Normally I’d be interested as that one comes with a manual, but the North American retail artwork is vastly superior. Plus it’s a little cheaper than what Strictly Limited will end up costing.

SLG is releasing Bubble Bobble 4 again with all the DLC on the cartridge. Looks like they are restricting to those that purchased the prior version from them. 500 limit on pre-orders.
@Miadaskate - I gotta say, the range of excitement for SRG releases is so vast sometimes. None of this triple pack excites me much. Brothers being the best out of the three but sounds lukewarm at best.

For some reason they're selling these as just the loose cover sheet and game cartridge. It's a pretty generous £13.99 price though exclusive to previous buyers.
You can always buy the appropriate case separately though. https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07NTY43V9/
I had to buy one to replace a badly damaged case for Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury.
Another SRG release I'll be skipping then. This one just didn't look interesting at all.
I get their philosophy of "We only publish games we genuinely enjoyed playing" and I can see them spending time in their small office playing this a bunch, but it's no good to the primarily single-player audience that I believe overlaps with collectors.
SRG's offering of Unrailed is a sublimely disappointing announcement for my gaming tastes. But...they all can't be winners. And there's something to be said of SRG's occasional quirky choices. [OT] I spend my days hoping some boutique publisher will eventually pick up Hand of Fate 2, Into The Breach, or Just Shapes & Beats.

I wouldn't say SRG's choices are bad. They have better taste than say...First Press Games, Ultra Collectors, or even Gamefairy (and I'm fond of Gamefairy). SRG have picked more winners than losers. I'd rate them higher than LRG, if LRG didn't leverage nostalgia as well as they do.

@Magician compared to the big guns LRG ... but I guess they have better contracts. I mean LRG give us some AAA titles from time to time. Maybe because they are in the USA.
@Magician
Yes, First Press Games have quite a middling to low selection. The release I'm most anticipating from them is Mindseize and there's still no news about it.
Ultra Collectors, for some time I figured were pretty much created just to publish that mediocre Indiecalypse game, but it appears they're publishing 3000 copies of "Super Sports Blast" in 6 days time. https://www.ultracollectors.com/nintendo-switch/
Super Sports Blasts looks actually awful from the screenshots though.
Ultra Collectors appear to be a branch of Jandusoft anyway, a Catalonian developer, publisher, and porter based in Barcelona. They apparently helped to port SuperEpic? https://www.jandusoft.com/ported-games/superepic/
Super Sports Blast appears to be a competent futball game.
I have zero interest in that, but at least it's a step up from Indiecalypse.

@RupeeClock I am thinking SLG must think we will toss the original Bubble Bobble cartridge + cover and replace with the what they are offering. I will be doing what you stated - buy an aftermarket case. (retain both releases)
No mention of Red Art Games for mediocre game selection? I only own a few of their releases.
I can see how some would rate RAG as a bottom-tier boutique publisher. But they gave me a physical copy of Neurovoider, which is a 9/10 game in my book. They get a pass.
