Honestly I am beyond relieved by the lack of new physical announcements. Tokyo Mirage Sessions and that's it. Little Town Hero, digital only. The new Kirby spinoff, digital only. Overwatch, digital only, sans the code-in-a-box pseudo-physical nonsense.

$60 for Xenoblade? That really sucks. I wanted it to be Xenoblade Chronicles X, with that and Tokyo Mirage I'd have everything I ever wanted on the Wii-U, which I skipped. Instead they're selling me a 3rd copy of the first game. For full price. And we all know I'm going to buy it...
I don't mind that Little Town Hero is digital only, the trailer did not impress me.
I'm going to keep an eye on Assassin's Creed Rebel Collection. If they got it to run better than 3 it's the only game before Origin I'm willing to buy again.
And about the Spyro stuff. I'll definitely be keeping an eye out for any info about the other regions getting a better release. I waited 20ish years for the remake, I can wait longer...
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:
My Nintendo: Avatar40k | Nintendo Network ID: Avatar40k
@Avatar40k I'm dropping into EB games to see what comes on the EU carts just to make sure. An ebay retailer said it comes with the first game on it so fingers crossed. (but not getting my hopes up)
A bit expensive to my taste, but it is a fun game.
It's a shame that Little Town Hero is digital only, but I wouldn't be suprised if Limited Run Games announced a physical release, considering them releasing Giga Wrecker Alt., which was also made by Game Freak.
And I'm really excited for Slay the Spire on the cartridge, but Amazon.com taxes...
Does anybody here know a good website shipping US releases to EU tax-free and with reasonable shipping prices? My best choice for the moment is videogamesplus.ca, but they seem to sell out of stock rather quickly sometimes.

Many of us hear researched for an all physical release - none found and does not appear likely.
@Magician - I am still suspicious of Town's physical release being absent. Like Snipperclips before it I can see it drumming up some sales releasing around the emptier months.
By this point I am all on board for Nintendo to send a death knell on the Wii U. Port everything else, 3D World, Star Fox Zero, both Zeldas, Pikmin 3. Just do it, keep the momentum going.

Since Little Town Hero is a budget title I could see it being another Game Freak game that LRG will offer a physical release for, like Giga Wrecker Alt previously.

@Magician - I thought Town was published by Nintendo?
They did. That may or may not hinder a potential LRG release. I've seen stranger things.

Yes please to this. Include The Wonderful 101 and DuckTales Remastered.
finally the final chapter for Celeste launches on the 9th. So hopefully the physical copies aren't too far away (and I can finally play Iconclast which I have bundled with that order)

I agree with this as well; it will keep me from having to buy a Wii U.

@Miadaskate Yes, don't buy a great console that has free online and the ability to play Wii games for only about 100 bucks.
I don’t appreciate your tone.
Since you seem to care so much about my opinion on the topic, I’ll leave you with this :
1. I just recently got a Wii.
2. You can’t play the Wii games on the Wii U tablet. The Switch is a way better portable system.
3. I have Switch, PS4, and Xbox One, for online play, I’m sure the Wii U online services will be closed down eventually.
4. $20 a year for online and free games is nothing.
5. The majority of great Wii U games have been ported over to the Switch already; might as well bring the others like 3D World, Twilight Princess HD, and Wind Waker HD. Those are the only Wii U games I need. Those three. Why buy an outdated system for three games when I could wait and get them on the Switch (potentially)? If I don’t have to, that would be great. I believe the ports will continue as it has shown to be easy money for Nintendo. Complain all you want, but I bet you’re 100% rebuying those Wii U games on Switch. Why do you think I should buy an entirely different system for three games?
6. Gamestop sells refurbished Wii U’s for $130, not $100. Why spend that when I could wait and continue supporting the Switch?
7. The Switch is my first Nintendo console since the SNES, so yeah; I’m making up for lost time.
8. MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS.
