Yeah, it's probably this. I'll have to look into turning it off or granting some sort of permissions for this site.
I do see that, but clicking it doesn't do anything for me. I have to right click it and open it in a new tab.

FYI: The PAL exclusive XB1 copies of Outcast: Second Contact have reached a solid, import friendly, price of ~$25USD if anyone else was keeping an eye on them.

False alarm. Just got an email about a non-gaming thing shipping.
Undertale launched for PlayStation 4 and PS Vita via the PlayStation Store in Japan on August 16, 2017.
Fangamer Japan will release an online store-exclusive standard edition physical version of the game starting May 24 in Japan. It will include a 24-page, full color story book featuring illustrations by Temmie.

I already own it on both PS4 and VIta. I want the JP one as well on Vita.
Base.com lists Fe for PS4, XO and PC. Has it been confirmed for a physical release?

Not sure who the publisher is, but it looks like The Coma: Recut's getting a physical Switch release in May.

Yonder The Cloud Catcher is getting a retail release on Switch later this year. Publisher is NBG (?).

Second EAS Vita release to sell out. I wonder what's next, One More Dungeon?
That's actually pretty impressive since it already had a physical version on PS4 and the print was pretty large for EAS (4,000 copies). Hopefully this success will mean another collaboration with the developer for Super Hydorah on Vita/PS4.

Badland is publishing a PS4 physical version of Goliath. Just spotted it on Amazon UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Badlands-Games-PS400511-Goliath-PS4/dp/B079WT6FQ2/
Goliath is currently available digitally on Xbox One and PC. PS4 digital version was planned for late last year, but never released.
Here's Badland's page on it: http://badlandindie.com/goliath/

Wow, what are we at now? 6 companies?
Not counting special situations like Gamestop deals or traditional publishing deals like SOEDESCO...
Limited Run Games
Signature Edition Games
Special Reserve Games
Super Rare Games
Eastasiasoft
Strictly Limited Games
I could open the dictionary at random and come up with a better name than that.
OK... that's not the sort of concrete information I expected out of an about page. There's a PEGI logo on their first release, so they should be based in Europe at least, maybe UK?

Game price plus £7.99 for shipping and £5 for taxes? What taxes?
Edit. Well, I guess they show the price without VAT. So the game actually costs 29.99 plus shipping...

GamesIndustry.biz article on Super Rare Games

Much more in the article itself.

"Our competitors are just trying to sign as much content as possible, whereas we're being much more picky, looking for the very best games that we've played, we've loved and we want to see [as part of this collection]," he says.
Translation: Most games are either picked up by others already or are from publishers/developers not interested in doing a physical run/working with us. Beggars can't be choosers. But these games are top of the line, I swear.

It's not something I'm against, particularly. SLG is doing just that, releasing only one game per month.
I'd much rather have a few crappy limited games, then half the swill LRG pushes out every month. Pretty much anyone that came to LRG, they signed, and half their stuff has CE now... for collectors, it should be much easier to collect from these other companies.
easier to what end? If limited run signed fewer games that generated less interest, they would be easier to collect as well.
Say what you will about Super Rare Games, Human Fall Flat for Switch is a superb choice for a first release.
From what I have seen of it, it looks good, but seems better co-op than alone.

For my liking, 43 Euros is a tad bit too much for Human Fall Flat. 5500 looks like a decent print run though.
Super Rare Games is Curve's physical publishing arm. Since LRG haven't done Curve games on Switch (from what we know), it's likely that the first selection of games come from their own published games.
Will be interesting to see what they come up with after they run out of Curve games.

Publisher is either Merge or Headup, sonce Merge does distribution for both (Merge is doing Slain and Yonder, posted somewhere above)

I was gonna say, it's interesting that their first game is a Curve title. I'm guessing that's the end of the LRG/Curve partnership then so there's little chance of me getting a physical copy of Hue or Stealth Inc 2 :(
I wonder if they're gonna do a print of Human Fall Flat on PS4 or if it's just Switch only going forward for them.

I don't think companies are making exclusive contracts anymore. Ratalaika released one game through Signature Edition, then another one with EAS, for an example.
