Celeste has been in production long enough for me to regret getting the PS4 version over the Switch version.
Could always just pick one up later.

When they went up I grabbed a PS4 CE and then added a switch standard in case I ever buy a NS. Finally bought a switch last week, so perfect timing :)
And here I was, thinking that STAR WARS week would be a break week for everything else.
Waaaaay too many releases. :(

They are releasing Genesis 8-button controllers and Saturn Controllers. Both have a USB version and another one compatible with their original consoles.
Apparently nigh identical to legit Saturn pads. Just take a look at the Amazon reviews:
...
Oh, that's new. Apparently after a month or 2 of use people are snapping their d-pads.
*sighs* Retro-bit continues to be trash. They tricked countless people with this, I was planning on grabbing several controllers from this "official" line but luckily hadn't gotten to it yet...
Thats for model 1. The new model shouldn't have that problem
And how would anybody discern which model they have?
I'm not sure why you'd believe what Retrobit says, to date, they've never made anything of quality. The reason people trusted these is they had Sega's approval. Yet here we have broken controllers, and the Genesis Mini shipped with broken controllers too (no idea who actually made those though).
Battle Princess Madelyn is getting a physical release. If I understand correctly, the Switch version is the "Royal Edition" that is a director's cut of the arcade mode and it doesn't have a story mode. The PS4 version is the same as original Switch version with arcade and story mode but different from the "Royal Edition".
Err, so the "Royal Edition" has less content? That's good for me I guess, I Kickstarted this and I don't think the Switch version was available through that (maybe they had options at some point, but fuck the hundreds of development updates I've gotten for backing a couple Kickstarter's).
I'm confused. We still don't have our Kickstarter backer copies, right? I lose track of this stuff.
But the Switch version is different here.. weird.
They explain the changes in this blog post: https://limitedrungames.com/blogs/news/battle-princess-madelyn-gets-a-limited-run-for-the-ps4-switch
" So in short, Royal Edition is a directors cut of arcade mode. It's a few levels longer and much more diverse than the original game's arcade mode with many changes to the play style. 10 Levels of Action 11 bosses to fight including 3 of them being completely new. "
The Royal Edition is basically a different game, exclusive to Switch for the time being, and KS backers won't get it.
There is a Japanese physical release on Switch of the original version that should be the same as the PS4 version that LRG is releasing.
I was hoping both versions would be two week open preorder, and not just Switch.
Weird indeed. I just read a backer update that just popped into my inbox. I have various negative opinions of this all, but whatever. I found this useful bit of info:
I guess I dodged a bullet because I backed the PS4 copy and I like "pointless fetch quests" and "story modes".
Now what I'd REALLY like to hear is that the PS4 physical copy has ALL the patches burned-in, because I hear there were quite a few.

They're really taking their time shipping out River City Girls for the ps4. First it was planned for the end of september/beginning of this month and now they're barely shipping out the switch versions :I Wish they were a bit more open about stuff, especially on the website.
Yeah that's interesting, and includes LEs, too. I doubt IF will ever say why, but I am curious! I don't see Iffy's Store lasting long now, and that's a shame.
Just like all will be banned from even being mentioned here going forward.
Probably, which is why we are being vague andnot naming names :x
my guess is they're games do pretty well digitally and they can put out a physical copy without worrying about a bunch of junk being leftober.
NISA still runs their own store but all their limited editions are all pretty dang limited these days.
Yeah IF prob took a loss on their leftovers. Some been sitting there a while. Only the first Neptune games they put out, did they sell out immediately.
NISA is a little different, since they are like LRG and helping out as a storefront. I'm glad that after Gust went to Koei-Tecmo, that NISA was able to sell their LEs again. As long as someone is giving the option to sell these, then at least the option is there. It's nice to see LRG being a similar storefront, and selling for other publishers.
According to the dev it has the latest NA patch on disc.
Anyone else waiting on Rivercity Girls, Luminous Avenger iX, or Timespinner physicals? Should I expect these to ship in november?
Also, were Va11-hala and Cuphead still getting a Limited Run release for Switch?

