Got mine today, although not folded, my cover was "very high" in the sleeve almost in line with the top of the case. No damage, but very close to have an unwanted crease...
As I unwrap, it was an easy adjustment in the end
It's been done before.
I believe they are avoiding that for future releases and just keeping it one cover always outward with reversible option.
It seems very strange that 'an odd box' of 60 games got sealed the wrong way round & nobody noticed - even the shipping team.
Looking around I've only seen two mentions of people receiving the other covers. One on Twitter & the other, the LRG forum moderator who got both variant covers sealed.
And it also appears that Factotum is getting two different/separate covers as well.
I already have both Golf Story and Mummy Demastered. Would double-dip for physical versions and would give me a reason to replay Golf Story.
They weren't the wrong way around, it's on purpose.
I meant they were going to avoid doing this on purpose in the future.
Heh, this too.
I feel like by the time they do it'll already be time to release some Switch games. Especially that 65k mark. Boosting your Twitter followers by 7-16% is no trivial task. They got a pretty big boost when the follower incentive was announced, but that boost might be the upper limit of what can be mustered quickly.
Don't think so. Only my River City and Double Dragon LEs shipped out.
Think I'm having a senior moment here. :/
When LRG discussed the SteamWorld covers, they clearly said that 'full collectors' wouldn't have to worry as everyone would get the same cover, so completionists only had to buy one copy of each. But a mysterious box got printed differently?
Then they said no more different covers & yet here's Factotum with two covers.
Oh, dang. I must have missed that then.
If you can find that statement, it'd be helpful. I see what you mean now.
Looks like that might get revised down a bit too :P
I wonder if they're going to be weaving in PS4 & Vita announcements in between. It's been a bit heavy on Switch for a few days now, which I do understand since they're trying to drum up business.
Haven't you heard? Every Vita owner moved on to the Switch, there's no need to release Vita titles anymore.
Found this image on the LRG forum which a member posted.

And I now see about Factotum having 2 separate, non reversible covers.... Ugh.
Factotum, of all games. I read that yesterday and no offense to the game, it doesn't really need two covers.
Hey, they're still doing loads for Vita. And I'm hopeful they'll realise what a good thing they've got going with this niche is well into the future as well.
But yes, I remember those comments :P
Woof, these forums got a little toxic while I was at PAX.
Canceled games weren't anything we've announced.
We do have Switch exclusive games signed.

The cancellation stuff is surely all small fry ?
Just promise machinarium wasn't one of them !!!
I can definitely say they were small. I can't confirm what they were but that definitely wasn't one of them.
Were any of them from Japan? :x
(I think we need a couple more announcements to... lighten the mood.)
I could've sworn like eight months ago I read there was some news on the horizon about The House in Fata Morgana on Vita - did that evaporate? Did I dream it?
It's another "confirmed, but not official" title... pretty much.
Well, when you occupy the likely role of principle Vita publisher in the coming year, you have to kind of expect cancellations to bring a little salt :) That said, it doesn't feel worse...maybe you just had too good of a time at PAX?
I don't think it was anything big or Vita exclusive.
Should have something to say about Fata soon!
This makes me happy , and also sad it hasn't happened yet
Have you guys approached the studio about machinearium at all ?
My oskar teddy needs a physical to cuddle at night
And the comment about it being not reversible.
OP
OP
I've been meaning to mention this info since you keep asking about Machinarium, but I'm afraid it isn't anything on the hopeful side. A fan asked the developer, Amanita Design, back in late September if they were interested in making hard copies of that game and LRG iterated that they'd like to help make it a possibility. Sadly, the team responded, "We're not planning any physical releases anytime soon."
If Factotum is getting two covers, VA-11 HALL-A must be getting nine different covers.
You can always buy the pack that comes with all nine different covers.
