I didn't see it mentioned here, but are people aware that DD have started selling represses of both SoR and SoR2? If not, consider yourselves informed
Into my veeeiiinnnnsssss
Awesome. I'm still waiting for the Outrun and Super Hang On represses and I'll have the entire collection.
Don't know, I have the original run. I wouldn't expect it, though.

I'm not sure they'll do SHO unless there's a lot of demand. Can't find the source now but I swear I read an interview that said it was by far their lowest-selling release and the packaging was a PITA to manufacture.

So. Where do you guys buy these moonshake records from?? I've done a fair bit of googling but I come up blank.
Thanks in advance
i still consider them piracy and won't encourage linking here
finally even Discogs banned the reselling of them

Couldn't they make a cheaper package for the reprint?
not that a reprint would ever happen, but still
Oh I see, well if someone could possibly me message me a link I would be very grateful.

Bummer...I'm in the same boat with SHO and Outrun. If and when, I'll pick it up, but with the SNES Classic stuff going on right now I just can't even think about adding another thing to look out for.

Yeah just straight up bootlegs
and it was "more" acceptable when we didn't have any alternative. But now Mondo especially is publishing Castlevania etc. legit, it is more troublesome as those bootleg versions will eat their customerbase for sure.
Moonshake has done mainly Nintendo stuff so far though, but i would think it's a higher barrier now if someone wants to do Donkey Kong Country or Super Metroid for example, knowing there is some 500 copies out already.
Since when was the last time Nintendo released anything on official vinyl though? Like never. It's been other VG companies that have done it but besides them, Nintendo has never put out their stuff physically for ease of access. There's CDs here and there but never vinyl that's for sure.

Speaking of Nintendo on vinyl this was posted today. This doesn't necessarily mean anything other than that they visited a store, but it does look like one hell of teaser.
Yeah, pretty mean spirited if it's anything other than a nintendo SL9 collaborative release teaser.

I doubt this is anything, but I'll be happy to be proven wrong.

Here you go. Too many people trying to keep it a secret.

There's a Splatoon 2 disc that was sent to the press in the UK. In the early 80's they had a bunch of Famicom related disks.
The Mother 1 and 2 Records were released in the US recently as well. Supposedly having a reprint this year.

Hmm, yeah that's an iffy way to tease something, if true. Also, Spacelab wouldn't be my top choice for Nintendo releases but it could be worse...
Do we know who was responsible for that Splatoon 2 pressing and if it was any good?
That's too bad, it's the sole DD release missing from my collection.
Received Ninja Senki, and it's pretty badly warped
There's basically a big bulge in the middle, so the whole record is convex from one of the sides
Geez, that's two of them now. How are they packaging these things?
Pretty sure it's the pressing technique and not the packaging. I have another (non-vgm) release pressed the same way and it has the exact same odd "bowl-shaped" warp. It plays fine though.
I read the same thing. Packaging was a bitch, unlikely to be repressed; if it is repressed, I'm guessing the packaging will not have the cutouts for the lettering.

I got mine as well and it's the same slight concave-ish warp. The look of the vinyl is nothing special and not worth the special process. So yeah, not a fan and I'm not about to to play it on my machine. Guess I'll be contacting Yetee to see if I can get a replacement.

DKC doesn't?
Only made it through Super Metroid so far. Currently have Metroid 2 on and it's also fantastic.

My sunset riders shipped this morning. ETA of the 29th.
A 12" with Faye Wong's "Eyes On Me" (from Final Fantasy VIII) is up for preorder on Amazon Japan (but ships worldwide): https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B074ZXYJWF/
EDIT: Other sites have listed this as a 7" and not a 12" like I first posted. Just FYI.

I own the FF8 vinyl, FF7 is on the way, and the FF Vinyls set is the lone white whale I still want for my collection. I was tempted for maybe 2 seconds before giving in.

I have FFIX on CD and the black materia vinyl. I just might grab this one to expand the collection. Do you know how much the shipping came out to? I'm in USA.
First (and last) time ordering from Moonshake. Wasn't entirely clear what I was getting myself into when I ordered (i.e. hey this is straight up a bootleg) and the sound quality seems shitty after some time with Metroid. Cleaned the disc and has a ton of noise... feels like I hear the pops better than I hear the music.
Also, not sure what I was expecting, but seeing how DKC is literally just the first game's soundtrack was kind of a bummer as I really dig Stickerbrush Symphony (like everyone else); Aquatic Ambiance is still there though.
Edit: I will admit though, pops and all, listening to Super Metroid on vinyl is pretty rad.

My brother and I both received the DKC vinyl. I haven't listened to it yet but my brother says that he felt some of the levels were off. Doesn't "slap" as hard as he was expecting he said.
Side A of DKC is at least better than side A of Metroid (playing right now). Totally anecdotal, I know, but I'm more pleased with this one sound quality wise.

Bought an LP5 for my first turntable yesterday! Very excited to set it up and spin some Hotline Miami tracks
Apologies if this is a bad post since it is not a game soundtrack - but Netflix's Castlevania is getting a double LP and it looks marvelous.

He posted saying he actually worked the hardest on DKC saying he got somebody in to help boost the bass in the music or something. So that is a bummer to hear. I haven't set up my record player still after moving so I haven't gotten to listen yet.

I'm in the same situation after a recent move. Guess I'll just have to listen to it myself and be the judge.

I wish the Castlevania show used game theme arrangements, lol
950 yen to the US.
You are not alone. I will still buy it.
