Some of the fan reactions were pretty great too:

I am waiting for the physical version. I already have the game on Vita, PS4, PC and Xbox 360. Forever is my most anticipated game of 2018.

The Switch is the perfect indie machine

To be perfectly fair, Switch is the newest toy SMB hadn’t been on and the stereotype that Switch fans are starved for games and will buy anything vaguely of quality has merit

And yes, I did buy it again after having it on PC, PS4, Vita, and Wii U. God damn it

Meat Boy and Mudds got me into indie gaming, pretty much all I buy nowadays is indie.

To go along with one of the above comments about the Switch being the perfect platform for Indie gaming, Team Meat also agreed by provided a warning as well, "As of right now, yes. I hope that continues but any market with an influx of products is bound to become bloated without careful curation."

For those Super Meat Boy fans that have no desire to play the game on Switch, or even own the hybrid console, there's good news still. Some of the Nintendo Switch exclusive features will be making their way onto the PC platform, confirms the developing team, including the new RACE MODE that gives a two-player, split-screen experience. At this time, it's only available for the Switch but that will chance soon for PC players.
