There is no info available whether the “Lovely Edition” is an open pre-order or a limited release, so we’ll assume it is on open pre-order with an undisclosed end date. The “Lovely Edition” seems to be available only via and (yep, they told me via email). This game will get a wide-spread standard edition retail release.
What other business works this way? I think developers see digital as an opportunity to do things in a half-baked manner, which in the end will be a bad thing for the industry. If I order a meal at a diner, I don't get the burger now and the fries to take home. Or pay full price now and we'll fix the resolution later, after you've completed the game. I understand patching glitches, but a game should be 100 percent complete when it's released not pay full price now and get half the content later. Digital has moved us to a mind set of games not needing to be complete upon release, and that to me is hurting the industry. So I'm merely buying physical for the attachment to something I can place on a shelf.īeyond that, though, is a bigger issue that concerns me. The updates and patches won't be available any longer. I won't be able to drop in my Super Mario Odyssey card 20 years from now and play the game, as I can drop in my Super Mario Bros. Unless you purchase the game after the final update or patch has been made, it will not be a true version of the game. I buy physical and probably always will, but even I have to admit it's a passe concept. Check out our previous post for more details. There's the standard release from Skybound Games ( pre-order here, $34.99), and the 'Lovely Edition' available from iam8bit ( pre-order here, $39.99). If you're still interested in acquiring a hard copy, there are two options to select from. As long as you can connect to the internet on your Nintendo Switch the game will update itself. We had to lock in the physical release build long before two-player was stable enough.
#AskIndieWorldNA Will the physical version have the multiplayer update already installed? The Australian-based developer House House confirmed this during a recent Q&A session on Twitter (via the official Indie World Nintendo account). If you were hoping for everything - including the two-player update - to be on the game cartridge, unfortunately, that won't be happening. The final announcement of the Indie World Showcase earlier this week revealed the hit title of 2019, Untitled Goose Game, would be receiving a physical release and also a free multiplayer update next month.
