I wasn't working there when Metronomicon came out, but from what I understand there was a quantity issue. It sounds like Doug and Sarah are already on top of it over on the official forums. Always reach out with issues, and you'll be taken care of. If your voice ever gets lost in the noise, reach out again, I promise you're not being ignored.

Whoa, when did you start working for LRG? Congrats.

So I bought some Saturn games yesterday... I can't wait for the LRG replacements. Any..updates on them? ...I sure hope the little foamy parts come with them too :x

When will we find out what's in those CE's for 2064 and VA-11 Hall-A, or will it just be a "buy it and be surprised" sort of thing?
Maybe tomorrow when they put up the bundle or on Friday morning. Pretty irritating. I asked on Twitter but of course it was ignored. At this point I really am expecting the worst and just expecting a magnetic box.

Any word on what is included in the VA-11 HALL-A Collector's edition? Kind of ridiculous there is no information on the site or even good photos showing it off so we can get an idea of how it looks.

Edit- I see I'm not alone on this.

From what I understand Metronomicon really is a unique case. I generally won't comment on stuff like this because I'm not support, shipping, or...Doug lol. But this just happened to be an instance where I didn't see him commenting here on it, and I knew he was over on the official forums so I wanted to carry that over here.

Emily / Sarah have been really helpful in sorting things out. They gave me several options (take a promo copy, take a refund, take a different upcoming game) and have been very apologetic and professional throughout.

As I found a copy of Metronomicon I can buy in the UK I went with a copy of Musynx on Vita instead so I'm pretty happy overall.

Hope anyone else with a missing copy is also able to get sorted.

Don't take it too hard.....my questions on here are being ignored by LRG as well (see above). :)

I don't want you to feel ignored, but I'm also not really able to answer your questions. But here's you not being ignored!

Yes, on their official forums Doug said there will be. At least ....for Switch. Not sure about PS4. It's apparent those sell a lot slower than the SWI ones, so maybe a smaller quantity on PS4? If at all.

LimitedRunGames

1.) Will "Thumper" get a PS4 CE as well?
2.) Will every Switch game get one? I hope not, although I really dig them.....but my wallet doesn't. :)
"Golf Story" needs one, though! With golf balls! And maybe a piece of putting green lawn! (Ideally artificial ^^)
3.) Could you reveal the full July slate? Would be so helpful!
4.) "Super Hydorah" is soooo good. Any more (classic) shmups* coming our way? <3


EDIT: ...that isn't "Battle Garegga". Already got that on Saturn, although I may buy yours anyway. ^^

1. In general you aren't being ignored if a question like this isn't answered. There's a rhyme and reason to how Josh, Doug, and the rest announce things and if they don't answer you it's either because they don't have an answer or it's not something they can answer.
2. This starts as a question, and then turns into a comment.
3. No. But I'll tell you what I can do. List my favorite types of gum in no particular order. Juicy Fruit, Bubble Tape, Big League Chew, Juicy Fruit again.
4. Probably? Super Hydorah is excellent though. You are right on that one.

Here's the contents:

No soundtrack which is all I wanted.

The VA-11 HALL-A Collector's Edition features:

  • VA-11 HALL-A physical game for the PlayStation Vita
  • Reversible cover art
  • A beautiful foil gatefold box with magnetic features allowing connection to the 2064 Collector's Edition
  • A dual-sided 18 x 24 inch poster
  • An enamel pin
  • Three drink coasters featuring art from the game
If your order contains both the VA-11 HALL-A Collector's Edition and the 2064 Collector's Edition, will we include an additional (and free) panoramic poster featuring these releases' gatefold art in your order.

The 2064 Collector's Edition features:

  • 2064 Read Only Memories physical game for the PlayStation Vita
  • Reversible cover art
  • A beautiful foil gatefold box with magnetic features allowing connection to the VA-11 HALL-A Collector's Edition
  • A dual-sided 18 x 24 inch poster
  • A PVC key chain
  • Three drink coasters featuring art from the game

Are the drink coasters cardboard?

I like the magnetic thing. That sounds pretty innovative.

Okay....thanks for replying to me. Starts off nice enough, and while I'm really not a fan of this super short notice reveals of releases and contents, I get that. But, uh...


2. This starts as a question, and then turns into a comment.

.....yes? So? I mean, questions can be followed by comments, I believe? That doesn't invalidate the question?
At this point I was a little confused....



3. No. But I'll tell you what I can do. List my favorite types of gum in no particular order. Juicy Fruit, Bubble Tape, Big League Chew, Juicy


....which turned into feeling mocked. Had a real WTF-moment here. You probably meant it in jest but it came across really strange. :-/

4. Probably? Super Hydorah is excellent though. You are right on that one.

Okay then. Was just providing an opportunity to tease some nice shmup action. Whatever. SLG & PA got us covered next month. :-p

I was all in for grabbing the CE for valhalla and ROM but I'm disappointed with the contents, i believe the price isn't justified by any means.

I honestly think you are overthinking and overanalyzing this response...

Also, we have good shmups coming.

Friday will be the first time I (try to) buy more than one game, I'm a bit nervous - wish there was a combo of 2064 and Va11-Hal-a!. Also, I think I'm sticking to the regular editions, I can't justify paying double for each game given the contents of the LE.

Yeah, you're probably right. Thanks. ^^

It's just....I spend all of my monthly gaming budget on LRG, everything else has been on hold for a while now due to the high volume of good stuff....so I get emotional, I suppose.

It's easy to get irritated when they're Twitter promoting games as being in stock at small retailers, yet customers that paid for the same games weeks ago still don't have them in hand. I'm sure some has to do with what's shipping together, but it still sucks.

VA-11 HALL-A's soundtrack is such a huge part of why I love the game that not including it is a big deal breaker for me. I guess I'll just get the regular versions and save some money.

Are there likely to be any surprise games on the 6th, 13th and 20th of July?

Three this Friday is gonna put a dent in my wallet.

Huh. Really glad someone asked about the CE Protective Case for Va-11 Hall-A. I asked a few weeks ago and (at the time) the word from support was that it would fit. Guess I can remove one of these from my cart.
Don't take it too hard.....my questions on here are being ignored by LRG as well (see above). :)
Yeah, I didn't really take it too hard despite how my post comes across. I'm sure they had valid reasons for not being able to answer at the time or it slipped through the cracks. I was just a bit frustrated after checking throughout the day yesterday.

This 100%, I was being fun with you. I wasn't mocking you at all. I couldn't answer your questions and didn't want you to feel like you were being ignored, but wanted to say that in a way that was more fun than "I can't answer your questions".

are they going to limited printed?

Ask Josh on Twitter, if there's a good answer to that question he'll be the one to give it, and he's not active here.

It's all good, bro. ^^ Maybe I'm just a little on edge because it can sometimes be frustrating that the information flow is so slow. But probably can't be helped.

I just want the coasters to be waterproof so they can actually be used more than once.
