My friend used this game as a prime example in his college thesis on how videogames are becoming a form of literature, and how the impact of interaction and choices that matter affect the experience of storytelling. He got a standing ovation after his presentation and his game will forever be a brilliant classic because of it's story telling methods. I will be so happy to play this again!
I've been loosely studying the impact of games as a storytelling medium in contrast to video and text. Lately though you might call it more of a pursuit than a study. I'd love to read your friend's thesis. Do you think you could give us the title by any chance?
I was actually on the development team for this and I'd have to say its definitely the most unique game I've ever worked on. Thanks for all the support!
if this could be brought up , this game was alot of fun ngl looking forward to buying the switch port , but my question is ... how long and challenging was it to port a switch game with nintendo's permission and how long did it had to take for an official yes on the eshop?
This is one of the only times I'll say a practical walking simulator was one of my favorite games ever, this game was so funny, yet so surreal. So strange yet so lovely. It hit a perfect mix, and I can't wait to see the new content!
@@ItsameMatt Player firewatch, it's cool but not to Stanley parable IMO. Ester and what remains, never heard of em. And I've seen some gameplay of gone home, it seems pretty good to
Everyone else who found this reply also looks like the game that also came out for the switch and the other systems too like Xbox series s and x and Playstation 4 and 5 for the game is called subliminal
i always thought it's a game made by Valve for some reason has that same comedic yet serious vibe/style they have in all their games, definitely reminds me of portal or for example their most recent game/demo aperture desk has the same kind of tone and dialogue edit* just found out it was made using valves source engine and that the dev was inspired by their games, so it's no wonder i felt that way
A game that can be "finished" in a lunch break. Yet will easily give double digit hours of playtime. And no playthrough will be the same - neither will the endings and it will catch you off guard, give you chills, make you laugh and make you doubt your own perception - and also outwit you. Still one of my favourite gaming experiences ever.
Do you know if the game runs on source? Or what is the engine the game runs on. If it is running on source then we can assume that there's a lot more games that we'll get. Of course running the source engine.
I played this game to death a few years ago on Steam. Excited to experience it all over again on Switch, and we'd better get an extended backstory on the broom closet.
Literal chills when they slowly typed 427 as the release date. This is one of the best games I've ever experienced, and I'm so happy that it's getting a remaster on switch!!
This is one of the best games ever released and I’m so happy we’re getting more of it 💜 the broom closet ending was my favorite (I quote the “sweet FA” line all the time 😅)
I have been waiting for this game for 3 years. I am honestly more excited for this than any Triple A game coming out this year. If you’re reading this, I beg of you to give this one a try. The original was awesome, and this one promises to have double the content.
I love the og game, I have a good amount of nostalgia for it. This game and the Portal Collection are gonna be the next two games I buy on Switch. Can't believe they put Source on Switch. wait what if they put Titanfall 2 on Switch? They have Doom Eternal, plus, Titanfall runs on source. So it might happen with source now on switch. But the one I really want is Half Life 2.
One of my favorite video games of all time, Waited for this version since it’s first announcement at the 2019 Game awards. Recently during my big steam wishlist add I saw the steam page finally went live on steam was quite surprise and hella excited for this. I understood some of the development troubles from both devs and their stories so it was worth it to wait for the game to release after all these years.
If you guys look carefully, the release date on this game is 4/27. Conveniently, we are playing as Employee 427. This is truly an Easter egg worth noticing on The Stanley Parable trailer.
It's amazing... Your first time through it you will think it's stupid... But that changes VERY quickly... It's a masterpiece, just like his other mind bender of a game....
It's a very unique video game like no others. You can follow the story and also not and that will brings you into many different endings. And welcome to The Stanley Parable.
The original release of this game was one of the most surreal and memorable experiences I’ve ever had the fortune to enjoy. My hype cannot be contained!
I remember watching a livestream with this game I think four years ago and it's still one of the most memorable streams that I've watched cause I almost had a headache watching it from start to finish but at the same time I fell in love with it cause of how unique it is. Will definitely get it to experience playing it myself.
has anyone figured out how to get the version of the whiteboard ending shown at 1:59? thought it might be a variant of the confusion ending because the wooden shed looks the same but i just ended up getting the normal confusion ending
At long last, we're finally on the last stretch! Just a couple more weeks, and we'll be able to play The Stanley Parable Ultra Deluxe! As someone who has played the original game and really enjoyed it, I truly can't wait to experience this new version! Also, gotta say... that release date? Perfection.
As of April 27, 2022. 10:25AM ET (USA), the game is still not unlocked on the eShop, this is strange because it’s listed on PSN, Steam, and the game practically doesn’t exist on Xbox for even a store listing/preorder. It’s not available for download on any of those platforms either. This feels off, I feel like they’re going to announce some indefinite delay in a few hours because they didn’t squash a few bugs. Edit: (10:35AM ET) it’s gonna release at 12:00PM ET or the equivalent for your local time. Just a few more hours!
That ending with the release date. That made me go, “OHHH, that’s fun, that’s clever, I like that” But I’m surprised no one else seems to think so on the comments
For a time on the first release of the game the PC community has had it's experience spending countless hours to find all kinds of possibilities within the game, even so much as typing certain commands into the console window. Here's hoping the game has some keyboard support or playability should the joysticks try their fun with the console window on the console version itself if it's going to be a possibility. Onwards to a different kind of narrative adventure.
Absolutely hilarious and thought provoking. If you have the chance, play also "the beginner's guide", by the same creator, which instead will break your heart
Crows Crows Crows if you're reading this, PLEASE bring Beginners Guide to consoles. (For those unaware, it's Davey's other game besides Stanley Parable) Its such a mad underrated game, and I think I can safely say it's one of the best gaming experiences I've ever seen. There's nothing quite like it. You haven't got to change or add anything. Maybe a bit of a remaster would be nice as well as a few minor additions or changes, but just keep it as is. I would absolutely love to see that.
This game does a great job of simulating one of those rides at Disney World where youre just slowly ferried through a few rooms full of eye catching visuals.
Game comes out in 9 days, just had an idea What if, during the events of the game, after you have completed every ending, you go to redo an ending, but in the process, you lose control of Stanley, and he ends up making his own choices, thus causing a new ending, in which he regains full control of himself, and you can’t do anything to stop it, that seems like a really good thing to include in the game I like calling it either “The Control Ending” or “The Stanley Ending”, the definitive true ending to The Stanley Parable Edit: Oh, and there are points throughout the game where you lose control of Stanley beforehand, but he doesn’t do anything, so it’s more like the game is lagging, but he’s actually just standing there, unaware that he’s in control of himself
I think I never clicked so fast on a video. This game is literally THE think I love my friends to put in front on and be like "here, play this, it's fun".
That release date is a hoot. Of course, it'll be out on 427. I'm gonna have to go back and forth on that game and Switch Sports that's out the next day.
Omg I thought this ended up being abandoned, it’s been so long without any word! Gonna finally be able to play it again since I still can’t play the PC version cause I’m trying to get the go outside achievement lol
STANLEY PARABLE LETS GO!!!!! This game was the best and still is a awesome and unique game I’m so excited for people to see this amazing game for the first time!!!
DUDE I have been waiting for SO LONG! I remember years ago when I found out about Raphael's mod, and then saw that they were planning on adding some of that stuff in the actual game... and HERE WE ARE!
When I got my switch years ago it was my first big console that was mine (we had a Wii but I shared it with my brother and only used it when he was visiting, all we had was Lego Batman) I got it right after finding markiplier's play through of Stanley parable along with a few others like gtlive and the trump's playthrough of the demo. I thought this game was so cool and looked it up on the switch, and I was devastated when it was not there. Now all these years later I finally get to play this masterpiece of a game. Thank you Nintendo and developers.

