    They both came today unharmed, separately. They also came with a sticker and a card.

    I got mine as well and it came with two limited run games stickers and the post card. The post card looks cool, has the same artwork as the PS4 version of the game which looks nice imo. I put it in another PS4 case since it won't fit in the Vita case.
    Everything in the above post is opinion unless stated otherwise.

    Without a PS4 or Vita, opening them is pointless for now.

    Last I heard, it was supposed to be sometime this month, unless it's gotten pushed back to April. It should definitely be the next release. Cosmic Star Heroine is still in development, and the developers are saying it'll be done sometime between June and August (and I don't know if the physical print run will come at the same time as its digital release or later). LRG also announced that they're releasing physical Vita and PS4 copies of Futuridium, a Star Fox-ish kind of game. That's already out digitally, so I'm assuming the print run isn't terribly far off. It's probably the next one after Oddworld.

    Edit: Scratch that. I just skimmed through some of LRG's recent tweets and they're saying "hopefully April" for Oddworld, so I guess March is a definite no. Makes sense, considering we're already half way through the month and there's been no announcement.

    They posted today that Oddworld is now in manufacturing and given past releases, it will probably be at least a couple of weeks until they receive the finished games.

    LRG is really cranking out the announcements lately. Now it's been revealed that they're releasing PS4 and Vita copies of YIIK: A Post-Modern RPG.

    I wonder if the game took the inspiration from Earthbound. Looks like a neat RPG.

    Limited Run games is definitely smart for increasing the price. They're taking advantage of the situation through supply and demand, but I would do the same thing considering the people that put these games on Ebay and make a profit off their work.

    Well, Oddworld Inhabitants probably had more say in the price and print run sizes than LRG. Let's hope that these copies will last longer than with the previous two games, since the PS4 version's getting 5000 copies. Vita print run is the same size as Saturday Morning RPG's Vita run, though. I guess they must really think the PS4 version has a lot more demand, for it to have double the print run size of the Vita version.

    Both should be easier to get considering they are limiting it to one copy per person per platform rather than the two they did per platform on the previous games. It will be interesting to see if the PS4 version even sells out as 5,000 units seems like a lot.

    I think it will sell. If I recall correctly, the PS4 version of Saturday Morning RPG sold out at a much faster pace than the Vita. I think the later sold out an hour or so after the PS4 version. Also, I remember people criticizing that they were unable to purchase the PS4 version because they had problems login to the site. Perhaps they increased the print run in order to cater to as many customers and make them happy? Don't know, honestly.

    All I know is that I am asking for the 25th off from work. No way I am loosing this one!

    Limited Run Games is starting to really pick up the pace now (much to the dismay of my wallet). They announced that Futuridium is going on sale May 9. 2000 copies for each platform (PS4 and Vita), $24.99 price point for either, different cover art for the two versions. And you can only order one of each platform version maximum.

    And then they announced that they're also producing physical copies of Lost Sea (PS4), Rainbow Moon (PS4 and Vita), and Soldner-X 2 (Vita). Now time for me to run off and see what these games are like, but let's be real, I'll probably buy them regardless, haha. Edit: And the latter two will have all new trophy sets exclusive to the physical versions, and all of these will have full-color manuals (hopefully this will be a given for all future LRG releases?).

    One for each platform...so that means I can get a PS4 and a Vita copy on the same order, right?

    Yep, they're just eliminating the option to buy 3 or 4 copies (two of each platform version, or one of one and two of another). The plan had been to allow collectors to buy one that they could keep sealed and one that they could open for each platform (or to buy a duplicate copy for a friend or whatever the case), but I guess most people were just taking the opportunity to flip a copy or two on eBay. And with them selling out so fast, I imagine a lot of people who were unable to get a single copy of any version were irked to see people buying up four.

    Really glad to see Soldner X2 getting a physical release through these guys. Its an excellent shoot em up game and one I can't wait to own physically (it can sit right alongside my physical copy of Darius for the Vita!).
    They do really seem to be picking up the pace with all the new game announcements, I just hope I can manage to snag me a copy of each for my Vita collection/backlog!

    I definitely did not expect Soldner-X2 to get a physical release. Definitely one to look out for, even though it's a shame that the first part is MIA (only on PS3).

    I just realized that I might be in trouble. My brother is also interested in at least the Vita version of Oddworld, while I want both PS4 and Vita. I think I should contact LRG to see what they say just in case. Also, 5000 for the PS4 and 2500 for the Vita...there was THAT much demand for SMRPG?
