Some good titles in the mix. Anyone have luck ordering from them online? I really don't want to end up with a bunch of loose Switch games or ones in generic cases. Just keep in mind if you get a loose game you can always go to a local store and ask if they have a case for it. If they have it they will usually give it to you. Just show them what you received and ask nicely. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cma2032 | 7 Posted August 3, 2021 Share Posted August 3, 2021 Anyone know of a good source for replacement Switch game cases w/ legit artwork? Alternatively, anyone want to trade a Tales of Vesperia empty case for a Mario Kart 8 empty case? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a group for finding components to complete your games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can try seeing if your local gamestop has the case in their preowned games and ask to swap your empty case for the legit one.

Reed Rothchild | 9,641 Editorials Team · Posted August 4, 2021 Author Share Posted August 4, 2021 Crysis physical is up. I think that marks a first ever (non-PC) physical release for the game. Looks like an Ori + Ori 2 physical as well. Streets of Rage 4 getting a 3rd release 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tabonga | 2,364 Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 (edited) Bside Games is closing theirs doors at the end of the month. https://b-sidegames.stores.jp/?utm_source=owner_mail_magazine&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=mail_magazine&utm_content=1 Their best game is probably Kamiko - everything seems to have English as an option except Ise Shima Mystery.

Tanooki | 4,958 Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Wow so much physical coming for Switch with what Reed put there yesterday and the posts since. I mean we can call this fan service, but at what point does this truly come to terms with being a push back against industry control freak garbage trying to force digital only? Sure 2-3 years ago I'd agree it's niche, but now it's like one after another, any solid indie or even non-indie game that seems could move some seriously fair numbers, they're getting picked up and made.

It’s like vinyl records. The print runs are small but the market is there to buy them up. Still, most consumers are all-digital. Those of us with shelves full of plastic cases are weirdos.

Usually if asked, I see comments like things being erased/unlicensed off media devices and being lost. Some (few admittedly) are learning the hard lesson and pushing back which is good. Paying when it says BUY to discover an expensive rental is BS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabonga | 2,364 Posted August 5, 2021 Share Posted August 5, 2021 Littlewood is sold out already - pretty quick for a Super Rare Game. (I think - never monitored their stuff that closely.) I am looking forward to their release of the Deponia collection - they have committed to it but no indication yet of when it will be out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tabonga | 2,364 Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 This looks really interesting: It can be pre-ordered through Playasia - (don't forget the discount code switchmania for 5% off). Unfortunately it looks like it won't get over here until shortly after Halloween. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tabonga | 2,364 Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 (edited) I preordered this: You can get it at Amazon for $39.99 (search for "witchspring" as one word) due out on 8/13. You can also order pricier versions at Strictly Limited - but they won't be out for awhile. Edited August 8, 2021 by Tabonga Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skorp | 383 Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Let me say collecting for the Switch has become pretty crazy with so many games already going for over $100 and are not even limited runs. Like if you told me my new Ultra Street Fighter 2 can sell for $150 now, I'd call you a nut. Good luck to you all full-set collectors for the future. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
