I'm eventually going to miss one of these due to the nature of the communication. Hard to keep up with Twitter and this thread.

I missed breach and clear because I didn't know they even existed lol.
So far we have oddworld april, futuridium may, y2k tbd, volume tbd, cosmic star heroine tbd.

Can you guys at LRG take a look at Jenny LeClue? Would be a great choice for limited run, could make an amazing cover with that artwork as well. Dont know if they were doing a Vita release, but I know they are doing PS4 for sure.

Love that one too, and day of the tentacle has also released and I would love to see all double fine games.

Now that things are moving along pretty quickly, would be nice if LRG could add a release calendar to their site. Or otherwise have release info in a concise, easy to access place that I could always check without asking or digging through social media.
 
We're working on an upcoming release page - the tricky thing is that we can't announce or set release dates until we're well into manufacturing (we didn't do that for Saturday Morning RPG and it resulted in several delays). We will be announcing the release date for each game a few weeks before orders open, though, so there will be a good chance for you to catch our announcements.

Even just a coming soon list would be a big help. That also allows longterm exposure, because anybody who is interested in your stuff can just go to your confirmed coming-soons and sign up for the newsletter.

I think it wouldn't be too difficult to implement a mailing list and let users select which game release dates they want to get notified about or even be notified of them all.
A simple update of the database and a mailing list would do the trick.

Thanks, this would be a big help! Just like the post above mentioned, it would be useful even if all it had was a list of confirmed titles along with 'TBA' as the release date. Knowing that there's no confirmed date yet would give some peace of mind to anyone trying to keep up.

We've actually got a mailing list - the sign up for it is at the bottom of our site. We're not spammy with it so don't worry. We only send emails out for important announcements.
 
We tried pitching the original publisher on a Vita specific version but were not successful in getting that funded, unfortunately.

Haha. I'm sure you did everything you could, I've definitely seen the love you guys give to Vita! It's a shame, but I can take the hit, I'm a Vita fan and it's par for the course :p

With the release of Samorost 3 i have also thought on a Machinarium vita, I love that game.
Also something a bit crazy/difficult crossed my mind, I know that would be very difficult but since I bought them last week I would like to know if it'd be possible, sony released on ps3 4 games(fat princess, when vikings attack,tokyo jungle and sound shapes on a disc) will it be possible releasing don't know 2,3,4 games or whatever on a disc being ps2 classics hd? I mean rogue galaxy, dark cloud I, dark cloud 2, arc the lad etc.

It would be possible to put games that were re-released on PS4 like Rouge Galaxy on a disc. The problem is getting them to do it or allowing us to do it.

We still haven't taken a big look into doing PS3 titles, but those are some great games that should be on a disc.

Eiyuu Senki and Yakuza 5 come to mind

If y'all could ever team with Tozai Games and get Spelunker HD (and God-willing, Spelunker Black, which was delisted) on disc I would love you forever.

Thanks as always for answering ;). Completely subscribe Doctor_Thomas words.
It's because me and my brother bought them in the sale (although we DON'T LIKE digital games there is no other way possible to buy them)and although I haven't started replaying them I remember specially playing dark chronicles and I enjoyed it so so so much I wouldn't mind buying it again retail ps4 of course.(And now every digital game that I want in retail I tell you).
About the ps3 games if you know me I have said many times that the game I would like the most(above every digital game available ) would be yakuza 5.So if you take a look and get any news share with us.Thanks LRG
 
I get to be first on this one! We just announced the PS4 version of Oddworld: New N' Tasty. This includes the Alf's Escape DLC on disc.

Awesome! I'm a much bigger PS4 gamer than Vita (I don't even have one proper, just a PS TV) but was still going to grab this game because I always hoped it would hit retail. Now I don't have to make that compromise.

You guys are seriously legends.
 
The DLC is also on the vita version or it's exclusive to PS4?

I want to grab both damnnnn.

Alf's Escape is not available on Vita at all (digitally or otherwise). I don't know what Oddworld Inhabitants' plans regarding that are but I know it won't be included with our release. It's PS4 only for us.

Wow, wasn't going to pick up Oddworld (I'm more of a digital only user for Vita) but I will definitely buy the PS4 Edition. Thanks for all your hard work Limited Run Games Team!
 
I was actually going to inquiry earlier on whether it would be a fruitless endeavor to hold out for a PS4 version further down the road, but I'm thrilled to hear Oddworld will be launching pretty soon! I've never ordered from the website yet I wouldn't be surprised if it's going to be a blood bath trying to nab a physical copy.
 
I get that they're proud of their game, but since it's a collector's item it really, REALLY should not be on there.

If you absolutely NEED to have them there for some reason, you have to offer a reversible cover.

Hopefully i'll be able to snatch one! Love physical games for Vita!
Will this be US only or both US and EU?

They ship worldwide, but it's more expensive.
 
Is there an official page that is updated with the release dates that I can check? I know the OP shows the upcoming releases/dates, but if there is an official page that is updated I'd like to have it as well.

There currently isn't, because there are no confirmed dates. :) LRG only starts selling once the copies are produced and in hand, so it's hard to plan too far in advance.
 
We're going to go ahead and offer a printable replacement cover for Oddworld without the review scores. The game is already very far into production (we'll actually have it in hand within the next two weeks) so we can't offer anything else.

While we're at it, we'll also offer printable covers for Saturday Morning RPG (Vita) and Breach & Clear (Vita). The printable SMRPG cover will have the PS4 art, while the printable B&C cover will add the Limited Run catalog number to the spine.

Eventually we want to offer slip cases for SMRPG and B&C that will offer similar corrections but allow you to keep your games sealed (if you prefer).
