Hey, your link for Grisaia Trilogy on your google document appears to lead to a different game called "Labyrinth of Refrain: Coven of Dusk."

Always with the long form videos! I've crunched the numbers and at this rate Jordan will BECOME the internet around "2045 or so... Like the end of Akira
I only buy Japanese import physical games as I’m learning the Japanese language through playing video games. This video I know took a while to make and a lot of work went into it. Much appreciated!
Bass fishing is popular in America professionally and for sport. They've been planted in Japan as well where there are quite a few sport fisherman who go after them. I'd imagine they have a professional tournaments there as well too.
@@PhysicalParadise they fight pretty hard and jump out of the water quite a bit, plus they are very widespread. I'm pretty sure you can catch them in almost every state of the US.
Thanks for keeping us all informed Jordan! It seems absurd to me that we didn't get a western physical for Legend of Mana. While quite different from the SNES games I still think it is one of the better games in the series, even if it isn't a mainline game. I'm sure there's plenty more on the list that give me the WTFs but I saw that one in the intro and had to comment!
What a massive video, Jordan! Thanks for all the work I know you've put into this! Just have to say, I love every time we get a call back to Murder By Numbers. I really enjoy that game and I'm so glad I got that one back in the day. I also giggle every time we get to "My Girlfriend is a Mermaid?!?" I have switched over to buying most of my games on Steam at this point, partially for financial reasons, partially for convenience, and (in certain instances) partially due to concerns over performance on the Switch. I'm narrowing down my Switch collection but still keeping a LOT of them... Like, you can pry my Final Fantasy Switch collection from my cold dead hands, LOL. I also really prefer my VNs on Switch vs Steamdeck. Every time I watch one of these videos, I could write a huge list of games to add to my collection if I won the lottery. Even though I have a huge digital game collection on Steam, I really prefer physical game copies and probably always will.
Thank you for making this. I ended up adding about 20 games to my pick up list. I know the world often gets split into East and West but if there any chance there will be a video like this for European games without American releases and vise versa?
@@PhysicalParadise Awesome. I'll go watch those. I didn't get my Switch til after the last of those videos dropped but I've certainly made up for lost time since. I'm in the process of bulking out my search list since it got shorter than my trade pile. Thanks again for all the videos. ^_^
I just finished going through them. Beyond the ones which have since gotten a North American release I already snagged One Piece Red, Naruto 4, FF7+8, Goat Simulator, Tales of the Tiny Planet, and 6-8 others... just casually. Still 8 more added to the list. Thanks again.
great great video and fantastic excel file thank you!!! PS. fatal frame: one as u say has English as download and the other has English on the cartridge - the Japanese version too has English.
1:55:29 Erm Actkshually Samurai Jack was a US cartoon that was on Cartoon Network with the last season being exclusive to Adult Swim 🤓 But aside that thanks for this video cause I've been wanting to add more physical Switch games that aren't available on the usual so I'll compile a list and see what fits to my taste and bill
While I love revisiting all these titles, many of them are no longer available from Play Asia! I removed sold out- bridge curse 1, Idol Manager, Akai Ito & Aoi Shiro, Blair Witch, Blaster Master Trilogy, get me out plz from my wish list.. Great compilation though!
@@PhysicalParadise interesting, can you provide source or at least which publisher it is? For now it is still Japan only, like many other releases you mention
33:46 Capcom & the Delevopers of DMC are Sony Pony lovers for life. It definitely shows they are dead set to make sure Nin never gets anything physical all the way from the PS2 era but turn around & the games they put on any Nin system in the past they immediately make them available physical for Sony systems 😂.
Take a shot everytime Jordan says schlocky! 😂😂 In all seriousness, it's annual event when Jordan releases this video. It's amazing how many great imports the Switch has. My first was the Dragon Quest trilogy and I haven't looked back since then. I'm glad I was able to help with some of the Korean releases. We have such an unique and underrated market here. My biggest brag is getting Alliance Alive for around $8. Now if I can only find Mistover and Buried Stars for cheap! 😂😂😂 Look forward to the next one Bossman 🫡

Thank you!
Impressive video. Congrats on getting all these imports compiled together.
Love that spreadsheet. Never thought I would utter those words.
Awesome video! Made a few purchases after watching!
Ah nice, this will be great to fall asleep to 😊
Great video Jordan! The spreadsheet was the cherry on top!
Phenomenal Roundup, Jordan. Kudos!!
Always with the long form videos!

