Overview
- Major retailers in the U.S., U.K., Japan, Australia, and elsewhere report the physical Game Key Card version is unavailable or sold through initial allotments.
- Amazon’s marketplace listing for the physical edition rose to $80, while the digital version remains priced at $70 on the Nintendo eShop and Amazon.
- Walmart Canada said it sold through its first shipment and has placed orders for a second wave of stock.
- Pokopia launched last week as the first Switch 2‑exclusive Pokémon title and the first first‑party release to use Nintendo’s Game Key Card format.
- The Game Business editor Christopher Dring said U.K. retail was "seriously undersupplied" and reported launch physical sales below last year’s Legends: Z‑A, with official figures expected later this week.
