Heads up: if you missed the Special Reserve edition of Shadow Warrior 2, they've put their leftovers on sale. They're also no longer doing pre-orders, which also means that they won't be accepting new orders for the PS4 version of Absolver until Oct 25th. This will also mean that Ruiner won't be available until they have discs on hand.

They also confirmed that "legacy titles" will also be made available in the future, so there's hope for physical Hotline Miami 2 yet.

Thanks for the heads-up! Glad to finally pick up a copy of SW combo without resorting to ebay.

Josh is teasing some “big announcements” for tomorrow.

Anyone want to do predictions? I’m thinking Switch announcement and La Mulana EX reveal.

My guess is Stranger of Sword City Revisited is finally ready to go. Maybe they've finally decided to make their first localized game known, and it's actually Hero Must Die.

the impossible happened and we're getting The Caligula Effect :p

*levity*

Hey thanks for the heads up, the only reason I missed out on Shadow Warrior 2 is because they didn't ship to Australia, but now it seems they do! Glad I double checked. Though $39.99 for the game and $23.05 for postage haha. Still beats ebay!

After all their teases and the accidental ICEY Switch reveal, it's likely going to be the official announcement that they are now Switch publishers. They are going to re-confirm ICEY and probably a few more upcoming Switch releases.

I just hope they announce Wonder Boy so I don't have to get the Asian Switch release and I can have an LRG Switch copy to match my LRG PS4 one.

Bought, disappointed though. Was expecting something newer.

It's not newer but great it is \o/

Also it's a good sign for when La Mulana 2 will finally be released.

I hope it's not one of these releases where I'm among the few who are really excited (the last of the sort being Stealth Inc)

I feel the game's a tad overrated. But I definitely welcome it getting a physical Vita release, and really hope it does well too. Hoping LRG has a sufficient number of copies printed as well.

Am I the only one that grows weary of announcements when there is a significant existing backlog of announced stuff that hasn't been released? It seems that LRG has two brands of announcements, games that will release almost immediately and games that will release when Christ comes back.

A lot of the previous games that were announced were delayed for various reasons or were not quite ready but the developer/publisher wanted to go ahead and drive interest.

Hey, glad to see you guys finally getting approved for Switch releases. Is Icey going to be your first game, the dev tweeted the boxart for both a PS4 and Switch version. Also hints about games you plan to bring to Switch physically?

Hmm. La Mulana is very much in my "maybe" pile. I wouldn't want to miss out on it, so I'll probably just get it I guess.

Have you played it before? Very challenging, but also a very good game. Will probably be one of the more definitive LRG releases (assuming playasia doesn’t also release it).

Really pumped for Switch releases. My #1 is Blaster Master Zero, not only because it’s a good game, but because it’s a very nostalgic series for me.

In for La Mulana, will have to take a look at Nex Machina and Crawl.

It's 100% worth your time if you enjoy really tough metroidvanias. Be warned you will likely need a guide though due to the complexity of the maps and puzzles. Luckily there are really great ones out there that helped me through my playthrough last year.

Speaking of guides, I would love to see LRG commission someone to make some for their games [especially ones that share a complexity to LaMulana]. Would be a great incentive to the FAQ community to publish some truly great walkthroughs! [And hell I may even jump on to make some if that were the case. I do enjoy writing after all!] ;)

I hope the Switch game prices are comparable to the markup on the PS4 and Vita games. We don't need a Switch tax.

Yeah, I'm really curious as to how this will be handled. At some point I heard an 8GB Switch card is comparable in price to a Vita card, but prices shoot up dramatically at 16 and 32GB. No way to verify that information.

Luckily, a lot of these games won't need more than a 1GB or 2GB card... Blaster Master Zero, Kamiko, and Golf Story are all under 1GB. I expect pricing to be in line with Nicalis titles, or around $30.
