Three Resident Evil games. Just 55.9 GB combined 👀
The reported Switch 2 eShop download sizes are:
• Resident Evil 2 Deluxe Edition — 14.0 GB
• Resident Evil 3 — 12.9 GB
• Resident Evil 4 Gold Edition — 29.0 GB
That’s less than the advertised capacity of a single 64 GB Switch 2 cartridge.
And yet, all three Japanese physical releases are confirmed as Game-Key Cards.
Western physical formats are still unconfirmed.
Of course, download sizes don’t tell the whole story, but when even games this small aren’t getting full-on-cart releases, it’s hard not to question these decisions.
@capcom_official , we’d love to see these games fully on cartridge.
Would you buy all three if they were released full-on-cart? 🎮
Another Switch 2 cartridge check! 🔥
🌱 Harvest Moon: Echoes of Teradea (European edition, rev. 00)
💾 On cartridge: v1.1.0
⬇️ Available update: v1.2.0 (~3.8 GB download)
Huge thanks to @boris_dg for sharing these findings!
We've added the details to GameCartDB 🎮
We had a feeling this was coming, but now it’s confirmed! 👀
Fangamer Europe has confirmed that Denshattack! is also getting a physical release for Nintendo Switch 2 in Europe in 2027! 🇪🇺
💚 Full game on cartridge
It's one of the indie games I was most looking forward to!
22 games. TWENTY-TWO! 🤯
The original Nintendo Switch is in a league of its own, with PS4 and Xbox 360 far behind at 12.
And here’s what’s crazy: PS5 is nearly 6 years old, yet Switch 2 has already matched its reported 10M+ tally in just 16 months!
Could Switch 2 ever reach 22? 🔥
More spooky good news for Switch 2 physical collectors! 🎃
The Midnight Walk is getting closer!
Super Rare Games has updated its shipping schedule, with the first batch of physical Switch 2 copies now set to ship during the week of October 26, followed by more orders the week of November 2!
The Special Edition is still expected in November.
A perfect game for the Halloween season… and another beautiful full-on-cart release to look forward to! 🕯️
Another change to the Switch 2 physical release calendar! 👀

Another Switch 2 physical release to look forward to in 2027! 🔥

100 DAYS TO GO! 🚀
We’re getting closer to Metroid Ravenous, and somehow these next few months already feel like they’re going to take forever! 😅
Samus’ next adventure is easily one of my most anticipated Switch 2 releases of 2027, and that gorgeous physical edition already has a special place waiting in my collection. 💚
January 28, 2027. The countdown continues!
Some spooky good news for horror game collectors! 👀
Observer: System Redux – Limited Edition is arriving earlier than expected in Europe!
Following previous retailer listings showing November 13, Meridiem has now officially confirmed October 28, 2026 as the European release date.
🇪🇺 Europe: October 28 (moved up!)
🇺🇸 North America: November 13 (still listed)
That’s another physical Switch 2 release joining an already packed October!
And with Halloween just around the corner, the timing couldn’t be better! 🎃
October isn’t slowing down! 👀
Next week brings 4 more full-on-cart Nintendo Switch 2 physical releases!
📅 October 22
🇯🇵 Azure Striker Gunvolt Trilogy Enhanced
🌍 Nintendo Switch Sports Resort
🇺🇸 inKonbini
📅 October 23
🇪🇺 MIO: Memories in Orbit
MIO’s North American physical release was a huge hit, with copies becoming surprisingly difficult to find. Now the European edition is finally arriving! ❤️
October is slowly coming to an end, but there’s still another busy week of physical Switch 2 releases ahead!
GameCartDB retweeted
Another glimpse into the future of every "better than nothing" key card and #PhysicalFraud disc. All bound to become "exactly the same as nothing". Only in this case it happened the other way round. Game wasn't even uploaded to begin with, it seems.
This is exactly what worries me about Game-Key Cards 😕
When the download isn’t available, your “physical game” becomes nothing more than a piece of plastic that can’t even play the game you paid for.
I’m sorry, but I just can’t consider that a real physical release.
And now we’re seeing a concerning example with Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer: Holiday Play Edition on Switch 2.
A physical owner reports being unable to download or play the game after inserting their Game-Key Card.
The console displays error 2016-0070, while the eShop lists a download size of just 82 MB, compared to around 2 GB for the Switch 1 version.
The cause is still unclear, and we don’t know how widespread the issue is.
No download. No game. That’s the risk of a format that depends entirely on external downloads.
Hopefully GameMill and Nintendo can get this resolved quickly.
Another Switch 2 Cartridge Check! 🔥
New details have surfaced about the Japanese physical edition of Another Eden Begins!
🎮 Japanese Edition
✅ On cartridge: v1.0.1
⬇️ Available update: v1.1.2 (~7.4 GB)
That’s quite a sizeable update! It addresses several issues, including New Game+ progression bugs, combat-related problems and a crash. It also adds a feature to relocate your character if they get stuck.
If you’re waiting for a Western physical release, there’s good news! @aksysgames has already confirmed plans to bring it physically in 2027! ❤️