EvilGizmo the LRG website has been giving me trouble this morning. Both from my Android phone and latest Chrome on PC. When checking out, it says a text has been sent, but I don't receive any text. Seems like I can just bypass that prompt with the X and continue anyway. Then when attempting to pay, I had to refresh multiple times for it to finally show the credit card details iframe. Luckily the order went in without issue at that point. But if this was for a time-sensitive purchase I'd be PISSED.
Everyone is waiting on these I believe. Check your order, they have added a neat status column for each item.
Those games were hinted at but never fully confirmed I believe. I want to say VA-11 Hall-A's Japanese release has English support (at least one reviewer confirms)

It sounds like you're using the Shopify QuickPay feature (where they send you a code via text), unfortunately we have no access to that apps backend, it's purely shopify. Their support team might be able to help get it straightened out or removed so that you can re-enable it though.
I missed out on Battle Princess Madelyn for PS4 both times today. Granted, I was late to the party by about 10 minutes each time but damn. I noticed a note that said something about orders over 30 units.....are they seriously letting people order that many? They used to note things like "1 per order" or "2 per order" so this was the first time I'd seen this. That can't be right, can it? For a game getting a total run of 1,500 units?
Possibility: They were probably worried about PS4 copies sitting to long when Switch is an option on top of being a preorder.
That stuff is so irritating so I've basically stopped finally. I think I'm out unless they do more M2 games. It feels great.
You definitely seem happier. I'm happy for you. See you when the next Shot Trigger drops.
I still dig the games but just lament that the market for PS4 preorders isn't there. I've fallen away from Switch so it works out better.
Definitely looking forward to some Shot Triggers!
And Ikaruga, whenever Nicalis does a physical print of that?
I never really got the hype on that one, plus I have the GameCube and DC versions (at least). People seem to like it though.
And yet, Costume Quest 2 sits. Sure it has twice as many copies, but it's a far more popular title than BPM. Sometimes the demand doesn't make a lot of sense.
I'm thinking the rush on the PS4 BPM is because the Switch version is some screwy half release.
i thought the switch version was supposed to be superior and the PS4 version was barebones? i know in the replies to the LRG tweet the other day the dev said he would probably try and port it to PS4 in the future
Other way around. PS4 version has story mode and Switch is just a "streamlined version" without that.
A project update was sent out explaining it to Kickstarter backers. I did not read the entire thing... But my TLDR impression is that the dev didn't like all the extra features that were added to the game due to the Kickstarter, so he made a "director's cut", that removed everything except an arcade mode, and that mode has been tweaked around deleting useless add-in's. So the Switch version is less than half the PS4 version...?
Feel free to read this wall of text and tell me I'm wrong:
The one thing that makes the Royal Edition seem less appealing than the Kickstarter Edition to me is the lack of widescreen support. I'm guessing it won't happen, but just having the option to switch between 4:3 and 16:9 for the Royal Edition would make a lot more attractive in my eyes.
Royal edition sounds way better. I dropped the game when it came out because it was an aimless, bloated game that just wasn't fun after a couple hours of constantly not knowing where to go. This sounds much more focused and fun. Can't wait to try it out.
Sounds like the main game is (another) one I should not have Kickstarted.
Just my opinion of course, but yeah this Royal edition combined with what the dev said about why he made it sounds right up my alley.
Wait, are all IF games banned from talking here?
Honestly I've gotten so many updates on the KS that I no longer care and will probably never play it anyways. I'm done with KS (not b/c of this one).
I can imagine. Didn't back it but yeah I feel you on that in general. Only game I ever backed was the failed kickstarter for the Eternal Darkness sequel years ago. I was done after that bs.
Close to it. More and more keep showing up on the banned list. It is strange others are ok though, despite having similar content in it. I think it depends if people complain about them in threads.