Like the end of Akira
Thanks for this amazing collection! You totally helped focus my game hunting during a recent Japan visit! 😅
I waited for this bro, great job 👏
Love your videos. I have many of these, some I forgot I own and should play haha. ♡ Thanks for your time in these videos!
This video is ridiculous in the best possible way. One of the most useful videos ever, thanks so much for all the effort that went into this.
Happy to help!

It will take a few days to get through all this for notes but super helpful reference 🙏
Thanks for the list Jordan! You deserve more subscribers.
Thank you very much for this video! So much information ℹ️
My pleasure!
THIS IS GOLD!! Thank you so much for it, Jordan
You're welcome!
WHAT A VIDEO DUDE! Kudos to you!
Every time a watch a video Jordan narrates, I’m always laughing 😂
It's impressive that you still do these annual Nintendo Switch import compilations. The list only gets longer with time. 😂
WHAT A WORK!!! Thank you!!!
You're welcome!
Thanks for the doc! Fantastic content, very well done. 👍❤️😊
Thanks for keeping us all informed Jordan!

For me Legend is the best in the series 😅
Nice video cool to have an update on what switch games are English or not
Forever Limited sent out Front Mission 2 a while back. Still haven’t removed the shrink wrap from mine yet.
Gran trabajo, saludos desde México 🇲🇽

I know the world often gets split into East and West but if there any chance there will be a video like this for European games without American releases and vise versa?
I've made a few in the past on SwitchWatch, but there was little interest in them. Maybe I can do a massive one when the Switch is over.

River City: Rival Showdown was Play-Asia's last one atm, not Startup Company ^^
Well.... that was just a collector's edition they helped with. I don't think they published the game themselves.
I ordered Front Mission 2 from Forever Limited and got it a little while later
So helpful thank you
Absolute madlad content!
Great video I watched it all to buy some Japanese exclusive games 😌
Very useful video thanks
No problem!
Just finished up the video and now I have more that needs to join the backlog. Thanks? 💰 😢
Great content. Keep it coming!
What a marathon, thanks for doing this 👍
Which are the top three import exclusives according to your statistics?
Final Fantasy Pixel Remaster (although that's getting a western retail release soon)
Chrono Cross
Final Fantasy IX
I ordered Anno.
About Osman, in Playasia it says 1 week but it's been a while since the stock has been supplied 😢
great great video and fantastic excel file thank you!!!
PS. fatal frame: one as u say has English as download and the other has English on the cartridge - the Japanese version too has English.
1:55:29 Erm Actkshually Samurai Jack was a US cartoon that was on Cartoon Network with the last season being exclusive to Adult Swim 🤓
But aside that thanks for this video cause I've been wanting to add more physical Switch games that aren't available on the usual so I'll compile a list and see what fits to my taste and bill
Looks like RXN Raijin will be getting a limited re-release @ Play-Asia on 08/30/24 👀
Do you just normally import your games through eBay or something like eBay?
Thanks for the vid!
No problem!
Do you have a video like this but for PS4 available as well?
🤣
The Canadian part is funny because it’s true.
Shanghai Legends for sure has English. But I am not sure for Shanghai Refresh. I think it does not have English. Can anybody confirm?
Japanese eShop says it does: store-jp.nintendo.com/item/software/D70010000011467
Can you do the same for PS4 and PS5?
Maybe PS5 is doable but I fear I'm too late to the boat with PS4
1:14:48 wait how is the LRGs have the uncensored art when it's edited? Playasia is the one that has the uncensored one.
HIYAH! Sly is very aware that you have a massive talent for this. Blimey this is good.
Anyone know if Ruiner has English?
If only there was the same for PS4/5
While I love revisiting all these titles, many of them are no longer available from Play Asia! I removed sold out- bridge curse 1, Idol Manager, Akai Ito & Aoi Shiro, Blair Witch, Blaster Master Trilogy, get me out plz from my wish list.. Great compilation though!
I think you are missing Snufkin, a Japan only import with English.
Nah it's getting a European retail release.

No, wallet, you're not allowed to watch this video. You're not old enough.
