Coming from a Eurogamer interview with Shun Nakamura, game designer and producer at Sonic Team
EU: Speaking of the Switch, I've got one in my bag. There are two controllers that come off, they've got motion control and HD rumble. You worked on Samba de Amigo. Have you ever thought that there might be the perfect match here? We could be playing Samba de Amigo right here and right now.
Shun Nakamura: I really want to make Samba de Amigo on the Switch.
EU: It'd be amazing. I wouldn't have to pay quite as much money as I did for the Dreamcast version back in the day, too.
Shun Nakamura: I really, really want to make it! This is coming from someone who had to make physical items you had to buy and plug into your console in order to play Samba de Amigo at home. When the Wii came out, there was only one Wii Remote, and you had to buy another one. You could still do it, but it's a bit of a hurdle to get over. The first time I saw the Switch, I thought oh my god - this is it! You don't have to buy another peripheral, you don't need to buy another controller. I'm really, really interested in that.
I know I'm a terrible person, but I've never played Samba de Amigo. I've watched someone play the Wii version, but that's about it. Am I missing out? Do I need to grab the game for my Dreamcast?
