Topic: Switch Physical Boxed Games List & Release Dates (US & CA)

@RupeeClock YES! Finally!

Blasphemous is up on AmazonNA. I suppose now's the time to fire my LRG copy to see if it's worth spending the extra $40 just to swap cartridges. I also have eyes on Epic Chef. I'm curious to see a different developer's perspective on the Harvest Moon farming-sim formula.

@Magician I posted about this on pg 428. (albeit Best Buy) Not certain if I will swap out LGR or have both at this point.

Clive n Wrench sounds like a blatant Ratchet & Clank ripoff lol

So, for those that bought Abzu, did you go with Standard, or Steelbook?

So excited for Castlevania. It’s official, going up May 14th with 4 different editions on a 6-week pre-order. I still need to buy the DOOM collection before it closes!

@Miadaskate Standard for me. I appreciate steelbooks, but don't actively collect them.

I went with standard too.

@Miadaskate - It's going to be closer to Banjo-Kazooie than Ratchet & Clank.

Though weaponized platformers are fewer than buddies, so I would be open to the idea.

I went for the Abzu steelbook in this case, since it's a nice add-on to the game even if it not really necessary.
The initial public sales for Abzu haven't been too bad, but I feel that they may struggle to sell-through this one because of past digital sales where it went for as cheap as $2.

If the Shadow Box of the Castlevania collection plays Bloody Tears (CV2 version) I will waste 180$ with a Thanos's finger snap!

I went with the steelbook. That’s my 1 weakness, I love them. And Abzu’s steelbook is amazing looking

I like this trend of lightboxes from LRG.
Too expensive to consider though. I'll likely stick with the Bloodlines edition (despite the Classic edition making more sense).

I just meant the names.

@Miadaskate
Wrench's name is a pun on the term Monkey Wrench anyway.

Doesn’t mean they aren’t similar. 🤷‍♂️

An EU physical release listing for Crash Bandicoot 4 It's About Time has shown up on GAME and on 365games.

https://www.365games.co.uk/nintendo-switch-games/crash-bandic...

It has a release date of TBC, but this is notable after the launch of the game noticeably lacked an EU physical release when compared to the US.

I’ve never been so tempted to spend nearly $200 on a video game before. I’m honestly considering this castlevania collectors edition. Someone please stop me

@SpaceAce13 Me too But there are 3 things to consider:

1. Do you want the awesome steelbook case?
2. Do you want the awesome History of Castlevania book?
3. Do you want a shadowbox that plays Castlevania music?

@Zuljaras @SpaceAce13
Something of discouragement, is that the poster in the collector's edition box will no doubt be folded and creased, rather than rolled.
I never got the appeal of folded posters.

@RupeeClock Thanks for trying to save us the money But I really do not care about posters Unless they are made of metal

@Zuljaras Yes to all of your questions. I’m a sucker for steel books and that’s book is so cool too. I’m gonna have to think on this one for a while
