jackbox Party Pack 1-4
– Use Your Words
– Overcooked 2
– Blade Strangers
– Light Fingers
– Keep Talking And Nobody Explodes
– Flat Heroes
– Human: Fall Flat

And Many More!

We will be rotating each game, so everyone would have a chance to try out different Nindie titles!

To get to Waypoint Cafe, take the D Train to Grand St. From there, it’s a five minute walk to Ludlow St. After you reach Ludlow, make a left turn, and it’s a very short walk. You could also take the F Train to Delancey St. From there, it’s a three minute walk to Ludlow.

Please be mindful, and respect other patrons at Waypoint Cafe, as well as the management. We also urge anyone attending the event not to bring outside food to the venue.

We hope that you are able to join us, as we look forward to having you with us!
