New Arrival - MIO: Memories in Orbit, BlazBlue Entropy Effect X

Some new physical games, one for Switch 1 and one for Switch 2. But weirdly enough, it is the Switch 2 physical release that is the good one this time and the Switch 1 that is crap. So first of all, MIO: Memories in Orbit, a Metroidvania that got released a few months ago, for both Switch 1 and 2, but with no upgrade pack unfortunately. Back on release, it was announced that it would eventually get a physical release too, for both Switch 1 and 2, so I waited before buying it. I was sure that on Switch 2, it would be a Game-Key Card, being such a small title...BUT NOPE! The entire game is here on the cart! Well, there was a 900MB update but it's way below the size of the entire game. So if small indie teams start releasing more and more Switch 2 game complete on cart, maybe we will see less and less Game-Key Card on the market (maybe it's also a sign that there's more option than just the 64GB one). Let's hope so!

On the other hand, BlazBlue Entropy Effect X might as well not have a physical release. The game on the eShop is around 4.5GB. And well, the update is also around that size too. The Switch 1 game turns out to be the one closer to a Game-Key Card this time. What a waste of money. At the very least, it's the Deluxe Edition by default, but even with that, it would still have been cheaper on the eShop. As for the game, it seems to be some kind of action-platforming roguelike in the BlazBlue universe, which is maybe one of my favorite fighting game franchise. So I'm sure I'll enjoy it. It's just the physical version that left a sour taste in my mouth. Avoid this one and buy it digitally instead.
