German DVDs with dialect dubbing?

Hello all!

Currently, I'm in Germany and I was perusing the DVD section in my local Müller store when I came across something very interesting: the movie Ted, dubbed in the Bavarian ("boarisch") and Berlinerisch dialects.



It's definitely the first time I've ever seen it, but how common is this?
If/when it happens, what dialects are most common? What about Swiss German?

If you can list some movies that HAVE been dubbed into other dialects, I'd appreciate it.
