Physical copy arriving in the post soon. Looking forward to it.

@AussieMcBucket
I know, just sounds too good to be true...

I'm starting to worry that this isn't a full physical release and there'll be a required download.
Really hope I'm wrong

@michellelynn0976 they didnt do it for Dragon Quest 7 Reimagined unfortunately

@Itsashame a "game-ass videogame"

It was very poor

Glad I have a physical cart for the Switch 1 version

@KoopaTheGamer
Was about to ask if they had.
That's really disappointing

@Yosher same.
Would have loved to own this properly physically for Switch 2.
One of my favourite ever games.
I understand that it wouldnt have been possible, though.

@Pillowpants fully agree. I voted for ALttP as well.
Ocarina is incredible, but i felt like alot of the great ideas from that were already present in ALttP

@HandheldHero which ones do you think are doing it better?
I've played a lot of them and wouldn't agree.

Not sure how i feel about this character, though.
Hopefully she has a fun moveset

@Kierant202
I agree with you.
I dont pirate currently.
My stupid Switch 1, PS5 and Steam libraries can prove that.
But with the direction all of this is going, it's something I may consider in the future.

EDIT TO ADD
Basically if games end up in the same miserable situation that streaming movies and tv shows are in, the seven seas will start to look a lot more appealing

@Kierant202
For me it's a dissapointing middle ground from Nintendo with the problems of physical ownership without actual physical ownership.
Especially for games that could easily fit on a cart.
I've owned every Nintendo System since the Gameboy, I bought so many lesser versions of games on Switch to support physical ownership.
Now I'm in a situation where if I buy any Nintendo consoles in future it will be purely for their exclusives.
Or paying more attention to the "If buying isn't ownership, piracy isn't stealing" arguments

@jsty3105
Oh I know.
That last line was a joke meant to lighten the tone of my absolutely miserable comment

@Kierant202
I stated earlier that I will eventually submit to digital ownership, I did hope we'd get one more physical generation out of Switch 2 though.

I know it's Thanos. (Inevitable)
But I still think it's sad that no one cares.
Books, Music, TV, Movies have all gone digital, and not necessarily for the better.
We don't own homes, we're being pushed to rent.
AI is making device ownership unaffordable, with tech giants floating the idea of a future of renting "computing power" instead.

Companies like Hellofresh and other are trying to turn the food we eat into a subscription service.

This mass transfer of ownership has me worried for my kids' future.

And it's all Nintendo and GKC's fault....

@DennisReynolds whoops i replied to you replying to someone else while you were replying to me

@DennisReynolds
I know you're not directing this question at me, but I hold similar views to OP so wanted to comment.
At that stage I personally will accept defeat and buy games digitally where the price, performance and visuals are best.
This will inevitably mean that if I continue buying Nintendo consoles it will nearly always be solely for their exclusives

@Grumblevolcano other platforms absolutely aren't safe.
There's plenty of PS5 games that dont include the full game already, especially when you start taking updates into account.
I personally dont like that PS5 games require full installation on the HD and the disc then becomes a key.
I know they run better that way though.
What I want is true physical.
Game is complete on cart/disc and runs directly from it.
But I'm an old (but still very handsome) man shouting at clouds and most people don't care.
Picked up MHS3 on Steam this week and enjoying it.

@UltimateOtaku91 Steam

@Moroboshi876 I at least would have bought it for Switch 2 if it had come on the cart.
Got it on Steam instead

@Pillowpants they dont, but if I'm forced to buy digital, I'll buy it where the price is the cheapest and the performance is better

I'd have put up with frame dips if they had realeased this fully on a cart, but going with PC/Steam Deck for this one

In relation to these amiibo, I think Leon looks ridiculous, but I'll probably still get it. He starred in my two fave RE games (four faves, if I count the REmakes as seperate to the og's) so I'd love to have his amiibo in the collection

@Mr_Persona Can imagine they're ridiculous prices now.
I had to import Malzeno from the US, couldnt find any EU online retailers selling it.
Normally wouldnt go to that much effort but Rise was the first MH that "clicked" for me after a few tries with previous games.
Turned me into an MH fanatic

@rvcolem1 that's awful, I'm so sorry for your loss.
I hope you were able to get back on your feet okay after that.

@rvcolem1 seems your preference for game ownership will be forced on all very soon if it hasn't been already.
I hope it works out well for you and all of us.

I have to wonder, after the MK "Kollection", how full will the game card release be?
We might need to wait for reviews and a week or so after release to know for sure...

@rvcolem1
Does your sentiment apply to people that want to own full physical copies or just Game Key Cards?

Oh wow, So Indy is complete on a cartridge?
I've been waiting for the right time to buy and play that game.
If it's complete on a cartridge I'll buy and play it on Switch 2.
Delighted with this news!

@antlion the Magnamalo and Malzeno amiibo were great.
Only good ones I can think of though

@Chlocean like @Ashina mentioned above, I'm pretty sure they were trying to avoid showing blood and gore in the direct

@Uncle_Franklin
That's kinda the point with Androids

I want to see exclusives.
Multiplats don't interest me anymore for Switch.
I own an okay gaming pc and a Steam Deck.
I stuck with inferior Switch 1 ports last gen because at least i could own them physically on a cartridge.
Nintendo can't offer that anymore so I'll buy multiplats on Steam where i'll get better performance on the big screen and similar performance on the Steam Deck.

@hel105
Amazing, thank you!!
I bought the physical versions for Switch 1 so I could own the games physically properly, despite the downgraded visiuals and performance.
I was under the impression SE didn't do Switch 2 upgrade paths.
Strange that they have them for some but not others.
Thanks again.

@Bobobiwan
Does Tactics and DQ3 have an upgrade path if you owned the switch 1 carts?

It's a good game that should have been great.
Some incredible moments dragged down by bafflingly bad decisions and half baked ideas.
Somehow, after all this time, it's clear that Retro needed WAY more time with this one.

Guess I'll buy this for Switch 2 since this is a rare third party release that has the full game on the cart

@0ohHeWrong
They came back.
Apparently the "Finished" status on the product page only means that the "Design" is Finished.
This is nonsense.
I've asked how long till I receive my order and how do I request a refund

@GetontheStiix
I just emailed their customer support on the thread I opened with them last year.
Will provide update here if they respond.

@ear_wig yep.
They sent me a steam key for the game to apologise last year.
But that's nit good enough.
Do we have a way to demand refunds?

@Toastmaster
Thank you for sharing this.
Amazing

I did but I already preordered on the evening of the Switch 2 Direct from Smyths

@Blofse same. Well, Ireland.
Hope we get the comic.
My delivery date is 4th of December :')

Since Switch is the only platform you can buy a physical version for that I know of I'll be picking this up

Mine was Persona 5 Royal with 177 hours.
TOTK was second with 133

@Anti-Matter have you played it?

High hopes for this one.
The name is gas

@rjejr
I think you'll be pretty surprised by the amount you'll get out of the postgame.
Took me around 45 hours to 100% everything.
Make sure you have a word with Olimar

@RareFan
I'm a long time Pikmin fan and absolutely love this game
There's a very meaty post game after the credits roll, so meaty it feels like they hid half of the game behind the initial credits rolling, and there's some great difficulty in there

I wish Remnant 2 was selling better
