I'd love me some announcements for October!
I think there's a couple games that still need to be announced for next week, too?

No more releases for September.
Was Shadow Warrior 2 and Ys PAX ver. also considered part of Sept releases? Could've sworn I remember hearing that there was one more set of releases...
No "NEW" releases should be the correct thing. Re-releases are okay.
That would make sense then. Having a breather month is definitely nice.
No, I'm talking about a game that "supposedly" has English subs being listed on a website (like PA) and when it comes time for release it turns out to be false.
I've no idea about the reasons.
Only because everything got delayed to October. lol. Up in the air in how many titles next month will have
I hope Oct won't be packed with LRG titles for me. Another big month for purchases... (darn Amiami has also been killing my wallet each month :x)
I'd be up for one.Is there a specific thread for LRG Trades ? Cards & games ?
Tangent news but NIS America will be publishing the Silver Case sequel and already has a limited edition but the catch is:
PS4 only.
Only Bundled with the first game's LE
Dang it. If only they didn't do their pre charge at the moment...Tangent news but NIS America will be publishing the Silver Case sequel and already has a limited edition but the catch is:

Maybe with ESRB rating left out on the cover they are missing out on money. Probably demand Sony to help them keep the fee racketeering going.
You rate the game yourself and you pay them for a mandatory packaging defacement.
How ironic that the original Night Trap was one of the games that led to the creation of the ESRB and now LRG is being forced to include it on their packaging shortly after re-releasing Night Trap.
I can't say what they are other than those prices are not for the physical rating and are much, much higher.

Ugh, this sucks, sorry that you have to deal with this LRG
For what it's worth, I fully support raising all prices by $5 to cover ESRB fees.
Can LRG make reversible covers, one with ESRB and one without? I think that may be a way to get around the ugly ESRB logos defacing the beautiful artwork.
Why are people saying the prices are increasing due to mandatory ESRB ratings?
lol those ESRB logos are so tiny. I don't care really, I'm used to much worse
Glad to read that. I would not be paying more as a customer for ESRB nonsense. Prices are high enough as is.
Call me a weirdo, but I'm glad to see ESRB ratings come to the cover artit makes the games more "real" to me even if that's nonsensical.
I secretly felt this too.
Is there a specific thread for LRG Trades ? Cards & games ?
Both of you could possibly consult the Buy/Sell/Trade thread(s) in the 'Gaming Community' section or even the 'Trades' section on the official LRG forum. I can't vouch for the reliability of those circles as I've never participated in either of them, but they might be worth checking out for your commerce needs. A specific thread dedicated to Limited Run exchanges doesn't sound like it would hold up quite well on GAF. If anything, I suppose you could just make offers in this exact thread to see what happens before swapping details through PM and leaving appropriate feedback in the aforementioned 'Gaming' sub-section to help foster the B/S/T group. Heck, I'd like to heard some good reception myself on GAF trades as I have opened copies of Xeodrifter, Plague Road, Furi, Rez Infinite, Shadow Warrior Collection (SRG), Silver Case (PC), Night Trap and Super Meat Boy (PAL) that I'd like to take away from my shelves without having to fiddle with auction sites.I'd be up for one.
Agreed. Even ignoring all the holiday blockbusters and niche Japanese productions vying for a dollar, these next several months have a handful of notable digital indies, like Velocity and Axiom Verge, landing on disc for the first time on a Sony platform in the United States. Not to mention Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ and the Inside/Limbo compilation that just dropped within these past two weeks. Strictly Limited Games will kick off next month as a new limited pressing competitor, too.I hope Oct won't be packed with LRG titles for me. Another big month for purchases...
NIS America have been somewhat unsavory when it comes to their bundles from certain developers. I know several Vita fans complained about Yomawari: Night Alone getting hit with an inflated price as a result of Nippon Ichi Software's former title, Firefly Diary, appearing on the same cartridge. The game's respective limited edition also came bundled with all the same extras as Firefly Diary's set minus the collector's box. As someone that missed out on the latter game, I was thrilled with a chance to grab two for the price of one; however, I understand it was a bummer for hardcore handheld collectors out in the wild. This bundle definitely takes it to another whole level assuming a stand-alone offer for 25th Ward LE never surfaces on their store. I'm guessing they're attempting to shift unsold stock of the former game into Suda super-fans. If the forced bundle comes with a newly printed version of Silver Case that fixes some issues that kept the bonus chapters unlocking then that would be interesting.What, I already bought their Silver Case LE. Why on earth would they expect me to buy it a second time.
Although the cover art requirements are the sole change for the moment, LRG claims the cost could potentially hurt themselves, developers and the frequency of their releases. They're now subject to "ridiculous fines that could kill the company or at the very least a release." I'm somewhat curious whether the Deemo sticker situation tipped off the existence of the company to ESRB who proceeded to lay down their authority in an effort to bleed more money into their restrictive ocean.Will this have an effect on the kinds of games you release? I imagine it'd be less worth it to print some of the ~3k runs like you have in the past :/
Honestly, I'm also totally fine with ESRB ratings. They've been on everything in the States for well over twenty years and logos aren't anywhere as obnoxious compared to some certifications in PAL territories. Doubt we'll see many reversible covers as I recall LRG fussing about the cost in the past, but the minimalist approach was a nice ride while it lasted.Call me a weirdo, but I'm glad to see ESRB ratings come to the cover art—it makes the games more "real" to me even if that's nonsensical.
Another skip for me.
The main change is thousands of dollars less in the pockets of LRG and indie devs for every single release from what I understand plus they are more or less no longer allowed to release physical copies within 90 days of their original digital launch, unless they want to pay even more.
