Game releases on June 5th, 2026 which I tried to put in the entry twice, both times this got rejected with note "   Incorrect Information. Based on your edit submissions, this item released in May.."

In May I  was able to put pictures of box and add other info to the entry because the Preorders from THQ Nordic Store got sent out before the actual release date, the game has a release date of June 5th.

You've just reiterated my own comments I supplied when rejecting your edit submissions: the items in question are now available to consumers earlier than the advertised release date. For our site's purposes, that is all that matters as the advertising date is merely trivia now. There is little likelihood we would be able to confirm when a specific day the item first became available, so data for Month and Year fields only is fine.

I think this is the right place to put this. This needs to have variant info added in the title and a new entry needs to be added.

I recently had this YouTube short appear on my YouTube homepage, then I looked up something along the lines of "Lego Star Wars II DS patch" and then came across this video. The tl;dw version is the game was a broken mess on launch, then it got a silent re-release patched version sometime later. The only way to identify it is the back of the physical cartridge, the original version is AL7EN0J12, and the fixed version is AL7EN1J12. So this is kind of like the situation with Spyro Reignited Trilogy where the only way to identify copies with all the games on the disc is the disc art of the actual disc.

It might be worth looking into the other region releases of the game as they have may done the same thing according to this post on the Lost Media Wiki forums.

A new forum topic would have been more ideal, but that's fine.

To clarify, there are more serials for The Lego Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy's cartridges than just AL7EN0J12 and AL7EN1J12. I've come across several others on eBay including those ending in -09, -20, -22, -34, but those ending numbers relate to manufacturing sequence only and not software content.

Now, while a variant entry for this updated cartridge could be created, there are other steps needing to be taken prior to that. Information from boxed copies will need to be gathered from sources like sealed unboxing videos and by observing trends from secondary markets. First, the outer packaging will need to be inspected and compared to see if some kind of difference exists there. And if it's concluded that the packaging is the exact same, then the various other components need to be compared as well which consist of the Instruction Booklet and Health and Safety Precautions Booklet, each with their own unique item numbers. Once those steps are completed and no other differences besides the cartridge serials can be found, then a variant entry can be submitted with an entry name descriptor relating to the cartridge serial. Since the serials aren't fully the same, it is best for a descriptor to relate to something more objective.

I won't be doing that research, so you will need to do it yourself if you're wanting a variant entry created. If you need help along the way, you can provide sources in a dedicated forum topic and staff will provide feedback.
