This isn't going to be everyone's cup of tea, but Play-Asia is currently offering some Japanese Nintendo Switch preorders at a lower price. These will play in English and the only time you'll have trouble is if there is DLC. I'm mainly looking at the 1st party Nintendo games as they don't often get expansive DLC offerings. Super Mario RPG and Super Mario Wonder are $43 each, but stick in Pikmin 1+2 for $32 or Warioware: Move It! for $36 or any other game $20+ and you'll qualify to get free shipping. Close to a buy 2, get 1 free deal for those interested.
Keep in mind that Play Asia will hold your entire order and will only ship it when everything in your order has been released. So if you ordered, for example, Pikman 4 (which releases in a few weeks) on the same order as Wario Ware (releases November 23) then you won't get Pikman until November when Wario Ware releases.
Their free economy shipping is pretty slow - I'm on the west coast and it takes about 2 weeks as the packages get shipped from Hong Kong.
If you're patient, or have other already released games you want from them, this could be a good deal. Otherwise, that copy of Pikman 4 you're waiting on so that it could be bundled with other games to get free shipping will definitely be cheaper during Black Friday.
For most first-party games even DLC won't be a problem, as Nintendo typically releases the same version worldwide. The only notable exception is Splatoon 2, which had regional releases.
The only real downside is the box design, that's it. Great deal!
I think I'll just stick to doing the usual hand n mouth stuff for a half off discount @ Target

Would it ship on release date or be received by release date?
It depends on how you order. They ship only when all items in order are ready to ship. If you use economy shipping it will take a while. I've used play asia a lot and you will not get it close to release unless you pay for expedite shipping

They really do that for pre-orders? So if I ordered all of the games in the OP (except WarioWare) in one order, I'd have to wait until November (When Star Ocean releases) before getting a single item from my order?

Yes, a lot of places do that with pre orders. You can split your order but you need a certain amount for free shipping as well.
