Below is a list of "physical" games I could find on pre-order in Australia from a physical walk in shop.
I made the list to hopefully help others who are physical game collectors like me and shun the poor practices of some developers cutting costs to release sub standard physical games
Please feel free to add anything I missed and I will update the OP post.
So far there is 6 games I won't be buying, and perhaps go a step further and not even support those developers on any platform.

Why did you put "physical" in scare quotes? This implies the opposite meaning - no physical games.
Also, Game-Key Card contain no game data on the card, only the license to download. There are no Game-Key Card with plenty and even dozen of GB on them.
Game-Key Cards are not physical games, so they shouldn't be on this list. The same with Code-in-the -box games.
Physical games only mean those cartridges that have the entire game on them, meaning that are not depended on download to run.
OP wrongly understood the subject.
