Bethesda’s surprise announcement that The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered is heading to Nintendo’s next-gen platform on August 11 has triggered a pre-order frenzy.
Because modern physical game releases are increasingly rare—often replaced by “code-in-a-box” retail releases—Bethesda’s decision to press the entire massive, remastered RPG onto a high-capacity physical cartridge has made it an instant collector’s item. Standard and Collector’s Edition preorders went live early this morning and sold out at major global retailers within hours, proving that physical media still holds incredible sway among RPG fans.
