Ain't there technically 5 games, not just 4? I know Bayonetta 2+1 is a bundle in retail, but if later there will be separate versions for both games in retail, how are you going to handle it?

I hope it won't happen ;)

Edit : Seriously, I'll change Bayonetta 2+1 to Bayonetta 2 if that happens. I think it is unlikely at this point that we get a different retail release for those two games on Switch in the future though.

They are available separately on the eshop, where if you buy one yoi have the OPTION to get the other at a discounted price to match the retail release of both games.  Seeing how they have that set up, and how it could never translate to a physical release well, I will 99.99999% guarantee you Bayo 1 will never see a separate physical release on Switch.
