Oh, cool. Well 21st is my payday so I'll have money just in time for Munch and Revenant Saga.

But man, if I miss one of those games it'll be a bummer!

Just got my order in. Ordered 2 of Factotum so that I can hopefully get both covers.

It's been a while since I bought a game from LRG. Metronomicon looks neat! I'll be going for that one and Munch on the 23rd.

Always ready for a new rhythm game. Metronomicon looks pretty interesting ! It is a sure buy :D
Beautiful cover btw.
(I still hope we'll get Crypt of the Necrodancer someday !)

Revenant Saga is another game trying to mimic the Final Fantasy covers, I see :p
As for the game itself, it's from Kemco, and I'm not too pleased (at all) by what I read. I'll skip it like I skipped Asdivine.

I'll probably pick up Metronomicon and Munches Odyssey, but despite loving jrpgs, I really don't want to pick up Revenant Saga. Asdivine Hearts was awful and easily the worst game I played last year.

Second batch lasting a bit despite first batch selling out so quickly.

Runs are equal and Vita still beating PS4 as usual.

Hey, thanks to anyone who bought Home today on PS4 or Vita. It means a lot!

I bought it digitally and physically. It's a great game and I'm glad it's out there. It's one of the first games I downloaded on my Vita years ago and it's weirdly nostalgic for me at this point. It's a great game and I'm glad you made it. Thank you!

I feel bad if you really, really thought Vita was going to last forever. Developers had been canceling Vita ports long before Switch was announced. It was a great handheld and we will support it as long as we can but unless Sony comes up with something comparable, Vita's life is quickly running out. I can confirm Vita is struggling based on our sales. Sure lately they still sell out, but we've been having to lower the amount of units as we don't want to get stuck with any.

Since there was some discussion about it a while ago, Doug's post about the matter on the LRG forums.

I have noticed Vita runs have been getting lower for some games so wondered if this was the case.Then again, both Factotum and Home this week have the same number of copies across PS4 & Vita and the Vita versions are (so far) shifting faster in both cases.

I really don't like they're condescending attitude with that post. Like, no one thinks Vita is going to last forever, and we all realize it's in its twilight years. No one is asking them to develop Vita games. Just continue to support the Vita like they have been instead of whining about how it's failing, because unless they're secretly selling more PS4 copies than they let on, what we're seeing on the website tells us it sells at the same rate PS4 games do.

hasn't it just been the case of crappy games selling slowly? i honestly have no idea what has released within the last 2 months because whoever updates the wikipedia page hasn't since december 15th

Thanks, Frump. It is definitely surreal to see this little game going strong this many years later. I'm lucky to have players like yourself who gave it a chance.

You don't really understand the situation behind that thread or the back story of the guy I'm replying to. I'm trolling that person because they are a well known personality in the LRG community that is typically unreasonable in every aspect.

arent a lot of these games lower amounts bc although they might be a little popular, it would be harder to sell more amounts? I assume Oddworld will have more than 2k or 2.5k... it all depends on the title.... even if u had to just make 1000 copies of a game in order to sell out, you would stop altogether? Still means money for you guys and the devs..

I'm itching for more Switch announcements. I kinda don't want to buy indie games digitally only for them to release physically.

I might make an exception for Golf Story, though! wink wink

Also, any word if Kemco RPGs are going to get their way to Switch LRG releases?

Alright, fair enough. I do recognize some people are just unreasonable and I'm not familiar with the LRG forums much.

I can't say much other than 1,000 isn't the MOQ so yeah if it got that low we would stop. :(

I hate UPS soooooooo much! My Windjammers shipped out on the 28th... It's apparently been in my (small) town (with a small but quick) post office since Wednesday... I have no idea if UPS is fumbling about with USPS, because usually once it lands in my town, I get it within a day via USPS. Nothing's updated since the 7th, so who knows who actually has it and what the hold up is :/ I just hope that I GET it. I really hate it when UPS passes it off to the post office than just deliver it themselves. It's an incredible hassle...

I have nothing but good experiences with UPS Ground or better. The experience you are describing is every UPS Mail Innovations delivery I've ever had. I'd consider it a small miracle if one of those got turned around in a day after arriving locally.

I wish they'd let us use a different shipping method. It's like they want to inflict as much pain as possible. I think my slow parcels from Play Asia get here more quickly than the LRG stuff.

Is it really that much cheaper to use this method? I don't even know why this is a thing. To me, it seems like a big hassle if I had to work for UPS and do this. Like, I don't get what the point is? For example, my main UPS hub is a few towns away, so UPS delivers from out there. When they do it this way, they have to specifically go to every local post office to hand off a package. It just doesn't even sound efficient, let alone a cheaper option for customers.

If you were trolling does that mean Vita versions aren't struggling in sales for you? :P

They're 50/50, some blame is game choices and some is userbase moving away to other consoles.

It's definitely not like it was 6 months ago though. I have faith some of the bigger titles we have will draw some more customers back. But I do truly believe some have just plain moved on from Vita. But who knows, maybe when people see our announcements it will cause them to dust off their Vita or go buy another one. If the Vita is going out soon I want it to go out with a bang!

Just had a childhood friend I'm visiting this weekend tell me he doesn't collect Vita anymore and mainly uses it if he wants to replay old Final Fantasy games. Hoping when I tell him about Munch he gets hyped again though since he first introduced me to Oddworld!

Just out of interest - do you think people still collect PS4 like they used to? Because something seems to be slowing down those releases too.

Things definitely weren't where they were a while ago but it seems to be the same about both consoles. I understand you have to be conscious of when Vita finally dies because it's going to be a lot sooner than PS4, but still.

I think its for several reasons and by most likely in this order...

1. We released too many games at once!
2. The slow down happens to be happening when a lot of AAA CEs and games have been coming out as well as being during the holidays. This personally affected me as I had like 4 CEs shipped to me in a two week span and none of them were cheap...
3. More competitors and older ones stepping up their output.
