Limited Run Games - Putting digital games into your hands

Just.do.it Pretty please!!! :3 (Would be incredible that after killing with messages to both sega and sony for yakuza 5 physical then you're the ones to release it, I couldn't be happier if that release comes to reality.

I can't even begin to tell you how many emails to every possible Sega channel I wrote asking for Yakuza and PSO2. I even wrote a business plan telling them worst case scenario to just do digital with PSN. Weird part was a month or two later they announced it. and seemed to use my business plan. But that was most likely just a coincidence. I may of accidentally used my Ubisoft email when I worked there thinking it might actually get read. My response from Sega of Japan was this:

"First, as we have posted on web,
We supported each support window I please note that will be the only "Japanese person of living", "Japanese". "

Sorry for the bad google translate! But that response cracked me up.

Yakuza lover like me that's incredibly good to hear!(hope that helps in becoming a reality). Just thanks for doing a job I truly appreciate which is to make games physical(don't like only digital things),I wish everything goes well and you can provide us with lots of interesting retail games(although $$$ because I want every single one haha).
Other game I would absolutely love is Ori and the blind forest,there are so many incredible games waiting for a nice package ouch.

Now that you have multiple titles to work with, prioritize the most finalized games first. From oldest to newest are the most likely to be the final version where no more new patches and dlcs. Want the physical releases to be the final, final, complete codebase version where no internet is required for more stuff.

By the way, if you get bigger (hope so) it'd be nice if you could snatch Atelier Ayesha+.
It's the start of the Dusk trilogy and it'll be awkward having E&L+ and Shallie+ physical but not Ayesha+.

Slightly off topic, and honestly feeling like a moron because I can't find it, but where is the option to change your account password on your store front? Between CAG being defaced the other day and another breach at an online retailer I haven't used for years, I'm doing a round of password changes and am coming up empty on your site.

Good question, I don't even know the answer to this. Our site is running through Shopify so it uses all their security. I'll have to do some searching and respond when I figure out how to do it.

Convoluted af, but you can change your password by clicking "Forgot your password" on the log in screen. It will email you a link to reset your password. Don't know how to make this easier since it's all being powered by Shopify.

What happened with CAG, by the way? Should I be worried about my account details? I saw that it was down for an upgrade the other day but things look fine now.

Thanks for the tip, that'll work. As for CAG, this would explain it better than I would be able to.

I support this (obviously) and will ask Koei Tecmo about this tomorrow with A POLL!

13 games next year? That's impressive. I'm really curious what else is down the line. I gotta be selective since our dollar is in the toilet but there are more than a few digital only Vita games that I'm willing to drop the money on, Cosmic Star Heroine first and foremost. Would love to see more RPGs, like Dragon Fantasy.

This year.
 
Well...that's not going to help get one. There's going to be initial order restrictions right?

2 item max for the first 24 hours, then the restriction is lifted. I've got some alarms set up to try and get my order in next Friday. I think Oddworld will be harder to get depending on the print run, its a popular Playstation franchise that will probably be more sort after by fans and collectors alike.
 
so is there a list of up coming LRG games? I skimmed over the thread but didn't see anything.

Nothing yet. LRG has announced that they have 13 games coming for the PS4 this year, 12 for the Vita.

Saturday Morning RPG is up for order next week, and Oddworld is coming soon as well. I think they might also be doing Cosmic Star Heroine? Unless I imagined that.

Nah your not imagining. They had a blog post announcing it on their site. It'll be the first thing I buy from these guys.

For people wishing for an Atelier Ayesha +, a twitter user I spoke to emailed NISA and NISA is willing to Negotiate with Koei Tecmo to do a limited physical release. So lets stop bugging limited run games now ;)

After the last one sold out of it's LE before release, I would honestly hope that they'd at least consider trying it out again with the next one.

Business decisions. "Hey lets release the plus titles as digital only instead of limited physical releases because we all know how much vita owners love buying digital titles" <,<.
 
Unfortunately Curve Digital has that one locked up on consoles. I made sure to ask about it. :)

I just bought my girlfriend a Wii U, there are some interesting download-only games on the eShop, the Wii U has very little built-in storage, and my girlfriend doesn't have home internet, just 5GB of tethering from her phone to work with per month.

Any plans to do any Wii U releases? Thank you, your company sounds like a good solution to the perennial fears of digital game delistings!
 
The date will be announced in advance and if you have a calendar and a clock (or some fancy technology that combines both AND can alert you), you'll be able to get a copy.
I wouldn't worry

Man, all this exposure... These games are going to be as difficult to get as Amiibos. Ya'll just going to have to get lucky to stag one and hope their site doesn't crash. lol

Time to get excited for Saturday Morning RPG. I'm reviewing the Vita version, which is supposed to start working tomorrow. If you guys have any doubts before launch, which is in two days, lemme know.

They're both the same, basically. I heard the Vita version has slightly longer loading times, but it's a non-issue. I'm getting a Vita copy myself.

Just a few more hours!

Wish you guys would have put out a bundle that included both versions of SMRPG so I won't have to rush and add both to the cart :p.
 
The Vita game is my top priority, but I also kind of want to grab a PS4 copy. If I add the Vita version to my cart, am I safe to spend the time adding the PS4 version next?

Or should I just go ahead and checkout with the Vita version?
