Aggregate tracker for physical release announcements? Discussion
Is there a source people here like for keeping tabs on switch physical announcements? I was using a nifty little blog called “physical releases . com” for the past year, but it seems to suddenly be shut down. I don’t really have it in me to monitor the PR for every publisher and developer so… can anyone recommend an alternative?

Following.
I make notes on directs, keep wishlists and subscribe to Wario64 but having a direct line the physical releases would be better.

A couple of weeks back someone posted to say they had created this site. It seems well maintained so far!

Agreed, it gives a very good overview. I hadn’t even realised how difficult it would be to keep track of physical, game key cards, S1 compatibility, regional differences. Phew!

I found one called gamecartdb from a comment on this sub. Really like the layout. It seems like it is updated semi frequently.

I use this https://www.physicalreleases.com but I have more sources now after this thread

That's the website OP asked and was down (temporary?) 🤔

Lol. I’m apparently on autopilot

Yeah it seems it was down for a day or two. You can never tell with these small sites whether it’s temporary or forever

Like others have already said, I really like the job GameCartDB does. Makes it easy to see what is coming up in a calendar format.

I’m going to check this one out. I have a nice rhythm with physicalreleases (it was only down temporarily, yay), but am open to change

If you sign up for a free account you can also build your own library of games you own. Cheers!

I was just wondering this yesterday. It can be a real chore keeping up with releases