That's pretty cool! Do you know by any chance the titles of your friend's thesis? I'd love to check it out of if it's available 😃
@KiosheKat Me too, wanna know about it.
Very wise. I see too many people dismiss video games that put heavy emphasis on story as mere glorified movies.
I've been loosely studying the impact of games as a storytelling medium in contrast to video and text. Lately though you might call it more of a pursuit than a study. I'd love to read your friend's thesis. Do you think you could give us the title by any chance?

Because of course it would.
I must admit, the choice of release date did make me chuckle.
I don’t get it.

This has to b one of my top 5 fave indie games. I can't wait to experience this on the switch when it launches. Thanks for helping the team out.
You did a nice Job My dude :)

You need to play Firewatch, Dear Esther, What Remains of Edith Finch, and Gone Home if you've never experienced those.

This is very concerning
The broom closet ending was /amazing/! Made the game a 10/10 for me!
Finally, another Broom Closet ending enjoyer! Nice to know someone else here has taste!
Such a wonderful experience. The broom closet ending was my favorite.
NO STOP DON’T DO THAT, IT THREW ME ON A LOOP WHEN I DID THAT.

One of the best, most unique experiences to ever come from a game. Can't wait to see it become even better.

You have a brilliant mind
That’s why it got delayed agjn
Yep.
It's not much of a secret... It's clearly shown off in the end of the trailer. Move the / between 4 and 27.
I love the release date being tied to the actual game, great idea
It's official, it's happening.
Stanley finally pushed the button.

It's a very unique video game like no others.
You can follow the story and also not and that will brings you into many different endings.

