Since this is probably a guaranteed digital only release for English markets, hopefully they continue the trend of an Asian physical release with English language support. Just like Okami and Onimusha. Then I'll import just like I did for those.

If not...well I'd rather just keep my digital pc copy and save the micro sd card space.

@roadrunner343 Yep. I'm most def looking forward to the Soulja360 and the Soulja3 too. Tired of staring at my dusty old "official" consoles. RIP Microsoft and Sony.

I'll wait for the SouljaBoy thank you very much.

Not that I'm complaining but it's always funny to me to see games or pictures like the one above where all the men are covered almost every inch with armor and the women are the exact opposite haha.

If you're gonna give us guys some nice, not practical battle attire to look at, then give the ladies something to. Equal opportunity skinage!

@El_Murcielago It's listed under retail which I'm guessing means it's a physical release. But I can't find it anywhere. You see it anywhere or anyone else? I only found the UK version but this list is for NA.

Damn...that's a decent sale. I hope some come to the US too.

@Megal0maniac Oh I definitely agree it should be cheaper. Like you said Okami was a great example. I imported the physical version and even that was cheaper than TWEWY lol.

@DrJiggle I don't get it either man. Good luck with an import copy at a good price if you want it.

@Megal0maniac Ouch...how about the digital version? Is that the same price as digital here? Here as in US where I am lol.

Wait you are talking about digital aren't you. That blows.

@DrJiggle Wasn't it $40 new on DS? It's only $10 more for switch. Granted you can still make the argument that it should be $40. Would definitely be easier to swallow. But it's only a 25% increase not 50%.

Freaking love this game. Bring on the dlc.

@ShaiHulud Well that's stupid of Capcom. Sorry to hear that :/

@ShaiHulud What region are you in that's not getting the Switch physical version? Or do you just get digital only on Switch?

@nessisonett Haha

Either that dude is real tall or that lady is real tiny in that picture. That is all I have to add.

Glad you guys are here with this hard hitting journalism lol

@Sakura Yeah that's how I thought it would be. Well I plan to just ride the whole game out with Star Fox and his arwing haha. Micro transactions be damned.

@The_Mysteron Thankfully it's been confirmed that none are necessary. You can get any of the of physical stuff in the game. Don't remember if that means it's unlockable in the game itself or it's just a micro transaction though. Probably the second part since they would still want you to spend money for it. But atleast you don't have to have a bunch of the toys laying around.

@Joeynator3000 I demand 2 little discs the size of switch carts now when I buy this game. Do not disappoint me WB...

@Nintendofan83 Gonna agree with you here. He makes it seem like this is a Nintendo only thing which I highly doubt. No company gives full exposure to all of it's indie titles and to expect that is kind of odd. There are a crap ton of indie games I have for switch that were never shown in any kind of direct or given a tweet since the launch of the system.

I remember they did get a ps blog post about their game from Sony. I'm guessing they are upset they didn't get the same treatment from Nintendo. Bottom line is none of the big 3 gives equal attention to every single one of it's hundreds of indie games. Sorry?

@hatch Don't know if it's a console exclusive or not but it is on pc as well. So there's hope.

@Julien Well it's officially ended and you can't get 20% off anything anymore. As promised, all 9 of my orders still show the discount so everything appears to be locked in.

@Mamabear Yeah there have been a good amount of games discounted to close to 20% off for everyone in the past. I haven't seen too many at that nice of a discount lately though. I'm pretty sure you're right in that it was to get non prime members ordering and possibly get them to become prime members to enjoy that discount on all games. Though that's all a wash now lol.

Now it just remains to be seen how generous they are with the credit they are going to offer for prime members and if they still discount certain titles for preorder for everyone too.

@Julien Now you're saying it was a joke and still seem angry with me by saying to put you in your place? I just said I'd do it for you. Didn't say anything about putting you in your place. I said I'd do it in spite of your attitude implying I'm doing it cause you asked.

Either there is a major disconnect between American and British humor here or you just keep going after me for no reason. I mean I'll accept I'm on a UK site so if anyone is to blame it's probably me. But could you just be straight with me and drop the sarcasm or humor or whatever for my sake? Because honestly it's confusing me.

And do you still want to know if the pre order prices stick or not? Trying to ask a serious question here. Cause it doesn't cost me anything to place the orders or tell you what happens.

Victor Vran for me. Loved it on pc and never bought the dlc so can't wait!

@Julien So I tell you what I know about Amazon's pre order system so you can take advantage of the discount and you automatically be incredibly rude to me? Why did you even ask to begin with then?

And sure. Just for you I'll bookmark this and get back to you on the 29th. Don't know why I should though with your attitude.

@TDS_Computer I still prefer physical cause I tend to sell a lot of my games after I beat them and plan to not play them again. Can't be doing that with digital! Saves me a lot of money.

@Regpuppy Unfortunately uh...I have a game buying problem which has definitely not been helped with 20% off games haha. I'll be doing the opposite and focusing on my massive game backlog. Guess my wallet is gonna be thanking Amazon and Best Buy.

