The download sizes on the eShop refer to the full size of the digital version of the given game, so that every potential customer can judge if they have enough free space on their console and how much more they'd need if they don't have enough free space (plus customers get blocked from purchase if there's not enough free space on the console). The file size on the eShop constitutes the upper limit of what can be on a game card, but doesn't indicate if everything is on the game card. Since we know that an 8 GB card costs a publisher as much as a Blu-ray, that it's not Capcom who is publishing this game and that the publisher of this specific game has put the complete Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy on an 8GB card last year, it's 99.9% certain that Crash Team Racing will ship as full game on card. The remaining 0.1% are only there to put your paranoia in motion. |
Good to know. Hopefully it's all on the card. I'm considering picking it up for my little brother, we have it on PS1 but both the disc and the system are somewhat less than reliable nowadays, both being 20 years old.
It's always refreshing when a third party game doesn't pull the 'download the other half of the game to play' BS.
Of course, there's also the question of how it will look/run on Switch being a down-port from PS4, but as a cartoon Kart racer with roots in the 5th gen you'd have to be a special kind of incompetent to fuck that up.
