I know Night Trap and Fallen Legion both had no date (I don't count "spring 2017) and no price. Same with Vita Darius Burst.

Very cool that those are coming, and I understand the business is such that they can't nail down a date right away, but I'd almost rather hear about them later when they have solid info.

Fallen Legion was announced long ago and Dariusburst Vita is out late June, there's a set date announced.

I want both that and Phantom Breaker... I had the 360 LE of the fighting game pre-ordered before the localizer picked up the money and ran away :( This is my only chance to own a PB title physically. (Still sad about that LE and not even 5pb. even knew what happened!)

Need dat Beat em Up

I have held off from buying both the Vita and PS4, and they contonue to sit in my wishlist (along with the DLC).

My most wanted LRG titles (that are actually plausible):
-House in Fata Morgana
-Atelier Plus (all)
-Phantom Breaker PS4 and Vita

Darius Burst had a release date. I think it was June 23!?

I thought that Fallen Legion only had a release date for the digital release on PSN. Have LRG confirmed when their release will be as well?

Fallen Legion had a LRG run announced months ago, before the digital release date was announced. So far, only the digital release has a confirmed date.

At this point I need like a spreadsheet or something to keep up with all of the games that have been announced / teased / scheduled.

Grabbed a PS4 copy and the PS4 + PC + Vinyl Set of Shadow Warrior 2! :D
I had no clue it was going up tonight....lucky I decided to check my e-mail before bed! :)

Same, but I should make a spreadsheet for everything I want to buy on a month to month basis tbh. Help me do the maths, prioritize and make sure I set aside $ as needed.

Seems to be available again but they are not shipping to germany... damn

Was it confirmed that there will be a batch available via LRG?

Yeah LRG are supposedly doing small batches of all SRG titles.
The question for me is, grab this now while I can OR try my luck with a LRG version... I wonder which cover art will be better haha

EDIT:
PLEASE NOTE: at this time, we are unable to ship this reserve to the country you are visiting us from.

I guess that settles it.
Limited Run Games save me!

Thanks! Hopefully they will ship it to germany.

LRG ship pretty much everywhere, 99% sure Germany included. Special Reserve can't ship to me it seems, in Australia, and like everywhere I've ever bought form can bar the Square Enix online store. Should be fine for you. Definitely don't want to miss it, I adored the first Shadow Warrior

I think SRG doesn't ship SW2 because of rating restrictions to germany and australia even though I don't know why they care. So far every game from LRG was shipped to germany but as far as I remember there has not been any "too violent for germany" game yet.

They did it with Strafe but I don't remember reading it would be a systematic thing.

Anyway, thanks for reminding me the game was live ! :D

Hmm well that's bullshit because SW2 is coming out in Australia digitally anyway.

I might try email LRG and ask if they are going to carry it since the post above said it may not be every game.

Pretty nice guy (apart from the blue shadows thing...)

Hype maximum. This partnership is exciting.

Finally, I might be able to play Broken Age, Grim Fandango, Day of the Tentacle and Full Throttle on my JP region Vita.

I'm not making any guarantees here on the LucasArts titles, mind you, this is all wishful thinking. We *REALLY* want to release them physically. I honestly think that will be a much easier thing to do if Broken Age is a complete success.

I love you, LRG.

The House in Fata Morgana, me too!

Me ninth!

Oh man, I just realized I never received Dear Esther :/. LRG shipments always take super long to arrive so I never really pay attention to the tracking page and just wait for the day it arrives at my doorstep, so I didn't realize until now.

Tracking info was last updated on April 12, "En route to destination country". Uhh yes... that sounds lost to me :/

Time to contact LRG I guess, hopefully they still have extra copies :(.

Happen to me, but my package was lost, and they had no copies in spare, i wish you the best luck to you.

Oh god no, please no....

Dear Esther is my favorite release by them so far, I love that game so so so much and I was so thrilled when LRG announced it.

Damn why didn't I realize sooner... I hope they still have some spare copies ;_;. Sorry about your lost order too, it really sucks doesn't it :(. I've never had this happen before either and I've been ordering things online for more than 10 years :/.

I feel you. It was also the first thing I've ever ordered from LRG. Why of all things does Dear Esther have to get lost in such quantities lol

I don't think I'll get a replacement, so I've simply bought one from ebay for 50€. Just 10€ more. Meh. Not that bad.

At this point LRG needs a page on their website that plainly lists their slate of upcoming games and announced release dates. It's ridiculous that you have to track this shit on Twitter when they have this much going on.

Weird... they are back in stock. Maybe I loaded their page early last night and they just had everything set to SOLD OUT. In either case, I got my copy!

Crazy, I just realized they are a local company in Dallas, TX.

Same never had any lost package before, and it was also one of the game i was waiting the most, and it became one of top 5 most expensive LGR release... And it broke my full set, but at same time, it wake me up decide to buy only game that really interest me. It was a great wake up call.

A stream of consciousness from Josh here, but the pertinent bits:

More and more people keep jumping into the limited print game publishing arena. Just heard of a new one today.

We're also going to start signing less games so we can mitigate the saturation.

Lots were signed last year and the prior year so those need to come out but expect stuff to slow down in 2018 on the PlayStation front.

Yep yep. I hate eschewing the small releases as I love helping little guys, but we need to shift focus to bigger stuff.

About LRG's competitors:

Signature Edition, eastasiasoft (via Play-Asia), Special Reserve Games, iam8bit, and Strictly Limited Games

There's a sixth and seventh but they can announce themselves. It's not my place to do it when they haven't announced plans themselves.

On differentiating themselves from competitors:

We need some new and exciting stuff that no one else is thinking about or doing and I've got tons of ideas.

On localizations:

That's a goal for late-2017 or early-2018 - localizations and digital publishing.

We'd love suggestions! House of Fata Morgana is totally on the radar but more suggestions would be 👌
 
I'm not sure how I feel about this. LRG are basically the original limited release (aside from RCR that I can see), and although I understand why he's saying he doesnt' want to saturate the market (which would basically destroy their business model), it's sad to see them backing down somewhat and conceding to competitors. Sign every game you can! Personally, if I want it, I'll find the money for it.

Nice to hear they're opening up towards localizations though. With the strong niche available on Vita who are more than aware of who LRG are, it should be a profitable avenue for them.

doesn't seem that expensive compared to what you'd be paying with LRG i also like how one of these sellers somehow has more than 10 copies available to sell when they shouldn't have more than 2

I can forgive them for things that get mentioned before they were expecting to announce them, but as far as the confirmed stuff, yeah, they really need to be better about updating their site.

Im all for Kickstarters and indie games having releases on Vita...but I could never get past Plague Roads art style since it makes my eyes bleed and burn.

I'll get it, and it will probably be a really good and fun game.....but that art style is literally burning at my corneas.

Not convinced either ^^
I'll think twice before purchasing this one.