@Julien Once you lock in a order for something that price is guaranteed under their preorder price guarantee. Unless it was a price glitch of course then it's up in the air. Otherwise your price can never go up only down until it's released.

Just make sure you tie it to a credit card that has a pretty far out there expiration date if you're ordering anything without a confirmed release date. If you edit an order in any way, that all goes out the window I imagine.

@Regpuppy Same here man haha. My open orders list on Amazon is pretty damn long now. But I've always been good at keeping track of it so no worries.

@Fezzik I was hoping for that as well. Especially after hearing it will all be on one cart. Sadly nope. Atleast I'll be able to snag it at Best Buy in time for 20% still.

Since Amazon doesn't charge you until the item ships, this is a great strategy to effectively hold the 20% price for any game you're interested in. Just keep a list of what you ordered or go to the open orders section on Amazon to look at all your preorders.

@Kimyonaakuma I know right? It would definitely make me buy more games. As well as saving me from regretting some purchases as well though. So I guess it's a two way street lol.

@ramu-chan Me and a friend just recently played the original to get ready for the sequel and experienced no frame drops. So I'm guessing whatever issues you had are fixed now.

And come on Nintendo Life. Me and others told you the US price is listed at $24.99 on your other article and even linked to the official Nintendo US store page at $24.99 but you still have the wrong price listed.

Once again for clarification: https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/overcooked-2-switch

You even have the correct price on your own site under the game's page. Now I'm even more confused why it's wrong. https://www.nintendolife.com/games/nintendo-switch/overcooked_2

@Aozz101x Lmao woooooo

Please do this in the US too...

@onex I don't like preorder exclusive stuff either generally. But atleast it's just a cosmetic thing. And maybe I'm different but I never really cared about the chef I picked in the first game. I just randomly picked one lol. Game is too chaotic to appreciate the character you picked.

So you're not really missing out on much if you don't preorder it in my opinion. So wait for a nice sale

@MoonKnight7 We need to stop double teaming this poor guy lmao. Sorry for blowing up your notifications @ieatdragonz

@ieatdragonz As far as I know the physical release date is set for the same day as well. Atleast every store I can look up has the 7th as the release date for physical pre orders. Though it does cost a whooping $15 more for physical.

@MoonKnight7 Haha yep. Yeah it's odd to me that there is so much confusion. Especially since apparently they gave Ryan that pricing when their own eshop listing says differently. Them not including the Switch exclusive chef preorder bonus in the press release is weird too.

@ieatdragonz Not a digital preorder only bonus. Applies to physical too as shown by the Amazon store page.

https://www.amazon.com/Overcooked-2-Nintendo-Switch/dp/B07DPKYRRL/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1532612430&sr=8-1&keywords=Overcooked+2

Man the confusion in this article and comment section is hot today lol.

@WindWakerLink The physical edition comes out the same day as digital

@ryancraddock Guess I'll preorder sooner than later just in case the price changes haha. And the console exclusive chef to Switch is this one I'm talking about. It's listed on the Amazon store page in one of the promo images as a Switch exclusive chef. I'm guessing it's that way for the eshop too.

For reference: https://www.amazon.com/Overcooked-2-Nintendo-Switch/dp/B07DPKYRRL/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1532612430&sr=8-1&keywords=Overcooked+2

@Spoony_Tech I want to play this with a friend day 1 so I'm preordering anyways. But the wording at various different places confuses me whether or not some or all of these characters are preorder exclusive.

I know 1 is a switch exclusive atleast. Don't know why Nintendo Life didn't list him since this is a an article about the switch listing. It's the platypus chef. Brings the total to 6 chefs.

@ryancraddock That and the price for the US digital version should be reflected in the article

Last I checked it was $24.99 here in the states not $29.99.

https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/overcooked-2-switch

@Nico07 Haha yep I feel the same way. I'm definitely not buying any of the extra regular physical toys for it. But my nostalgic heart would have a hard time resisting the rest of the Star Fox crew.

Who is the game really for? Kids and adults lol. It's not that hard to grasp. I appreciate the in depth look at the game but that just kinda seemed silly to me. It seems like it'll be simple and fun enough for older kids while still giving a story and gameplay that can be fun for adults. Atleast from what I've seen and read from different places.

The switch version with Fox is most definitely aimed at adults who grew up with Star Fox. They're working that nostalgia angle. And hell, it worked for me so they're doing something right. The game went from meh...I could play it some day I guess to yeah I'm preordering this lol. I may end up beating it and selling it soon after if it doesn't have any lasting appeal but they definitely scored a preorder from me. So bonus points for the continued Ubisoft/Nintendo collaboration.

EDIT: I should add the 20% off with GCU really helped soften the blow. So I don't blame others for not wanting to jump in at that price tag. I honestly wouldn't have if I didn't get the 20% off.

Another Metal Slug! Metal Slug series is my jam!

@ryancraddock Thanks for the reply! I'm guessing it'll probably roll out when the eshop updates in about 30 minutes for us here in the US.

@Rhaoulos You unlock tons of permanent stuff though? I thought true Rogue games had no unlocks period.

When you guys say it's available now do you mean in the UK? Cause it isn't showing up yet for me in the US.
