@Magician Thanks for the update! Did they happen to mention if FF XII is the same? @Miadaskate@SpaceAce13 I also got my shipping notice. Still not as long a wait as Pixeljunk Monsters. I appreciate the open pre-orders, but some of the wait times that can happen with them are insane.
I have many games, far too few of them played. Currently making my way through:
3DS: Bravely Default
Switch: Rune Factory 4 Special
PS4: Greedfall
PC: Satisfactory, Pathfinder Kingmaker
PS3: DS: GBA: SNES: GC: Wii:

Not yet, but I assume it will be.
Switch Physical Collection - 1,247 games (as of April 15th, 2024)

Should I even bother with the Escapists? I'm not looking for a complete collection, and having heard from many that 2 is better in almost, if not, every way doesn't motivate to spend the money on it.
According to LRG’s production updates page, Outlast 1 and 2 standard editions have begun shipping and Shantae standard edition may be ready to begin in 2 days. PixelJunk Monsters is shipping as well.
@Beedrill4Smash - I will say LRG is probably the most consistent. But choices like this (though the first isnt to scoff at, 2 is infinitely better) makes them start to slowly slink to 2nd in quality, with SRG being pretty dominant in their choice pool.
Some sad news today, my friends. Capcom Japan states that RE4 will be digital-only for all regions. On top of that, RE Origins Collection will be half physical/half download for all regions. With RE 0 on cartridge and a code for RE Remake in the box.

There is not a proper enough reaction gif to display both my outrage and my complacency about Capcom doing what I expect Capcom to do.
@Avatar40k - alright today's Japanese eShop update says FF XII does support English.

I got an email from Play-Asia that the Final Fantasy X & X-2 set will now be together on one cartridge and not two. They updated their listing to say this.
@DoomTurtle it can be done but everywhere else gets one game and a dl code. I am concerned there might be a sacrifice of quality to achieve this.
Downloadable web page of all physical switch games I can find so far.

@BryanS I don't think they'd alter the game to fit it on a card. They could, but I don't think they would. I think it's more likely that they're going for bigger cartridges in Asia. However, I think it's most likely that it will be similar to how the Banner Saga trilogy did it. Where ownership for both games is on the card, and they both require it, but there's a "patch" to grab everything they couldn't fit.

@Paraka All three games are mostly on the cartridge and under a single app entry, but I believe 2 and 3 require a download to work. Hence the big "requires internet connection" on the front of the box. It's done like any other patch or update. I just checked my storage and the game takes up 4.3 gigs.
I know some people are bothered by that, but I much prefer it over getting a code, because I can lend the Banner Saga to a friend and they can download and play it, unlike the forever gone copy of Bayonetta.
Also, Doom takes 8.3 gigs, Xenoblade 2 takes 3.9 gigs, and Breath of the Wild takes 2.2 gigs. I do miss the days of just popping a disc in and playing.
Edit: I did not try launching the game without the download installed. So I do not know if it functions without it, or just limits it. I'm willing to uninstall the patch and try if you want.

@Avatar40k - That killed the game entirely though. Cause it would render "unlendable" to said friend if you ever chose to do so if they don't have an internet connection currently, or the Switch becomes no longer supported. Both scenarios would require the download to already been in place.
I do not wish for you to make special exercises for any of us here, eventually I will get it on a sale and test it myself. Just leaves a bad taste in my mouth when companies practice literal destruction of my own license to play the games after the industry moves on.
Imagine Smash Bros Melee doing this and your mem card got deleted.
