Shovel Knight is a game that deserves plenty of sales. At present the game is only available to download via the Nintendo eShop but if a Best Buy listing is correct than the critically acclaimed 2D game will be getting a physical release. The US retailer has listed Shovel Knight for Nintendo 3DS, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4, on their website.
Update: Yacht Games confirms physical version of Shovel Knight are under consideration.
Physical release of Shovel Knight would be cool! And we're still looking into that! Any retail details are just a mis-listing at this time.

Well , Konami are stupid . They don’t want more money . I’ll support you anyway ….
Interesting. I don’t really see the point, but, if it gets more sales for that amazing game, I’m all for it!
Good for the company, there are people who will buy the physical version just to have it. I have it on my 3ds, and hell I could eventually buy the hard copy. I haven’t beat it yet, but its very fun and challenging. It’s one of those games you want to dig into hard, but don’t want it to end.
I see what you did at the end there
Now I have to plan to roll my fatass out of bed to get this.
Damn straight sista’.
lmfao. are you related to obinna?
Girl no. I’m BonQuiQui. I’m a fat beautiful women who has a interest in gaming. Want my phone number or something?
Not for Wii U :(
Yeah no physical release for wiiu but hey at least its on the eshop
Nice. I might pick up a copy, just to have.

This is fantastic if true (along with Retro City Rampage getting a physical release). More indie devs/companies need to be doing this with their digital only games, even if its just on a “minor” system like the 3DS or Vita (as is the case for Child of Light) or have a limited print run of them (such as Firefly Diaries and Class of Heroes 2). I personally would never pay actual money for a digital copy of a game, but I will gladly throw my cash around all day if I can get real versions of a game.
Hopefully this (and Retro City) include all of the DLC packs/patches released for the games and they will be day-1 buys for me.
Now I just need physical releases for Sonic 4, Comic Jumper, Bastion, all of Nintendo’s eShop stuff and MegaMan 9,10,XStreetFighter (among others).
Please be true please be true I wants it
Ahhh , Yeah . Where’s the Wii U version ??!!!