Nintendo needs to setup a quality control committee to make developers make game not some mobile phone apps for console
I wonder if the fern will be in this version. It was pretty important
At long last, we're finally on the last stretch! Just a couple more weeks, and we'll be able to play The Stanley Parable Ultra Deluxe! As someone who has played the original game and really enjoyed it, I truly can't wait to experience this new version!
Also, gotta say... that release date? Perfection.
Can't wait to have an existential crisis, but portably this time!
I was about to say if it doesn’t come out on April 27th, and you mad lads did it
It feels so weird seeing this as a Nintendo trailer... Let alone being able to play this on the Switch. This version looks amazing.
The best trailer you could've made for one of the best games ever in my opinion 😌
Wow. What a privilege to get to play this game. I am looking forward to it.
i know its just a little detail, but i love that they basically decided to "Hey, lets release it at 4/27, cause it fits just perfectly with Stanley"
I'm SO STOKED for this game, feels surreal that it's finally almost time 😭💖🥺
As of April 27, 2022. 10:25AM ET (USA), the game is still not unlocked on the eShop, this is strange because it’s listed on PSN, Steam, and the game practically doesn’t exist on Xbox for even a store listing/preorder.

I’ve never been more hyped for a rerelease in my entire life.
it also has new endings and content as well as heavily improved visuals
This game has had such a wild development starting as a mod for Half-Life 2 and then steam and now a switch release, so awesome.
That ending with the release date. That made me go, “OHHH, that’s fun, that’s clever, I like that”
But I’m surprised no one else seems to think so on the comments
Ikkkk I was realized immediately and was like "bruhhh how no one else realizinggg?" xD
1:59 Where is that in the game?
Played this a few years ago, absolute gem of game. Huge recommendation from me!
0:40. Wie kann ich dort hin kommen?

One of my favourite games that I have never played
Why is the narrator's voice actually the best?

This game is hilarious and I look forward to playing it the way I ideally play all my games: curled up in bed or on a couch, instead of at a desk.
Can’t wait for this! I’ve seen several playthroughs of this game and it’s absolutely an experience
For a time on the first release of the game the PC community has had it's experience spending countless hours to find all kinds of possibilities within the game, even so much as typing certain commands into the console window.
Here's hoping the game has some keyboard support or playability should the joysticks try their fun with the console window on the console version itself if it's going to be a possibility.
Onwards to a different kind of narrative adventure.
Absolutely hilarious and thought provoking. If you have the chance, play also "the beginner's guide", by the same creator, which instead will break your heart

I don`t even watched it, I already know that its an amazing banger. Good job, thumb is btw so mad good!! 😂😜
I’m glad they added the slash in there for the date, I was worried it was coming out on the 7th day of the 42nd month
I’m loving these Source games coming to the Switch. Here’s to hoping they bring the HL games in a bundle or something
One of the most memorable video game experiences of my life. I missed the Stanley Parable Adventure Line (TM).
This was one of my favorites back in the day. I can't wait to see it anew on the Switch! ❤️
Oh, did you get the broom closet ending? Theb room closet ending was my favrite!1
With this and Portal coming, man I can’t contain my joy.
I can't believe it. It's actually here. I stalked their official page for so long. Is this a dream?
Game comes out in 9 days, just had an idea
What if, during the events of the game, after you have completed every ending, you go to redo an ending, but in the process, you lose control of Stanley, and he ends up making his own choices, thus causing a new ending, in which he regains full control of himself, and you can’t do anything to stop it, that seems like a really good thing to include in the game
I like calling it either “The Control Ending” or “The Stanley Ending”, the definitive true ending to The Stanley Parable
Edit: Oh, and there are points throughout the game where you lose control of Stanley beforehand, but he doesn’t do anything, so it’s more like the game is lagging, but he’s actually just standing there, unaware that he’s in control of himself
I love that it's coming out on April 27th. 😄 I've been looking forward to this for a long time!
I think I never clicked so fast on a video. This game is literally THE think I love my friends to put in front on and be like "here, play this, it's fun".

I just realized with the recent buzz around the "back rooms" aesthetic, that could boost hype for this game with it's abandoned offices and facility
2:16 I still think it's so clever they released the game on April 27th because you know 427 😂
I cannot tell you the amount of excitement I felt when it said its coming out on 4/27
Honestly, the 427 -> 4/27 on the old computer dialogue window was great.
4/27 pfft. Gotta love when a release date is a reference.
can't wait to get the go outside achievement again
When I got my switch years ago it was my first big console that was mine (we had a Wii but I shared it with my brother and only used it when he was visiting, all we had was Lego Batman) I got it right after finding markiplier's play through of Stanley parable along with a few others like gtlive and the trump's playthrough of the demo.

I haven't heard of this game in awhile, never played it. Is it worth getting?