40 years of Zelda history in one picture ❤️
The original Zelda on Famicom Disk System, my sealed copy of Ocarina of Time, and the official promotional display for its upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 release.
Different generations, different memories… but the same magic that has made this series so special for 40 years.
There’s something truly beautiful about seeing all of these together.
November 5 can’t come soon enough! 💚🧚
Two more games have joined my Nintendo Switch 2 physical collection this week! ❤️
🎮 #58 — Ratatan: Day One Edition
🎮 #59 — Blue Prince
Two very different games, but both are fantastic additions to the collection!
59 games and counting… and October certainly isn’t making it easy to slow down! 😅
The Switch 2 physical library just keeps getting better!
Another Switch 2 Cartridge Check! 👀
New cartridge details have surfaced for Ratatan – Day One Edition, thanks to a European physical copy checked by @boris_dg !
🎮 Cartridge Revision 00
✅ On cartridge: v1.0.21
⬇️ Available update: v1.1.8 (~1.4 GB)
That’s quite a sizeable update for a Day One Edition!
Huge thanks to Boris for taking the time to share these cartridge details with the community! ❤️
Things just got even more interesting with the Zelda 40th Anniversary Switch 2! 🔥
Following yesterday’s UK retailer reports, a collector has now received a response from Nintendo UK Support, stating that a version of the console with a user-replaceable battery will exist!
However, they couldn’t clarify whether the original preorders will receive this version or if we’re looking at two different hardware revisions.
And here’s where things get interesting…
With the EU’s new battery regulations taking effect in February 2027, could Nintendo be preparing to distribute this revised Zelda edition across the rest of Europe too?
And what about North America, Japan and other regions? 🌍
Nintendo hasn’t formally announced this specific revision yet, but these developments certainly raise some interesting questions!
Huge thanks to the @MattEason who shared Nintendo’s response with us! ❤️
Things are getting interesting with the Zelda 40th Anniversary Switch 2! 🔥
Following the initial Smyths listings, more UK retailers are reportedly taking preorders for a new batch of the Zelda 40th Anniversary console and Pro Controller featuring user-replaceable batteries!
Reports are coming from Smyths, ShopTo, GAME UK and The Game Collection.
🇬🇧 October 29 — Original model
🇬🇧 November 5 — Reported revised version
Nintendo had already confirmed that the 40th Anniversary collection would be restocked, but what we didn’t expect was the possibility of revised hardware!
And that raises an interesting question…
Why would Nintendo revise a limited-edition console so soon?
Could they be planning to keep this special edition available beyond February 2027, when the new European battery regulations come into effect?
Nothing officially confirmed about this specific revision yet, but it’s certainly an interesting possibility! 🤔
Another week, more physical Switch 2 games to discover! 🎮
We’ve added 4 new entries to GameCartDB this week, including three new games and a newly discovered North American release!
🇺🇸🇨🇦 Ravenswatch — Nov 15, 2026 (retailer date)
🇯🇵 Touhou Koumakyou: New Classic — Dec 17, 2026
🇪🇺🇺🇸 Shin chan Double Pack — Mar 4, 2027
🇪🇺 STARDUST: Wish of Witch — Q1 2027
Quite a nice mix this week… and the wishlist just keeps getting longer! 😅
Love seeing your collection coming together, JP! 😍
And here’s a little fun fact: as of today, 39 Nintendo Switch 2 Edition physical releases have already hit the market!
We thought it would be fun to bring them all together in one place.
That’s quite a collection to complete! 👀
