    Depends if you count Pokopia. But Pokemon is in that weird “sort of a Nintendo IP, sort of not” state.

    Nintendo was not the publisher of Pokopia in Japan, and Gamefreak is an indie developer. But Nintendo did publish Pokopia worldwide and still chose not to put the game on cart, so not sure where the decision for that rests.

      @[email protected] said “before the Switch 2 release”. And while I don’t like Game Key Cards, they are just barely above code-in-box because you can still trade/resell them.
