Wait, is it just a booklet? I thought it was also including an Audio CD? Did that not happen or did you just not mention it? (I'm trying to decide whether it's worth importing)
There's supposed to be a mini CD too, yeah.

Wrong about commas, wrong about everything
Really want to buy this but 30€ is hard to justify

This is out on Tuesday? Shiiiit. I am off all week. Gonna hit this shit hard.
Also, I'm pretty sure I accidentally pre-ordered two copies from Best Buy, and they won't let me cancel it 'cause it's so close to release.

Got the physical release pre-ordered, love all the physical goodies that come in Nicalis physical Switch games so far.

Nicalis added some new water effect they really wanted to show off and fuck you if you don't like it.
And I'm only slightly exaggerating.
If we're lucky, it'll get added in a patch. Maybe,

Can't wait. Would have loved to keep the 16bit look but they seem to have put in some work on the new look. Down for a GCU physical version.
Amazon.com import is 33 to Germany. Maybe you can get it cheap there too?Maybe I should import then, at Nedgame.nl a Dutch website it's 55
1: Yes.
2: I did a video comparison of Switch vs. PC: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7t-Acqxdyh8&feature=youtu.be
Never played the PC version, so I can't say. I've only unlocked one of the Challenges. I'd imagine Machine Gun challenge is still available.

Why no simultaneous release in EU?
Oh hey, portrait boxes are now facing the correct direction that the character is in and they're animated. Party like it's 1999!

Own the Steam version...which I regrettably haven't played that much of, but I won't be able to pass up owning a physical version for Switch and hopefully see it through to completion this time.
The Switch version looks much better, minus the fugly water (neither version is particularly good looking in that regard though).
Decided to pick up at launch despite the co-op not launching til later. Not like I haven't already played through the game multiple times!

Because Europe is missing on their map, Atlus gave them their old one when they brought a new one.

Updated graphics, a CD, a nice manual. Buy physical and it's worth it.

From what I've read, I don't think so
They want that Bomberman money.
Although I'm happy with the price for the physical version (especially considering what it comes with) I have to agree that it's a pretty rough break for digital-only folks.
Personally, as long as Nicalis keep having manuals and other goodies for their first-print of physical copies I'll continue to give them my money on day-1. Can't wait to hear what Blade Strangers is coming with; here's hoping for some Umihara Kawase stuff!

Nicalis is so fucking incompetent regarding EU... on PS4 1001 spikes took more than 1 year to come. More than effin one year. They are unable to give release dates or window so let's not even talk about simultaneous release. It's like they management is stuck in the 90ies.
Very hard to support such a publisher

Is there anything special with the physical version like with Isaac?

Never played the game before and I guess now is as good a time as ever to jump in.
I think just Gamestop exclusive stuff. (same price as other retailers)

CD, a nice throwback manual, and updated graphics. Plus co-op soon.
Thankfully, only the keychain is Gamestop-exclusive, otherwise I'd be mad (I have my copy pre-ordered at Amazon).
Anyway, I'm super-excited for this. I'm already looking forward to replaying this game, truly one of the best.

Picking this up because I love collecting physical copies of PC/indie games.

I paid good money for this Dynex!
It's a little weird for NWR to call the Wiiware version the definitive one.
I pulled a comparison chart from here: http://cavestory.wikia.com/wiki/Version_differences
Chart isn't updated for the Switch release. Outside of the option for the original graphics and some tweaks to the updated graphics, it's pretty much 1:1 with the PC release? I know Nicalis promised an update for co-op support later, right? That's about all they're adding to this release over previous ones?
No, they added content to the Switch version. Dunno what it actually entails, but yeah. And there will be a co-op update at some point.

I'll get this as soon as the co-op gets added

Mine also came with the Cd. Just didn't mention it since I don't have a Cd player at all in my house so it's pretty useless right now.
Also got to remember is the book and Cd are only in the first print editions of the game.

My copy came with everything but the pouch. I just need to rip that mini CD (lol @ Apple SuperDrive). Gotta admit that Nicalis has been ace for including that booklet with this and Issac.
