Keep what you play. The catalog of Nintendo Switch 2 games that are complete on the cartridge. 🌎

[GameCartDB @GameCartDB]

The Witcher 3 Remastered reportedly has an eShop file size of 43.5 GB on Switch 2. 👀

That’s enough to fit the entire game on a 64 GB cartridge!

@CDPROJEKTRED already gave us Cyberpunk 2077 fully on cart on Switch 2.

Nothing announced yet, but we’re optimistic we’ll see it fully on cart again! 🤞

@fgmenth I hope there are a few more delays because what's coming is crazy 😅

[GameCartDB @GameCartDB]

A look at October’s most anticipated full-on-cart Switch 2 releases, based on GameCartDB user follows. 👀

Silksong takes the #1 spot, followed by Lies of P and Xenoblade Chronicles 2.

I’m honestly a little surprised to see Nintendo Switch Sports Resort make the top 5.

One important note: Hollow Knight and Silksong have both been delayed to November in Europe.

Would this be your top 5 too, or would you change anything?

@MetroidFREAK21 👏👏

Hey, listen! 🧚

Just 40 days to go until Ocarina of Time.

November 5 still feels far away… but the countdown is officially on 🔥🔥

👀 New Switch 2 physical listing spotted!

Vaewolf has quietly appeared on Play-Asia for both North America and Europe.

📅 2027 — date TBA
💾 Full-on-cart release expected, but not confirmed yet.

We haven’t seen this physical release announced anywhere else so far, so we’ll be keeping a very close eye on it.

Who said physical games were dead? Doesn’t look that way from here. 🙂

[GameCartDB @GameCartDB]

Three new full-on-cart Switch 2 releases joined the catalog this week.

Wandering Sword is the one I’d keep an eye on: developed in China, currently only announced physically in Japan, and the Japanese release includes at least English.

It’s also giving me some serious Octopath Traveler vibes 👀

Could end up being a very interesting import if no Western release appears

[GameCartDB @GameCartDB]

I NEED this soundtrack. NOW. 😭

It only takes a few seconds of the Ocarina of Time title theme — Link riding Epona across Hyrule Field at sunrise — to send me straight back to my childhood.

Some games you remember. Others become part of you.

This is one of those games for me.

[GameCartDB @GameCartDB]

Another small shift in the Switch 2 physical calendar.

Moonlighter 2: The Endless Vault moves from Nov 13 to Nov 20 in Europe.

North America still doesn’t have a confirmed release date yet.

Thankfully, this one is only a one-week delay 😄

[GameCartDB @GameCartDB]

The calm before the storm 👀

Grim Trials is the only full-on-cart Switch 2 release this week.

Several languages on cart: 🇬🇧 🇯🇵 🇪🇸 🇫🇷 🇩🇪 🇮🇹 🇵🇹 🇨🇳 🇮🇩

Enjoy the quiet… October is coming 😅

[GameCartDB @GameCartDB]

@luisff24 @FangamerEU The Fangamer website still lists October 16, so I assume the North American release date is still valid :)

[GameCartDB @GameCartDB]

Hollow Knight and Silksong have slipped in Europe.

@FangamerEU and several retailers have reported a production delay affecting both Switch 2 physical editions:

🇪🇺 Europe: Nov 27
🇺🇸 North America: no delay announced so far — retailers are still listing Oct 16

Europe has to wait a little longer. 😭

[GameCartDB @GameCartDB]

@einfachxalex Exactly! We focus on full-on-cart releases.

We may occasionally cover GKC issues, but we’ll always make that clear. When it comes to our catalog, you can be sure the games we feature are fully on cart! 💪

[GameCartDB @GameCartDB]

UNBEATABLE: Breakout Edition has been delayed in Europe.

🇪🇺 Europe: Oct 30, 2026 → Mar 31, 2027
🇺🇸 North America: still listed for Oct 30 at several retailers

Interestingly, iam8bit has also changed its North American listing from Oct 30 to Q4 2026.

No official delay confirmed for North America yet, but release dates are definitely moving. 👀

[GameCartDB @GameCartDB]

@Ares36Play I never cease to be surprised by the direction this industry is taking 😔

[GameCartDB @GameCartDB]

Wait… we’re doing code-in-a-box releases for Switch 2 Editions now?!

As if Game-Key Cards weren’t enough 😭

I honestly can’t believe this.

[Does it play? @DoesItPlay1]

So, there are now Switch 2 Editions released as code-in-a-box?!

What are we doing, games industry?

[GameCartDB @GameCartDB]

Por desgracia es algo que no solo ocurre en la industria del videojuego, la del cine también ocurre y te diría en todas las plataformas que vendan assets digitales. En todos los términos y condiciones se escudan en que realmente estás haciendo “renting” hasta nuevo aviso (normalmente por problemas de licencias). Lleva ocurriendo más de una década, de ahí la importancia del formato fisico 💪

[GameCartDB @GameCartDB]

@DoesItPlay1 This game is really addictive… I can't wait for the sequel to come out!

@MattMarzX Switch 2? Switch 1 and PlayStation 5 can be found in any store.

[GameCartDB @GameCartDB]

Super Bomberman Collection for Switch 2 has received another release date update.

🇪🇺 Europe: Sep 25 → Oct 30
🇺🇸 North America: Sep 25 → Oct 30

The physical release remains exclusive to Red Art Games and Video Games Plus.

Looks like October just got a little busier! 👀
