I think it's an odd translation - it just means the "ready for retail" version but I have added it to the OP.
I find it very odd that they would totally miss putting in a physical release in the PR.
I get the account thing being an issue, really I do, but guys? The game is coming out. Were it not for the eShop we wouldn't be getting the game at all. I hate it, but it's the world we live in now, and even if you think this game had a chance to make money as a physical release, Capcom didn't.
Nemesis, would you mind putting this image in the OP? It mentions a "retail" version, whatever that means.
edit: thx
It's Capcom, that's all the evidence we need.This is true but we can't come to a conclusion without considering all pieces of evidence.
Oh what the hell Capcom.
If this is digital only, we better be getting AAI2 digital. >_>
Someone explain to me why digital only is such a terrible thing?
There's no way I'm not buying this. I love the AA games and this one looks great.
Well this could be a way for them to gauge if AAI2 digital is worth it, that's why everyone here needs to buy it digitally regardless. Refusing to buy this digitally isn't going to make Capcom think "darn we should have made a retail version" it's going to make them go "we were right AA doesn't sell in the west lets not bother localizing any more games"
Awesome but digital only? Please tell me that's a mistake.
Even if I'm going to buy the game if it's digital only, an account system would be VERY appreciated.
It shall be interesting to see how handheld and console gamers adapt to the current PC situation in North America judging by this thread.
I guess "retail" since is translated from the Japanese tráiler, and there was a "retail" version in Japan.

https://club.nintendo.com/ It's definitely not perfect but it's the only way to register your games so you can contact Nintendo support and redownload them if need be.

I wonder how much if it would have to do with media cost if so. Carts are more practical than optical for handheld games, but cost more and seemingly few people are willing to pay extra for carts despite the fidelity being roughly on par with the PS2, higher in the case of Vita. Also disappointing in that it's the bastion of Japanese niche games which tended to get better packaging, but if Vita and EOIV/Soul Hackers is any indication they may've been forced to compromise there anyway.It shall be interesting to see how handheld and console gamers adapt to the current PC situation in North America judging by this thread.
Tweeted the Capcom community manager about it. Digital only confirmed.

Club Nintendo still isn't available everywhere.

can you explain better?
Given Nintendo is already skipping ahead to Arzan Legacies and Capcom's foregoing retail for even the mainline AA series, my guess is the only way you'll see this game published at all is by Level 5 doing it themselves as an eShop exclusive.Level 5 get off your ass and release Layton vs PW soon!as dat glorious boxed copy
This better not be retail-priced then.
