3** A possible set of [[AndYourRewardIsClothes bonus costumes]], if certain stretch goals are met, consists of [[WalkingSwimsuitScene a two-piece bikini]], [[GratuitousNinja a ninja outfit]], and--wait, [[VideoGame/MightySwitchForce PATRICIA WAGON'S]] [[FairCop UNIFORM]]?!? YES! YES! [[BigYes YEEEEEEEEES!!!]]
4** Other goals include playing as Risky, Sky, Bolo, and Rottytops as well as recently revealed bonus Chapter that sees the return of Nega-Shantae.
5** The Kickstarters almost over, and it sadly looks like they won't reach the stretch goa-wait, they opened up a [=PayPal=]? You can contribute money into the project even after the Kickstarter is over? And the money's going to go into the stretch goals?!
6* Creator/CristinaValenzuela is voicing Shantae in ''Pirate's Curse'' and ''Half-Genie Hero''!
7* That Nindies direct was great, but it's weird that there wasn't any new Shantae game announcement in it, especially since [=WayForward=] is otherwise busy with only ''VideoGame/{{Blood|stainedRitualOfTheNight}}''--there's one after all!? And it's coming within the year? The half-genie hero is back in business yet again!
8** [[https://twitter.com/WayForward/status/1145769578154405889 It'll have an actual animated opening!]] ''DONE BY Creator/{{STUDIO TRIGGER}} THEMSELVES! FOLY HUCK!''

10** The kicker of it all? The first game [[https://twitter.com/MrBozon/status/1305411964793843714 actually coming to Japan for the first time]], ''finally'' putting an end to its infamous NoExportForYou status.
11* Even with how far the series has come, it would be cool to see what that Game Boy Advanced game would have been like. Wait, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1-fu8loFDY&pp=ygUYc2hhbnRhZSByaXNreSByZXZvbHV0aW9u IT'S FINALLY GETTING RELEASED!?]] And Limited Run Games is releasing ''actual Game Boy Advanced'' cartages for it!?

16** IT GETS BETTER! The original voice actors of the [[WesternAnimation/DuckTales1987 TV show]] will also reprise their roles as the characters in the game as it will have full voice-acting! CAN YOU BASK IN YOUR CHILDHOOD NOSTALGIA?!
17** The best part? [=WayForward=] has stated that how well this remake does market-wise could result in similar takes on Creator/{{Capcom}}'s [[VideoGame/ChipNDaleRescueRangers other]] [[WesternAnimation/DarkwingDuck Disney]] [[VideoGame/AladdinCapcom licensed]] [[LicensedGame games]]. ''Hell yes.''
18** And now they've confirmed that it's coming to the PC and will be available through Steam and other venues! AW, YEAH!

21* ''VideoGame/MightySwitchForce'' looks fun, but what about those without a 3DS or Wii U? May as well look for another game to p--wait a sec, YOU GUYS ARE PORTING ''MIGHTY SWITCH FORCE!

25** The news for a sequel were exciting enough, but among the first things to be revealed were two new playable characters: [[VideoGame/DoubleDragon Marian]] leaving her shop to ''finally'' show off her fighting skills in a beat 'em up, and [[VideoGame/RiverCityRansomUnderground Provie]]'s unexpected but pleasantly surprising return in the mainline series.
26* For the company's 30th anniversary, ''Xtreme Sports'', one of their earlier games has not been forgotten; it's [[https://twitter.com/WayForward/status/1280943465598193664 coming to the Switch]] and even getting repro carts from Limited Run Games, for good measure!
27* The company making an actual tie-in game for none other than ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}''.
28* In a pleasant surprise of an announcement, after backing Nintendo for so long, the company got rewarded by being assigned to ''[[VideoGame/NintendoWars Advance Wars 1+2: Reboot Camp]]'', the remakes of their fan-favorite [=GBA=] strategy games.
