Not bad, thanks for sharing.
That remains to be seen. There are numerous special circumstances in this case which makes it impossible to compare to other LRG releases. Had it been $24.99, possible to co-ship with another release and only available today then I would have bought it. I didn't, yet.

tracking for OWH finally updated. Was getting slightly worried. So if you're still waiting, soon! Probably

I'm just waiting for the money to pre-order it with.

The problem is that a lot of people put it off and then eventually decide they don't really need it or worse, they forget to place their orders. That impulse, time limited purchase does a lot.
Waiting for Volume too.
We don't know how many games will be preordered in the end. "Day one preorders" are not a "proof" of success nor failure.
Some are just too eager to discard the preorder system without giving it a fair chance.
Whatever happens, I'm glad this experience takes place.

Same. One of the reasons I prefer this way Is theres no need to rush it.
Just inspect the page or read the source code.

Pretty spiffy looking all together like that. Also not too miffed about the booklets anymore either.

I hope the Stranger's Wrath physical release is going to have a preorder like Skull Girls. I prefer to be less stressed when it comes to buying games.

Love the tiny Vita cart, but I don't think they're THAT small 
Thanks for the communication and listening to requests, that's how it should be done

Maybe the game is actually just shipping pre-installed on recycled 4GB memory cards with stickers on them. Gotta do something with them, since no one wants less than 8GB.
Reminds me of the memory card stickers that use to come in PSM magazine back in the day. I loved those.
absolutely joking, in case it's not obvious
Perhaps tomorrow then... I'm still sitting on the initial and nothing beyond...

Glad the bundle option for Skullgirls ended up happening, like with others will bundle with Volume, I own it digitally so there is no impact by waiting for the arrival.
It's kind of worrying when you've placed a $100.00+ order & you hear nothing for 5 weeks...
I'm not that fussed (at the moment), it's heading to Australia and in the past we have about a 2-3 shipping period turnaround when that first update hits.
A mate of mine had his first update on the 8th and the next scan was on the 22nd, he received it on the 27th, basically 3 weeks and that is something we have seen before. I've seen a parcel in the past not be scanned in, and just suddenly arrive, at the moment I might be lucky to receive it by the end of the week. If there is nothing received or updated by next Monday, that's when I would lodge an "official"query.
I'll be there still on Nov 4th for Volume still!

Yeah I know that feeling. Sorry if I made you more anxious with the update, was supposed to be the opposite! Shipping took a bit longer than I'm used to to Germany as well. Most of the time, everything works out in the end!

My OWH arrived on Friday if that makes anyone feel better (or worse), UK gamer here.
Took much longer than any previous game but still got here at least!

I don't understand why anyone would worry, I trust LRG blindly - there's no way you won't receive all of the games you ordered. Sucks to wait, but I don't mind since I don't open mine anyway.

Still haven't received my OWH and TWA
Never took this long...
I think most people in Europe haven't.
I trust LRG (I've bought every game/OST), but when it's "in route to US Export Warehouse" & stays like that for two weeks, who is responsible then? Still LRG or the shipping company?

Mine just arrived a couple of days ago, probably nothing to be worried about yet. I think LRG also mentioned on Twitter that some orders left their warehouse not very long ago.
It did actually, knowing I wasn't alone having "issues"... not that I actually them issues...
I do... if I didn't, I would have dropped off the releases long ago... they do a fantastic job for a 2 person team!
Hehe. No worries.
It's always helpful to see what state other people's orders are at.sixteen-bit

Any chance Indivisible gets the same physical release treatment as Skullgirls? Would love to see a soundtrack release too cuz Kikuta.
That's up to 505 Games, Indivisible's publisher.

I'm not worried, it just takes more time than normally..
Well I'm an idiot. My Hot Pink Envelope has been sitting in the community mailbox since Friday and I hadn't bothered checking mail and tracking since Thursday afternoon. As of Thursday afternoon it still wasn't showing it had arrived in Canada and all other orders have gone to Quebec first and then made their way across Canada so had no reason to think it would show up when it did. For some reason this time it came directly to Calgary from the US though so once it cleared customs Thursday night it was delivered the next day. That poor Hot Pink Envelope spending four cold nights in a community mailbox while I was oblivious to it being delivered =P

Don't worry yet about Thomas and OWH. It was our biggest run and we shipped it with just two people. No one's orders are lost - in fact, the final 300 international parcels literally just hit the export center on Saturday. Sorry this one took so long! We've got more people helping with shipment going forward and we're in the process of moving into a warehouse to really speed things up and make fulfillment a breeze.
All good, perhaps a suggestion going forward, I should preface that I haven't been really looking for this and it might be something that you have addressed before the above post.
When the final batch is out the door, just an update somewhere (GAF or Twitter) that "The final batch of {Game X} left our premise on {Insert Date}", sure we don't know what batch we are in, but we can apply our approximate shipping times from the end date before looking to chase up any possible issues.

I was super excited to be able to purchase the Skullgirls PS4 release, but the USD -> CAD conversion rate and the $15 USD shipping for a single polypacket breaks the deal for me.
I'll see if I can't scrounge up the money, but that shipping hurts.

Thanks. Missed the FAQ on the site.

If customs are a major problem in your area because of fees, send them an email and let them know. Maybe yours can be included in the list.
You'll get the games eventually, a friend of mine just had a problem with an order and they promised to fix it, and no doubt the shipping companies make mistakes.

Ravi already confirmed its getting a physical
Indivisible will have a full retail release from 505 Games.
However, the physical release from the campaign will get the full treatment you're seeing here and then some, since it's $60 and exclusive to the campaign.
We'll be putting out a mock-up of the Indivisible LE physical release as soon as we clear some paperwork with one of the first parties, and I think a lot of digital-only peeps will want to upgrade after they see it.

So glad after seeing Skullgirls that I put in for the physical Indivisible release.
