During yesterday’s LRG3 broadcast by Limited Run Games, it was revealed that nearly 30 games will be coming to Nintendo Switch in physical form. That’s a lot of games, so let’s go through them one by one. The games are listed by release date. Also, any title with an asterisk next to it is part of LRG’s distribution line, which means it’s selling these games on behalf of the publisher. These physical editions are not created by LRG and thus aren’t a part of its numbered releases (just FYI for those of you who are trying to keep a full collection going).

There are a couple of games worth some extra special attention here. First off, both Shantae and Xtreme Sports will be getting official reproduction Game Boy Color cartridges. Yes, you read that right! So if you’re like this writer and failed to obtain an original copy of either game back in the day, now is the time to redeem yourselves. Another entry that caught our eye is the “More River City Girls,” which as of this moment is… a total mystery! One we hope to hear more about soon, naturally.
So! That’s a ton of physical games to look forward to! Which ones will you be picking up? Tell us in the comments and on social media!
