I can only choose between express $23.99 or overnight for $36 for a physical edition that cost $74? Nah I’m good.
evilpenguin9000
I was considering ordering it, it’s $75 with another $25 for shipping minimum. I couldn’t bring myself to spend that that much for a bunch of games I’ve already beaten.
_DontStayTheSame_
FF fans. Isn’t the pixel series no different than previous iterations? I remember hearing how mixed people were on this
AMURO_RAY_LIOTTA
Definitely overpriced since it comes out to $100 shipped, but this has been my number one want on switch since the console released so fuck it I’m buying it
Bone_Dogg
So I’ve played 6, which is good. And 1 which is ok. How’s the rest of them?
CangaWad
God damn man. $100 US for the physical version?
I was thinking about it, but I can’t even order and was put on the ‘waiting list’.
I used to prefer collecting video games over magic cards because you didn’t have to deal with this bullshit.
expyrian
Switch version already has a wait list…
Honey-and-Venom
A new release of turn based final fantasy…. Even if it’s the old ones again, I miss it so much
RockmanVolnutt
I have most of these titles on the gba and they are great to play on a micro. If I could buy this physical from Amazon or similar for msrp, even at $75, I would probably go for it, but that ordering option is not great.
ertaboy356b
Hope they bring the physical in asia.
YourMotherLovedMe
Middle of the night, and already sold out? That’s a bit too limited. People complain to high hell about limited run and stuff, but at least I’m given a period of time to order and can guarantee my copy of a game…
blackandwhitetalon
Inject this straight into my veins
Vanilla-Moose
It’s about time I can suplex trains on the switch now
blacksun89
So… GBA version still the best one ?
ahri_valentine
I saw this too late so I can’t pre-order a standard edition anymore. Does this mean they won’t ever sell it again and that’s that?
Karuro
>A small run of a physical standard edition … quantities will be extremely limited
They have no idea what a standard edition means, do they?
€75 is also way too much, pass. Not like I could’ve ordered anyways by the looks of it lol.
Vehicle-Mountain
They could’ve made a lot more money with a normal quantity physical release available in all shops worldwide.
ggsmart88
Would LOVE to buy a physical copy of this, but alas Square Enix STILL don’t ship anything to Australia. What a joke.
pick_up_bart
Squeenix, how the hell does something relatively niche like Collection of Mana get a wide physical release on Switch, but fucking *Final Fantasy* gets an extremely limited release and drops at like 1am in the US???
Taekwon-D0
I just want 6 tbh
mvanvrancken
Shit yeah, finally I can play 1-12 minus 11 on the same console!
poorbanker
WTF – announced while I was asleep and already sold out/waiting list. Cool
noncompliantandaware
This is such a crock of shit. They dropped this in the middle of the night, and are doing a limited physical edition for *this*?
I collect a fair number of low print video games, the broad majority of them are from small developers where the game would not have otherwise gotten a physical release. It makes sense, because realistically the demand probably isn’t that high.
This is the first six fucking final fantasy games on a single cart. In what universe does it make sense to stealth drop this shit in the middle of the night on a weekend.
Square Enix is so fucking stupid sometimes it hurts.
ManahLevide
I would actually consider buying the physical version if it wasn’t sold out. Guess I’m going to wait for that inevitable 50% discount in a few years.
Wise_Mongoose_3930
Square enix could have sold thousands more copies (based on the amount of people here and on Twitter complaining about it being out of stock)
And instead, they’ve ensured scalpers will be able to triple their money, easy.
Just brain dead decisions from squenix management. No wonder their stock hasn’t gone up in 5 years. Fun games, awful business decisions.
I’m not even buying a digital copy, as I refuse to reward this behavior. I’ll dig out my old cartridges or emulate before rewarding such an anti-consumer (and pro-scalper) move.
SoberingTheFog
All the games in one? Sure, I’ll grab it. Individually priced? No.
defragc
Overpriced, limited run, dropped in the middle of the night, font is still terrible, and these should have been on basically all platforms day 1? Yep, typical Square Enix bullshit.
claud2113
Squeenix can smoke my big fat pole with this pricing and quantity.
Fuck em in the ear.

Everyone should be flooding Square with emails, tweets, whatever because this is just douche behavior.

Oof limited physical run for the standard copy. That sucks.
[unfortunately they haven’t changed the atrocious font](https://twitter.com/wario64/status/1604358081713803264?s=46&t=FGBof5G2OgzzhbtLW4WWfg)
May 31, 2023* Bah, I was hoping sooner.
