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

@Zuljaras - Well in NA they're widely available online. But in-store I have not seen.

Will give you a heads up when I get it. Should be my next paycheck (unless some items I am selling sell before that).

@Paraka Thank you in advance

I read that the EU cartridge of Ori Collection is containing the patches for the games while the NA cartridge has only the base versions.

That is important for people that want to have cartridges with the latest patches

@Zuljaras
That's an interesting development if true, if I do happen to get the Ori Collection cartridge I will confirm it.
Not sure if I will though.

@Zuljaras @RupeeClock

I ordered a copy of Ori Collection from Shop4.

Hopefully I'll be able to confirm all updates are on cartridge myself in a couple weeks.

So Crysis 2 and 3 physical editions will be made my LRG. Interesting choice since 1 is a normal retail release.

This thread on Reddit seems to indicate that the EU and Australia releases are complete on the cartridge.

Does the UK usually get the same release as the EU?

@Zuljaras LRG are releasing a steelbook for Crysis 1.

@MarioBrickLayer
Yeah, UK typically receives the same EU region releases as France, Germany, Spain, and Italy. At least as multi-language releases are concerned.
Though the packaging may differ, the cart's ROM will be the same.

Definitely not sure if it does include English language support, but seeing as previous Japanese releases did, I'm betting this one does as well. I'm still holding out for a release in the West though.

Well, as I suspected, Square is still on the fence for a more dedicated port of Kingdom Hearts.

I would say we can thank SEA region for such, as they are prolific for RPGs and Disney.

Look at the code on the bottom of the front of the UK carts, they usually end with -EUR. The only thing that differs in the different European language versions are the box inlays.
I own the French version of Mario + Rabbids which states Mario + the Lapins Crétins on the box but on the cart sticker it says Mario + Rabbids.

@Zuljaras @Magician @MarioBrickLayer
I received an EU release physical copy of Ori The Collection today, and I can confirm that the latest versions of the games are on the cartridge.

Blind Forest: Definitive Edition is v1.0.2 and Will of the Wisps is v1.2.0.
No updates are available to download.
The package inserts include a download code for two original game soundtracks, and a packet of 6 small art cards.

@RupeeClock I will order it tomorrow along with Dying Light

I almost never order EU releases unless no NA exist - now this Ori Collection (complete) has sparked my interest. Not seeing it here: https://www.shop4megastore.com. What is another shop to look at who may have it?

@Belexes
I suppose you could try Amazon UK.
https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ori-The-Collection-Nintendo-Switch/d...
This appears to be a reseller listing rather than Amazon directly.

Heads up to physical collectors in the US that Dying Light is already sold out at Target, Best Buy, and Game Stop. I managed to snag a copy from Amazon, but there's no telling how long supplies will last--especially now that word is getting out how good it is.

I can’t imagine this game being good on the Switch. I’ll stick with my PS4 copy.

It looks like Horizon Chase Turbo has got a PS4 physical release with the new Senna DLC in Brazil, hopefully this comes to to switch!

There are also pictures on Twitter of some sort of big box physical edition. Here are some pictures:-

Castlevania Collection arrived today.
