Limited Run Games - physical runs of digital games

LRG

Q) Any chance you guys will slow down to one release a month?
A)No, not possible to sustain at that level.
Q)How about pre-orders?
A)With how unpredictable manufacturing and certification can be, we're not keen on doing many.

So yea

So basically flood the release schedule since they still sell out, so why slow down?

Aparently doing 4 @ 2500 ea and having a bloodbath is better than 2 @ 5000+ ea.

Gotta keep the hype train moving!

I think that LRG said that Sony was pretty reasonable with the low-print runs, which is interesting and contradictory to some previous things I've read about them. Maybe you just have to talk to the right people? Could have something to do with publishing 2-4 simultaneous releases and breaking production costs between them?

I like that LRG is producing a steady stream of games, but I don't know if I'll keep buying them all. I've already started to cut out the PS4 games where there is a Vita game. I feel that Vita will be a real system for collectors at some point.

Wish that LRG could extend this somehow to PS3 and even 3DS tittles. Would love to see some 3DS games on the LRG roster.

A few things to bring up!

First, what happened with your shipments banditwolf? Is there something I need to do or look up for you?

Second, Aqua Kitty was signed early on at a small print size due to several factors, like us being still new to the scene, a not highly requested title (despite high praise, even myself (Douglas) loving it) and well no and, that's it!

It was actually signed at a lower print size but we raised it within our power. We are also limiting copies and we are going to enforce that. Aqua Kitty and the other title people may or may not of guessed will be the 27th. The 20th is a PS4 only title and much higher print size.

February has a title for Vita I know Klown wants and may finally respect us for. It's 5,000 copies, I think...

You can never gain Klown's respect, just less of his wrath. Haha.

Edit: Element had an issue as well where he got a Shantae soundtrack instead of a game.

I think that was element who got a wrong item. I just had the ordering system freeze up on me with Oddworld and I got screwed. Barely managed to get one of each in the evening battle.

Oh okay, well if he makes a ticket we will get that fixed! I'm interviewing two more people today for customer support to get that moving even faster.

Also need that shipping manager filled before the 20th, woof...

Ha. I was going to say something similar but you beat me to it... Unless of course you start printing the kinds of games that would fail ESRB ratings. Then he'd be your best friend.
