How many physical game releases have their been though?  I assume less than 10.  That is a pretty low number but it should be 20+ by the holiday season or so.

Not sure why physical release is the barometer for games, but going from the Nintendo website, we have,

BotW, Bomberman, 1-2 Switch, Binding of Issac, Just Dance, Lego City Undercover, Puyo Puyo Tetris, and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. 

So that makes 8. All but Bomberman and 1-2 are pretty much universally well regarded. 

Indie games are good and sometimes way better than what some major developers put out but I don't give a shit about how many digital titles there are sometimes.  Sometimes for me physical is all that matters.  The reason being is you can find most indie titles on Xbox, PS, and Nintendo eshops.  I still prefer having a cart or disc.
