No English text tho :/
So I check underneath my night stand one afternoon, doing my usual Sunday cleaning. Lo and behold, buried underneath all the junk are two unopened copies of Breach and Clear #1, as fresh as the day I bought them. I checked online. Looks like they're about worth $250 each! A 10x return on when I got them. I probably don't ever plan on selling since it's cool to have something so rare, but it's great to see limited run still kicking after all this time. I should take pictures when I get home.
It's a pretty import-friendly game. I need to go back and boot up my copy, but I don't recall seeing much Japanese.

Yeah, it's very playable in Japanese. No reason not to import it, unless you care about the DLC.

Saw this and just wanted to chime in that Fangamer is not a publisher, they are a distributor. Yacht Club Games and Vblank both published their own games and just did fulfillment with Fangamer.

Sorry, lttp. Is there any word of Dragon's Trap being released by LRG? I would much prefer that over Play-Asia if it happens. Game looks awesome

It has two Silver Hawk spaceship figures in it too so it isn't just the special box, game, and soundtrack. The only thing the Japanese version has that ours doesn't is one extra Silver Hawk.

So it's basically the developers risking their livelihoods for their own games.
Anyway, my point was that it's well established by now, not in the least by you guys, that a pre-order system doesn't work if you want to sell through thousands of physical copies quickly. So either you have to be willing (and be able to financially) to take that risk of sitting on a lot of copies for at least a while, or else you have to tackle it the way you do it. So you can't just compare the relative success or failure of people working with a pre-order system for their game with LRG's success.

Ya if this is for Ys then there's a reason why you haven't gotten it yet, neither the Vita or PS4 physicals will be released till May, likely at the same time the game releases on Vita (May 30th). I honestly hope that isn't the reason why you've been hounding them since then.

So we've also got the Cursed Castella EX physical release happening tomorrow. Any of you guys gonna be jumping on that? I know I definitely will.
The more companies that produce physical releases the better for all of us. Makes us, the gamers happy, and these upstarts also need competition and better for developers on the receiving end.
And as long we keep supporting them then physical will never go away.

i am, on side notice i was really impressed with Play-Asia packaging of Blue-Rider for the PS4 ....very dope
Fingers crossed that FantaBlade and Enigami get back to LRG for releases of ICEY and Shiness!
The fact that ICEY is virtually unknown to the vast majority of Western PS4 owners despite having an excellent English localization is particularly sad. It's legitimately greatprobably the single best Chinese-developed game I've ever played. How interesting it would be if LRG succeeded in a packaged version license before it releases on the NA or EU PS Store.

Oh I concur fully, the extra stickers thrown in (along with a 5 dollar off voucher) were just icing on the cake. The quality of the product along with the mere $29.99 asking price means the value for money was fantastic, highly recommended if anyone here hasn't picked one up yet.

What are some good coupon codes that can be used with the playasia order tomorrow? Is there a way to get free shipping? Got a few other games I've been waiting on buying too.
Edit: asked in wrong thread, my bad.

But LRG should be releasing here domestically. :/
Peel off that band-aid. Welcome to freedom.

No it wasn't for Ys, it was for Digimon. Not sure why your calling it "hounding."
I still have my complete Vita LRG set... Except that four of them are with LRG for now, waiting to be produced or shipping.

Got my order in. Looks like a fun little action platformer.
Don't forget to use promo code MYPSVITA to get $3 off.
It is, but the confirm and back buttons are reversed. The main select screen is all Japanese and the burnt-in title cards with the specs of the bosses of the arcade are all Japanese. Were these translated in the NA PsN version?
Against better judgment I am serious considering this version even though it would the fifth time buying this game. Have not been able to try my Steam version as I don't have a PC.

Shame we'll probably never see a 'complete' edition of Darius with the DLC included. European Vita fans are still screwed even if LRG does a print.

Yeah that's a shame indeed. I don't feel like buying the DLC at all unless it's part of a complete edition. I just try to pretend that it doesn't exist. ;-)

Not that I care for the LE, but if you know them, can you explain how do the Silver Hawks compare to the figures from the Shooting Historica line I already own? They seem exactly the same tbh, except from the Yellow One.

Digimon is out of print, you're not gonna get it.

It's been reprinted numerous times and got a reprint very recently.
Long story short :
Bougth the Triple OddWorld pack, 2 month later, revceive a message that tell me yeah sorry we can't have the blue variant because a lost shipment or something like this and we are short supply on these game. So we give you the choice to choose one variant + any other previous LGR release games. Nice found someone who want to exchange the blue variant for "the" another LGR game (the only title that was missing in his collection, sorry JHD). So shipping confirmation happen... the tracking never move, like the print label was print, but nothing was sent. 30 days later wrote a ticket, check if it was really sent... 60 later nothing so i got a refund and got a reason that we don't have any of these game anymore.....
This is where i get really mad. I'm having a hard time to believe that they don't keep a couple of spare copy when those thing happen. I bought every single release so far, always there to buy at first batch... and because of that i'll have to pay triple the price for each title, these 2 releases are not on cheap side.
So in the end....i got nothing.... got hold for nearly 200 canadien dollars for 4 month....Having a hard to digest this.... i don't know what i'm going to do this friday...

They had it in stock in Dec when I ordered it and sent a copy already. The issue is them not considering the package lost. When your estimated shipping is 6 weeks it shouldn't take over 4 months for you to consider a package lost.
Keep messaging them, it's definitely lost at this point.

Goddamn it, I missed this!
Say whatever you want about LRG, but at least I get quite a few warnings before their stuff goes live. Here, I didn't even know this game was getting a physical release until I checked this thread.
Still shows as available to me: http://www.play-asia.com/cursed-castilla-ex-maldita-castilla-ex-play-asiacom-exclusive/13/70b3h7
Log in and it might still be available, but as of last night they were already below 1000 copies.
LRG -- is the Darius vinyl also going up a couple of minutes early with Nova?
Yeah, you have to login- it showed as unavailable this morning, but after I logged on it let me pre-order.

That might be because you guys signed up as "interested" according to this page on Play Asia. I didn't because I wasn't even aware this was a thing.
Tried to log out, login again, other browser, nothing. Unless one of you fellows who can still preorder it would be helpful enough to put up an order for me (which I would Paypal you for ASAP) I'll be out of options other than scalpers.

Subscribe to their mailing list? Or perhaps follow them on twitter. They sent out emails giving buyers plenty of time to prepare. Not sure how this is any different from what LRL does.

Nah. I actually own this game on Steam and even follow the development team there. There was no announcement where I could find. As a contrast, LRG releases like Oddworld or Darius have been getting a lot of people talking outside places where that sort of talk would be usually contained (like this thread).
Welp, I guess it's fine I missed it. Would have liked to own it but not enough to pay a scalper. One thing I realized though: Play-Asia must be giving out a bigger cut of revenue to eastasiasoft than what LRG did. It's not even about the number of print copies available (Blue Rider was 2500, this one's 3000), which I think was a point of contention for the Soldner X2 (re)release. Conjecture, of course, but I imagine I'm not entirely off the mark.
