I'm just surprised they'd announce a brand new game on Discord.
I will preorder my copy of Oceanhorn this friday. Togehter with Slime San and the other Switch game what will released this friday.
I don't care if i'm one of the first 5000 owners of Oceanhorn who will get it in the next few weeks. Because i will get the game anyway not until the other two games are available in a few months.
That will save a lot of shipping costs for me if i buy two (or this friday three) games.
At the moment i decided that i will order every Switch game from LRG games if they stay with the two weeks pre order thing and i can order two games together.

if the date for Musynx is official then they're doing the short notice thing again
Regarding the bonus game for full collections:
"Just going to clear this up right now.
The full-set idea is for each platform.
You don't collect for Vita, well then this doesn't apply to you for example. Did you collect all our PS4? Then we have something for you.
It's also a game that no one is going to care about in the grand scheme of things and an internal project. We aren't going to make it something like "Bastion" it's literally a game the people not collecting full sets would have skipped anyway. This is to reward full-set people for sticking with us through every release.
Again, this is literally a game people would just skip if it was a normal release. I know that for a fact.
We are also going to take into account people that are missing Breach & Clear most likely. I already know people going on quests to buy games they missed to get this game even though it's not a big game, so we aren't going back on this. You still have time to catch up and this isn't even happening until late next year at the earliest."
I'm really not against the idea. People should be rewarded for buying Mecho Tales and Plague Road.

Yep, called it. It's a neat little bonus for people that stuck it out, but it seems it'll mostly be for the value/bragging rights aspect, and I would've rather saved probably close to a grand not buying many of those games.
This statement totally reassures me :)
Xenon Valkyrie+ is an easy skip for me. Kingdom I'll get, Musynx probably (even though the track used for the trailer tried to put me off :3).
Valhalla I might wait for a Switch version that's probably coming down the line... or I'll get one that I won't open to trade up when time comes.

Don't think there's been anything else since then?
Nice! The Switch version also has the same anime girl image inside the cover art, but expanded. I was kinda sad only the cart had the cat girl on it... Now I get both options!
both covers are available on switch, the blue one was a first print run but the catgirl one is the main cover now if you buy a new copy which i don't think will be available for a couple months
edit: i didn't realise all 3 games are pre-orders this week
also super hydorah CE for Vita is still instock, is this the longest a game of any SKU has been instock?

Oh I knew about the cover, but just didn't want 2 Switch copies, just 1 copy for each system.
I also didn't know they would be open pre-orders. Now I don't need to wake up at 7 for it! I'm guessibg it's a deal with the publisher?
I'm not traditionally into anime, or whatever. I honestly don't even play a lot of Japanese games anymore (though I was pretty obsessed with them when I was younger), but I wanted to chime in and say if you're a hardcore rhythm game fan like I am, but don't traditionally like anime style stuff, do not sleep on Mucinex (Musynx). It's quite good.
Doh, yeah I made a point to be present for this one and it's a preorder.
Yeah but I'm not sure there's many copies left that ship out soon. It'll go to open pre-order after that.
Yes, open till July 11. I still want it too and haven't had reason to place an order yet.
What, how did I miss that. Welp, hope that's easy to track down. I'll probably grab the Vita version from LRG while at it, too.

Oh yes please!! It finally surfaces... and with very limited time for Vita games (I hope it was already contracted but not announced till XSEED made it official).
Oh there is a just a small window left. I thought it was over already.
Shows how disingenuous Atlus's excuse was.
Yeah I thought it ended too.
I'm guessing Atlus is only doing physical PS4 for dancing, then?
It's kinda disconcerting that we got this deadline and then two companies (Atlus and XSEED) are announcing titles that would make the deadline as digital-only.
Anyway yeah, LRG get on it. Both that and Fate please!
I guess that's what happened to my Everspace: Galactic Edition preorder that I've had on Amazon for months that was suddenly canceled in the early hours of this morning. WTF. Well, at least I have an idea of what the CE might have (assuming they do one and it's not just a standard release) and I'll have a shot at getting it. Still, seems kinda weird to have a whole preorder page on Amazon, GameStop, and Best Buy since at least April only to pull it a couple of months later and do a release for LRG. I suppose I don't really need the game as I have the PC version from backing the game on Kickstarter, but something about this still seems off. Don't get me wrong, I'll still most likely attempt to grab the PS4 release as it's a great game and ridiculously good looking, but I just had to comment on what I saw as a strange series of events.
I'm all about those 2064 & VA-11 CEs this coming Friday. And I'm also down to go for a complete Switch set. I can't stress enough how much I love the limited preorder Windows for Switch games.
One last thing; is it just me or is there some passive-aggressive animosity between the Vita and Switch limited physical copy communities? Anyone else picking up on that?
i don't mean this post to be console warring before i get reported for it
but i'd say the physical switch community is too rabid, they seem to demand a physical for everything and then when it doesn't pan out just exactly how they wanted it with part of the game/bundle being a seperate download they just end up screaming about how they're not going to be buying the game at all now
with the Vita physical community i've noticed that people will just tend to say they'll be waiting for a good sale on the games that go digital only and i don't really remember people complaining about the optional downloads with the physical version aside from the Blazblue game which i think was chronophantasma and the LRG version if Ys which was a more acceptable complaint seeing as it required pretty much the entire game to be downloaded
