    I'm gonna write to the official Bubsy Twitter account and see if I can provoke this into being a real thing.

    Even if not from LRG, full set collectors and what have you are going to buy it. But if you've already made the decision to collect a full set, it's not like you're going to resent having to buy a crappy game. There's no library that has 100% good games, so full set collectors know what they're getting into. Even if some of the games are bad, there's enjoyment to be had just in getting one step closer to accomplishing your collecting goal.

    Maybe see if a stretch goal can be a limited Dreamcast port too.

    My a-paw-logies. I should have read the Kickstarter's description more closely - there's no need to talk to Limited Run Games after all! As it turns out, there is a $50 tier on Kickstarter for a physical PlayStation 4 copy of the game plus a CD-based copy of its original soundtrack.

    While there is a physical copy being produced, it's not the same as an LRG release. People can skip over a general type release, but if it's an LRG release they'll have to buy it for a complete LRG set. For the bragging rights of owning a complete set.

    If you count platform variants, LRG has put out over 200 releases at this point. There are very few people going for a full LRG set at this point, and the few who remain aren't complaining about the quality of the games. There are also tons of LRG copycats these days, so if somebody wanted every LRG release, they'd probably want every release from Strictly Limited Games, Signature Edition Games, Red Art Games, etc. etc. too, making it all the more financially unrealistic to get everything.

    Their Kickstarter project reached 71% of its funding goal, so FUNDING DENIED. They say they are looking at still delivering some of the DLC for the game after launch.

    FYI, physical versions of Bubsy: Paws On Fire! for Switch and PS4 have been announced. They will be published in North America only. Digital versions will be available in Europe and Asia. But as I recall, N.A. PS4 and Switch games should have no problem running on those consoles from Europe and Asia.
