    Default Limited Run Games (producing physical copies of digital games)

    I'm surprised no one else here is bringing up these guys. Seems right up our alley between the collectability of a physical copy + the rarity of a tiny print run (even smaller than much ballyhooed rarity of Gaijinworks' releases). Here's some info:

    http://www.hardcoregamer.com/2015/10...any-name-says/

    I can't say I had even heard of the games they're starting off with, and I can't say they sound or look that great either (Breach & Clear has pretty lousy reviews). But it's still an interesting prospect. Considering the low print runs and fairly low price for the games, I might nab them anyway, just to give them a shot. Or least for any Vita games they release, since I like the platform and it gets so few physical releases as it is. I hear Breach & Clear is at least improved from the digital release, so perhaps it's now not as bad as the reviews make it out to be.

    If they can actually manage to keep this business going, I hope they can advance beyond C-tier indie games. I'd especially love to see some Japanese games, but they don't localize and I kinda doubt the publishers who have localized Japanese games for digital-only releases would hand over their IPs. But there is some nice stuff coming out on Vita digitally that could sorely use a physical copy.

    EDIT:

    Since Limited Run Games has been in business for a while now, I thought it would be worthwhile to create a master list of their catalog.

    For the time being, all releases have their print runs split in half on the day of release, with the first half available at 10 AM EST, and the second half available at 6 PM EST. A minimal stock of canceled orders is also made available at a later date. Order limits are generally one, sometimes two, per game (or one per platform if the game is available on multiple platforms).

    I don't have a PS4 or Vita so whatever they start with won't really interest me but I agree that the concept holds potential, especially if they release stuff like the example of Marvel Vs Capcom 2 because games like that always disappear after awhile due to rights expiring. Maybe in the future they could even do some print runs of imports that never came here such as Metal Wolf Chaos or some of the Fire Pro Wrestling titles. I'll have to keep my eye on this.

    Is this different from Indie Box?

    Never heard of Indie Box before, but that's cool what they're doing too. That's limited to computer games, though, and it sounds like they're just throwing them on a flash drive. Limited Run Games is doing console/handheld games (so far just Vita and PS4), using the same medium as any regular retail release on those platforms.

    It still is similar to Indiebox. I have one for Steamworld Dig and it's very nice. Yes the game comes on a HID(security card) sized flat card that flips a thin USB plug out to install the game with (and there's a steam code) but it's all physical still.

    Shame that company appears to make some truly crappy games, hopefully they got something good coming up as noted that Breach game got bad reviews.

    Remember fangamer did this too and for Sony as well which goes to show how easy going and lax Sony is about publishing low rent digital games as physical for the market -- Retro City Rampage DX for both PS4(I have it) and Vita (don't) which came some months after. They're limited I think to 2-4K copies so even a smaller run than these guys stuff. Also there have been others too with Teslagrad, Pure Pool, Pure Chess, Pinball Arcade, Plants vs Zombies 2, Stick it to the Man, Shovel Knight (multi-format) and the too delayed upcoming MIghty 09 (also multi-format.)

    Oh good, thanks for pointing that out. It wasn't there earlier. I grabbed the LE at 10 but want to get a single copy too, especially since it will ship sooner - very much looking forward to having this fully in English!

    I finally got the opening post updated with the recent releases. I hope everybody who wanted Lumines and/or Jak 3 got a copy, and Aegis Defenders for Switch and PS4 and Battle Garegga for PS4 are still available.

    A lot of my orders have been coming in recently. I got a big box of seven Vita games (three of them CEs) from that brief window when I could combine my orders. Then Forma.8 and Dragon Fantasy showed up, and Nurse Love Syndrome and Alone With You should arrive tomorrow. The only unfulfilled order I have left is my Bloodstained CE. Now to just find the time to open and try out everything.

    LRG is selling a trio of PS4 games today: Desert Child, Strikers Edge, and The Infectious Madness of Doctor Dekker.

    Their PS4 print runs sure are getting small these days. None of these are even getting 2000 copies.

    I remember missing the reserve for Darius Burst Chronicles for the PS4. People were already selling the Collector’s Edition for @$150 on eBay. I found the official Japanese release of that same set for $100 and bought that instead.

    I’ve only reserved a few games from them, with the latest being the Castlevania Collection featuring Symphony of the Night and Rhondo of Blood. Most of what they are putting out is just shitty Small Dev games with no track record.

    its interesting what resellers are doing for some of these. you can really tell they generated the hype and the scalpers scoop them up but when they get them to resell they are kinda stuck.
    i got curse of the moon 2 classic what ever edition new for switch recently at a swap meet and the guy had $70 on it, i was looking to trade and i think in the end i got the game for the equivalent of about $40 or $50 in what ever the games i traded were.
    and the thing is, not many of them are limited at all.


    edit:
    so this is strange...

    i went to look up the cost of that game i got at the swap when it was being sold at LRG and noticed these:

    https://limitedrungames.com/products...ve-cover-sheet
    https://limitedrungames.com/products...ve-cover-sheet

    kinda seems a bit sketch in a way, cheap way to get good empty game cases for loose switch games though

    So I guess they forgot what the word "exclusive" means.

    You know what, I half expect them to just make limited editions of games, and then reprint them with a second "limited" print run. Like you need to hurry as there's only 500 copies available, and when they're sold out, then they'll make a second 500 copies.

    They kind of already do that when they rerelease games at Best Buy. You have no idea which games are being released at Best Buy. Granted it "might" be a single printing, but what I'm pretty sure happens is based on the popularity of the title they print more and ship those to Best Buy. Who knows how much inside knowledge they have about available Best Buy stock to reprint copies, no one knows that they're being reprinted if they are. Some games have been at Best Buy for over a year.

    Do you really expect me to believe that Bloodstained Curse of the Moon 2 is still in stock at Best Buy online because all copies haven't yet sold? Especially when it's been there for over a year, not to mention atleast a dozen other LRG games? Not only that, it's BOTH the Switch AND PS4 versions. I can't exactly guarantee, but I don't think it's a coincidence that these games have remained in stock. With as scummy as LRG has become within their second year of existence, but especially now.

    i stumbled across this video a little while ago and thought about sharing it or not
    sorry if its been posted before but i wasnt going to sift through this whole thread looking if it was or not.



    it follows kinda the same thing i think about them, with the added failed scalper attempts in the current time
