For Nintendo Switch enthusiasts, the game was initially released as a digital title on the Nintendo eShop. However, some players sought out alternative ways to obtain the game, such as through NSP files, which are package files used by the Nintendo Switch to distribute and install games. NSP files can be created from game cartridges or downloaded from the eShop.

Repacks, on the other hand, refer to re-packaged versions of games, often created by third-party groups, which can include updates, DLCs (downloadable content), and other modifications. These repacks can be particularly appealing to players who want to experience the game with additional content or fixes without having to download multiple files.

The NSP repack of Untitled Goose Game often includes the base game, updates (like version 1.2.2), and sometimes even DLCs. These repacks aim to provide a comprehensive gaming experience, often with a single installation file.
