Order 1596 here. It's gonna be gone very soon.
[Edit] Apparently Shopify starts counting order numbers from 1000? In that case, I'd have just missed out on the artbook, but there's still plenty of stock left for everyone else.
LRG help them set up a shopify account so people will be buying through their servers instead of through the SRG servers
Now that I come to think of it : I checked out at 19:01. It probably starts at #1000 but don't quote me on that... You'd be good for the artbook but Delusibeta wouldn't. Or maybe a thousand people were there before me but I doubt it ^^
Funny how their normal website is still down.

Now down to 96 copies left. (The good ol' "attempt to add 999999 copies to the cart to show how many copies are left" trick works)
Do note that some more copies have been left over to sell in a future date, presumably after the URL is switched to point to this new Shopify based site.

What a bloody mess, luckily I just browsed this topic and managed to get a copy, #2430, 16 left.
Migration to switch still going strong :

Who got StrictlyLimited's "Knights of Pen and Paper"? I sure did, looks really charming. 33% of second batch still available after it went live two hours ago, so that's nice and comfortable. ^^
I passed on that one. I never heard of it previously and after watching several gameplay videos, figured it wasn't for me. I've really cut back on buying all sorts of releases unless I actually want to play it.
It's nice that it's not a mad rush for those who want it though ^_^

Got Knights of Pen and Paper as well, looks like a fun little game.
On a side note, I really like what SLG are doing. Their selection has been pretty good so far. By staying small and doing only one release per month, they've been able to focus on those games, run interesting interviews with the small developers and keep us updated on the state of game production. Also really appreciated how they dealt with the misprinted "Guns, Gore & Cannoli" cover (I know that it's a classic marketing trick to overcompensate after an error, positively surprise customers and get them to like you even more than if the error never had happened …. buuuut it still worked on me ;)

Knights of Pen and Paper is still available. I don't know if I'm picking it; impressions seem to be all over the place between good, mediocre and shite.
Did anyone buy Ruiner from SRG, paid by Paypal, and still have their payment marked as pending because it hasn't been taken yet? Or just me? No idea what that's about. I have a proper order on the site and everything.

There's no good reason for them to. Its more of a preference, on my part, rooted in the convenience of not getting hit by customs.
Well, the likelihood of that ever happening is really, really small.
New Super Rare Games Switch release is Shelter Generations: http://www.nintendolife.com/news/20..._wild_new_physical_edition_on_nintendo_switch
I've seen that happen sometimes if you pay with an ECheck (this seems to mainly happen if you've had any issues with Paypal pulling cash from your Bank and it getting bounced back. They put in your payment as an ECheck and it doesn't pay out until that amount has been transferred to Paypal by your bank), delays payment until Paypal has pulled it directly from your bank (3-5 biz days).
Was going to bite, but can't get myself to fork over the nearly $47 to get one to the US.
They changed it a while ago, it's annoyingly easy to miss now.
When you select your payment method, look for a small button labeled "coupon" in the bottom left corner under the payment options.

Button disappears when you have weekly specials in your cart. Can't use coupons on those.
Cross posting from the Limited Run thread, but several Reset members are running a Discord channel for limited physical releases that also served as the base for migrating members from the original Limited Run thread on the old forum. Doug and SuperNESJoe from Limited Run are members in the group as well!
Did you happen to receive one of the art booklets, too? I heard the actual number for the game was randomized compared to how the art order numbers were honored for customers.
Its based on the order number, not the numbers on the box.
No unfortunately I did not. I ordered really late though so it does seem like the numbers are randomized.
