"These originally launched in Japan and Europe a few years ago, but US fans were stuck with digital versions on the eShop. While you could import and play the physical versions from other regions thanks to the Switch's region-free hardware, these new US releases will (hopefully) be easier to find when they launch on December 9. Preorders for both games are now live at Amazon for $40 each."
"All three games offer the same core experience as the original PS1 RPGs, but with HD graphics and higher resolution presentation. Final Fantasy VIII Remastered in particular features new character models that are more detailed than the PS1's--though they still resemble the PS1's 3D models' art direction, and use the original animations, so it's not a huge change. All three games also feature optional toggles to turn off random encounters, make your characters invincible, and more."
Final Fantasy VII and Final Fantasy VIII Remastered: Twin Pack and Final Fantasy IX will receive North American physical Switch releases, launching December 9 with Amazon preorders priced at $40 each. These editions preserve the core PS1 RPG experience while adding HD graphics and higher-resolution presentation. Final Fantasy VIII Remastered includes more detailed character models that still resemble the PS1 3D models' art direction and retain the original animations. All three games include optional toggles to disable random encounters, enable character invincibility, and other accessibility options. Physical releases expand near-complete availability of mainline Final Fantasy titles and spinoffs on Switch, complemented by the Final Fantasy I–VI Collection Anniversary Edition currently on sale for $69.
