Yeah, I was waiting for Plague Road Vita aswell, PayPal also took some extra time. After I was done, Oceanhorn was already oos. I got lucky, I guess.

Word.Vita stays winning tho
Yeah I noticed that too. I went back to Oceanhorn and put in my cart, then swapped back to Prague Road and if was ready to go.
But those few seconds I was "in line" to check out made me nervous. Thankfully all went well.
Yeah the first time I clicked submit on PayPal it went back to LRG without doing anything (PayPal also seemed sluggish in general). Second time that has happened recently. On top of the delay caused by Plague Road not going up on time it was the first time I can remember not getting the order complete between 8am-8:01am. Oceanhorn at 32% by the time I got the order in is also the lowest I remember a game being by the time I placed the order. So wasn't a completely smooth morning but got both so all is well.

Not sure if I didn't notice that before, but ths appeared after I purchased Plague Road:
Yeah don't remember seeing that while waiting for the games to go live. Then when Plague Road wasn't going up on time I noticed it. So not sure it if was always showing that and it only became more apparent by the game not going live on time. Maybe adding that disclaimer is what held up the game going live slightly? Pretty much means these won't see any actual movement for international orders until September so going to be a bit of a wait I guess.

The LRG e-mail (which I thankfully got at 9:50 this time instead of 10:05, lol) listed the date. Not sure about the site.
Well, it's not free, so don't feel too bad.
I kind of missed my tradition of smirking when I got the order confirmation e-mail before the now on sale e-mail. Can't say I ever read the e-mails. The e-mail from yesterday doesn't mention it so seems like a last minute thing they needed to warn of due to the delays they are having with Sony.

Yeah but it saved me so much shipping money that it feels pretty free ^^
Edit : breezed through Mutant Mudds today. I read the game was supposedly difficult but I didn't feel it, except maybe during the space levels (but they were still very doable).
That was a nice bite-sized game overall
Glorious day
- Yonder from SRG arrived
- Dark Souls 1-3 vinyl arrived
- Used my Sundered Kickstarter code, and the game turned out great
- HUGE LRG box arrived!
- I now have trading cards 1, 4, 5, 6, 12
Anyone wants to start dealing on cards? Happy to take 'em off people's hands and pay for shipping of course!

How many games did you have on hold.
I'm not sure if I'm pushing it with 8 games on hold.
None, it was just that I got the Stranger's Wrath vinyl with Bard's Gold + Rive and thus the huge box.
By the way, I know it's a long shot, but I would love if Toki Tori 1 came to the PS4 and got a physical release. Getting Rive is so bittersweet

I'm guessing since he's sending that to Shiz it's a gridder/JRPG? So probably Stranger Revisited?
Though I seem to recall Doug tweeting about a signing a game he's been excited about since he saw it at PSX 2015 recently.
Wonder when we're gonna find out about the second game releasing alongside Ys.

I'd personally loose my shit if he's referring to Drinkbox's games.
He already teased SoSC Revisited before. Could be a VN.

Hmm Oceanhorn sold out after 1 minute.. that sucks.
That now officially ends my LRG PS Vita run, good whilst it lasted. Saves me money from now on though, I can finally fully kick the LRG habit!

Oceanhorn was gone in seconds, Jesus Christ. I didn't know this was the new NES Classic.

Ys is going to be a blood bath isn't it...
I mean seriously I blinked and it was gone.

Fuck Paypal (or whatever caused it), damnit! I added Ocean Horn to my cart, and when i tried to check out with Paypal, it said that i had been inactive for too long time. I logged in like 5 minutes before that. Then i check my Paypal.com tab, nothing wrong there, i could navigate the site fine. Tried to order again, same error. Then i tried to log out of Paypal, placed the order again and i still get the same error! Da fuck is that?
I had to open another browser instead, but then of course, it was already sold out.

I was checking out and by the time I tried to pay, I was told it was sold out. Really? Less than two minutes, to add.That's some BS..
If you decide to pay scalper prices (had to do it one time myself), buying early is better. Prices for Oceanhorn are probably just gonna go up.

Yeah. I might have to skip the LE and go straight to standard Vita to secure a copy in the AM rush.
The standard edition has the advantage (for the consumer) of a readily available Asian English version. But that collector's edition...

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
I missed out on Oceanhorn after basically spamming F5 the whole time. Honestly, I think I'm done with these limited run physical releases.
richard4481
Member
Yep same exact thing happened to me. All my data is saved, so only had to checkout.
After putting me in the 'queue' (from refreshing F5) when I clicked 'complete order' it was gone. I take it 2000 people were in the queue before me... lol
Really sucks as I was really looking forward to grabbing oceanhorn physically for my vita.. think I'm done with this Unfortunately..more money to support my other habits I guess.

Should I feel bad now for buying this even though I'm not a full collector?
Nah
I got lucky.
Tried logging into Paypal a couple mins before they went live, but it was giving me a weird error and not allowing me to sign in to Paypal.
No time to troubleshoot so I used Amazon Checkout for the first time and quickly made the order. Got both Vita games.

Play-Asia route is the best IMO
It honestly feels like this was a release where demand was just greatly underestimated. Sucks when it happens. I have to admit feeling guilty about buying for both platforms now.
Yeah, but look at the sales. In spite of small prints I believe that Ghost Blade HD and Cursed Castilla EX are the only ones sold out and some have been up for months.

Yikes... confidence in obtaining next week's release is pretty low after Oceanhorn's popularity.
PayPal issues are BS. It seems like there is a new issue, requirement, or request every time I log in to their site. I wasn't allowed to update my shipping information through them because my CC information was "out of date". WTF is that? I have money in my account? Let me change my address.

I'm interested in hearing more about this. Do you just make sure you have a valid CC on file and run the transaction via signing in like PayPal?
Yeah, Oceanhorn definitely.
Plague Road surprised me, but maybe the extra low run of non-KS copies had to do with that.
