Those look awesome Wiggy!!!

I was only interested in the regular edition Ys Origin today, so my morning was pretty easy since it was unlimited pre-order on that version.
Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

I'll just leave this right here  ;D



When are you planning on adding to your store?  I would like one for Breach and Clear, maybe a few others.

We won't. LRG themselves will be selling them on their site.

Materials arrive on Monday, and with any luck the first batch will be done by the end of the week :)

What is LRG's usual release schedule?  Are they releasing games every week?  I'm still a little new to them and while I like them so far I don't want to see I'm blowing this much money weekly on games...  when I already have a backlog over a hundred games deep...   ::)

Weekly has sorta been their thing lately. But, as I understand it, they're working towards a twice a month schedule.

Yeah, they were originally on a twice a month schedule which was much more manageable.   I'm really a fan of quality of quantity here and 2-4 games a month would be a lot better then 8 imo.

It would be nice if they would have done/ will do games for Nintendo systems. I don't really care for Microsoft or Sony systems after PS2 and original Xbox. (I may one day)

I know they are working on it.  Going through ESRB ratings was one of the biggest things keeping them from wanting to go with Nintendo, but now that they will have to do with with PS4 anyway, it won't really matter anymore.

Hmm, never noticed that the Limited Run games weren't ESRB rated.

Can we add other games to this topic, even if not from Limited Run? Games that were first released as only digital, but got/ are getting a retail release later, or did/ will get one in only a certain region? Such as "I Am Setsuna" for the Switch which got a physical release in Asia and Japan

Anyway, the Nintendo Switch games Wonder Boy: The Dragon's Trap and Snipperclips are both getting physical releases in November. Glad I didn't get them yet! Wonder Boy is coming out in Asia: http://nintendoeverything.com/wonder-boy-the-dragons-trap-physical-version-up-for-pre-order-on-play-asia/?relatedposts_hit=1&relatedposts_origin=506709&relatedposts_position=0

And Snipperclips in a new version called Snipperclips Plus. Much like New Super Luigi U, you can get it as DLC if you have the original version, but with Snipperclips Plus, the physical release includes the original game as well. I think it's coming out everywhere: http://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/snipperclips-plus-switch

LRG made their official announcement on the ESRB ratings on PS4 games starting in October on Facebook this afternoon.

Hi everyone!
You may have noticed that things have been rather slow recently after a very busy July and August. There is a reason to this. We had a large slate of games scheduled for this month and next, but had to roll them into the future.
In late August, the ESRB announced a new industry-wide initiative to offer lower value-priced ratings for physical releases. It is now required by all three platform-holders to have physical games rated by the ESRB.
We’re hard at work on getting our upcoming slate rated properly and expect our next physical PlayStation releases to hit on October 13th. These will be our first games to feature ratings printed on the packaging and all games going forward will be rated.
All other US based publishers will be held to the same standard. Unrated physical releases are no more. Thank you for understanding and we’ll see you tomorrow for an October release announcement.
Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."
