Thread of Independent, Limited and Region Specific Physical Game Releases
- Thread starter Dancrane212
- Start date
- OT
Haven't said who is doing the release yet but Bushiden has a PS4 disc available as part of their KS campaign.
$45 USD
Hey, guys! Thanks for the kind words and the support! We appreciate it so much! :) As for who is doing the physical release... just waiting until the terms of our agreement are finalized before announcing. It will definitely be announced before the Kickstarter campaign is over, but should be much sooner than that!

Not that I've seen.
Happy to see that it ended up happening. The early comments made it seem like it was completely off the table.
I'm going to guess the answer to both these questions is no but is there any sign of a Switch physical release for either of the two Outlast games or The Infectious Madness of Doctor Dekker?
Thanks in advance for clarification on either of these.
Thanks in advance for clarification on either of these.
They're really going to try to release more after the first disaster? All right, let's see where this goes.
That does look very Ice Cream Surfer-ish and they did talk about a SHMUP at some point...
In September (at least on PS4), we had the following announcements for the west:
The Last Remnant Remastered
Resonance of Fate 4K/HD Edition
Earth Defense Force 5
Atelier Arland Series Deluxe Pack
Castlevania Requiem: Symphony of the Night & Rondo of Blood
(insert here stuff I forgot)
All digital only.

It's going to need to be incredibly limited to drum up interest.
It boggles my mind that there's tons of bad indies -- the really dreadful kind -- getting physical releases like it's the easiest thing and yet those listed, which would be much more appreciated both from the point of preservation and pleasing fans, get shafted. Everything's upside down.
There's a new Psikyo collection (vol. 2) out for preorder on Play-Asia. Including (not my description):
How is the first volume? good quality ports?
- Super popular fantasy adventures 2D scrolling shooter Gunbird2!
- A grand adventures in Japan where magic and technology co-exist, TENGAI!
- Flying through the sky with beautiful dragons, Dragon Blaze!
- The Greatest WWII shoot-'em-up ever STRIKERS series, Strikers 1945II!
How is the first volume? good quality ports?
The ports are great.
I made the mistake of buying Sengoku Blade (the orignal Japanese version of Tengai) on the eshop, when I wouldn't have if I'd known there would be a physical collection.
Basically I'm not buying anything digital now, as there may be physical later.
What are the worst games that have gotten physical?
I'm definitely feeling like there's too many. When SRG announced like 10 games on one day that was when I was out for getting them all...
Thanks for that info.
I feel like Plague Road is genuinely a bad game. I wouldn't single it out as "the worst" thing LRG ever put out, but it's up there. Exile's End is also pretty bad.
i'm starting to think only LRG can get good digital games or only the good digital games seem to go to LRG, last non LRG game i got was 99vidas and that was a huge stinker
I mean, EAS got Severed, which is huge, while LRG did get a few stinkers like Mecho Tales and Plague Road. Either way, I'm still buying EAS as well, but judging that even Devious Dungeon, which had a really small print and it's still available, I might as well just wait for the right time to pick those up instead of struggling to buy them day one.
Weird.. No doubt that LRG gets some good games, but so do others. EAS has had several and so has SLG.
And I know it's subjective, but I vastly prefer EAS' limited editions.
I'd say Umihara Kawase going to Strictly Limited was a big get as well.
Well since their second game is about to be announced I've updated the numbers again.
Another 3 PS4 copies sold in the last two weeks. And 17 for Vita.

I wonder how many of those companies will still be around in 5 years. Wouldn't be surprised if LRG are the only ones.
EAS doesn't need to operate a storefront and Play-Asia has a brand recognition, I think if anyone other than LRG survives, it's EAS.

Hopefully a cart/disc release would do well for them. Was disappointing to hear how it's been selling poorly on Retronauts a couple weeks back.
Something to help fund bigger changes to the game.

If you wanna risk it! 2000 copies on each platform still seems like a lot, especially for a game like this.
Nah. We have seven Vita titles this month* already, I'll pass.
(With Rabi-Ribi on November 2nd.)
What's the risk you're referring to? I ordered one, but I don't see much risk.
Based on how many copies Bard's Tale seems to have sold, I'm not sure the company's gonna stay around long.
I ordered one too but I'm not 100% confident it'll see the light of day.

Ah ffs! First Wonder Boy and now that. Stop delaying the games I'm actually interested in. :( Dec sucks for the post, games prolly wont make it to my country before the end of the year now.
When did it go on sale....yesterday? Can anyone see how many copies have been sold in the first 24 hrs?
Sure.
Vita currently has 1802 (sold 198 copies so far)
PS4 currently has 1889 (sold 111 copies so far)
Another slow burn.
Thanks! Wondering whether this will ever actually be made..... ^^
"Snake Pass" has been announced by Super Rare for October 11, by the way.

I haven't paid much attention to Hellblade since it was digital only but now they've most likely got my money. All I want to know is if this is going to be a definitive edition, including all patches and DLC if any was released?
