Why they are still doing 2 per customer is beyond me... even shit Kemco should be 1 per customer, at least it would stay up 5 minutes instead of 2
Kemco games don't set the gaming zeitgeist on fire. They've had a tendency to move a bit on the slow side in the past if memory serves. Being able to move the desired number of product in a timely manner, or beyond that expectation, is a win business wise. I understand where your coming from though, and I agree with you generally. For the more anticipated titles to come, a strict one copy per account is best for the fans that actually want it.
Every vita game in the past couple months has sold out in less than 2 minutes each batch, whether its kemco or spelunky.... they wont have any issue selling out the remaining vita titles and would be beneficial to people who want them if they made the remaining ones 1 per customer so more people have a chance to get their hands on them. I havent had an issue yet, but I know that day is coming soon
You can count me in on having a foreboding feeling of missing out on something worth owning.
Edit:
Just realized I now have 45 tickets. It took a long time to get to that point. 40 is the requirement for a free game right?

If I miss out on Fata Morgana because it sells out or something I'll be EXTREMELY disappointed
I was just thinking, are we gonna be able to use hold orders for these last 20 games? Because normally it happens when games are still in production but obviously LRG are gonna have them all in stock. I don't really want to have to pay $15 per order for these last few :(
There's no way they'll ship orders in less time than it takes them to acknowledge a hold request. So I'd guess there's a decent chance? I think the 'no in stock stuff' rule is just there so people don't make them hold Vita cases and such (...still waiting on my held Vita case, I don't even remember what color I ordered anymore...).
Welcome to my daily struggle to learn when they'll ship our games. My ticket from two weeks ago said they'd be shipping shortly, I guess it's time to open another one.
I asked them a couple days ago:
So they should start shipping things out this week? Hopefully?
I had a similar response to a ticket about a fortnight ago like Shiz, wouldn't hold your breath for them going out soon.
OK so I got an email for confirmation of my order is being prepared to ship. But they had the wrong address. I emailed them back regarding this issue. I hope that it won't ship to the wrong address >.>. They mentioned that you don't need to create a separate ticket if You reply to the email. &&
Do you know why? They prepared labels for all those orders with the "Dulles VA" address we used for the service.
Sigh..That Dulles thing created more problems than I thought.
Got two shipping notifications for hold orders as well. Yay, hostage situation prevented! ^^
But am I correct in assuming that these will take a loooong time to actually ship out? At least for internationals it usually takes around two weeks anyway if I'm not mistaken, and in my case there's the "Dust" CE in one of'em which is still listed as "shipping soon".
Would be so cool to have the stuff in hand for my 40th birthday mid-April (would even wait opening the packages until then :)) but I shouldn't count on it to go out in time, right?

You mean this "shipment has left facility and is en route to carrier"? I have that too but I THINK this just means the label has been printed and it could take a few days or weeks for them to actually go out. Please someone correct me if I'm mistaken.
EDIT: "on its way to carrier" pretty clearly says that the carrier doesn't actually have it yet, I guess ^^

Just went through my list of stuff that I've had emails about too, my last shipped order was missing Thumper which they said must have just missed the deadline to go out (it was never on the shipment email but my account showed it with a tracking code), that's missing from the shipment email notices again so I'll have to contact them about that - looks like the same thing has happened with Saturday Morning RPG this time around too (tracking code on the website, not included in shipment schedule email).
Jak CE is very similar in that it has a tracking code next to it in my order history but obviously they're not ready to be sent out yet.

Still waiting for my first order from Limited Run games. I got Shantae and the Pirate's Curse for Switch. I'm confused why the tracking information they gave me doesn't seem very specific though. All it's been saying since it shipped is "Scheduled Delivery Please check back later for scheduled delivery." It doesn't say where it shipped from, where it's at now, and when it's expected to arrive. Been like that since 2/26.
It probably hasn't shipped, just a label printed and ready.
I have received three shipment notifications at once (Yay ! \o/) but after combing through my orders and comparing them to the shipping notice I'm missing 2x Saturday Morning RPG and 1x Jak and Daxter. It's really unfortunate, and judging by your post this anomaly looks quite common :/
I've created a ticket as soon as I saw this. Waited long enough to not have three games missing.
If people on a computer or phone can't figure out what time it is in ET then there's no helping them.
It's not figuring out the current time that's the problem but rather being aware of the beginning of daylight saving time in general, especially since it's a couple of weeks later in Europe.
On the other hand, many Americans will be just as confused when ordering from SLG, Red Art or SuRG, so it probably balances itself out. :)
