    Their games are mostly bought by resellers just to sell off later on who never play them missing the point if a limited copy of a Digital onky game. They cost a Fortune to get if you live outside US thanks to shiping costs and import tax. They made games like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection and Street of Rage 4 harder to buy Boxed copys of in US whlist in Europe they was just sold Boxed online and in Retail Stores.

      It was all the scalpers faults and the bots. Limited run isn't perfect. I buy from them a lot. I've had problems from them and I still buy from them because of the physical games. But shantae 3ds games was sold out because of the scalpers and the bots. But I understand. It is an opinion. Everyone has one. I just wanted to comment and say mine.

    Limited Run just took the business model of underground labels and ran with it. With a lot of labels, they might have 40-50k fans for a group - but they'll intentionally sell vinyl records and CDs in short runs of 100-500-1k so that fans eat them up as fast as possible. If you've heard of bands like Spiritbox, that is why its so hard to get the majority of their earlier stuff - because its always limited and sold out due to intentionally limiting quantities. I'd hate it, if it wasn't a smart way to get a return. Sadly, much like Limited Run's releases - a lot of these are eaten up by scalpers who resell them on sites like discogs. You just can't escape the scalpers, eve.

    Ordering direct from them is pointless. It's always more expensive and always late. Their business seems to revolve around providing things to buy for their whale customers who will buy any $3 shovelware title as long as it's limited and physical.
    I'm also kind of annoyed about hearing about the person fired for their social media use. I don't really care and I'm sick of it getting spammed on limited run tweets. I think the reasons for the firing are stupid and I think anyone who works at a place like this should avoid social media if they have any opinions stronger than strawberry icecream is better than vanilla. Anyone who presses their luck can expect bad things and they need to stop equating freedom of speech with freedom of all consequences.

    I mean, North Carolina employers have incredible unilateral hiring/firing power thanks to "right to work" laws, so tbh I don't much care about the firing "controversy."
    But I can definitely attest to the shit wait times. I get it for some things like ultimate editions, but I'm going on almost a year waiting on items that were in-stock at time of ordering.

    I was able to get a copy of Scott Pilgrim: Complete Edition in April from them and I forget if I pre-ordered it (but I wouldn’t be surprised if I did). But I also forgot why people hold ire towards LRG until just recently. Yeesh. A little skeptical towards getting a physical copy of Hi-Fi Rush, the Star Wars Battlefront remasters, and Shantae Advance if this is all a common practice.

That's just one example. I've got a bunch of other pre orders I'm still waiting on. That said i do get them................eventually. Strictly Limited Games is pretty bad too but dammit their collectors editions are actually worth waiting for. I've got nothing bad to say about them. Love their releases and their quality collectors editions. Even the boxes are amazing with the magnetic latches. Good stuff. Lol

  • @vincenzomottola7778

    One of the only good things Limited Run has ever done IMO is LRG3 (their nostalgia bait E3-like event). Basically the E3 of indie games.
    And they even gave WayForward the necessary funds to complete Shantae Advance, which btw, looks like it could have been a GBA classic had it been released. They're also a digital publisher, and I find funny that This Way Madness Lies (LRG published and first revealed at LRG3 2023) came out digitally before a physical pre-order date would be announced.

    Strictly limited games is worse! They take 2 years to ship games. They lie about promotions ie free game with purchase. They are also under financial distress so (according the German law) you can demand a refund before the ship sinks with all your money.

    • @JTWarnerJT
      @JTWarnerJT Před 5 měsíci

      I've never had a problem with Strictly Limited. I've got 15 of their collectors editions and a couple more pre ordered. They made more cartridges of Bite the Bullet when there was an update they had missed and even though i missed signing up for a copy they still sent me one when i contacted them about it. Not at all disagreeing with you just my experience has been pretty positive so far with them. They absolutely have horrendous shipping times but I've always gotten my games and their customer service has always been spot on. They even have the production update page which at the very least gives me something to kinda look to for answers.

      That’s good you had a pleasant experience ! but I feel your an exception. If you look up reviews on them, or look at peoples comments on social media you can see most people aren’t happy with them. Plus when a company moves into smaller offices and constantly has sales every week and basically are begging for money…. when is that a sign things are going well? I just don’t feel it’s safe to have money tied up with them for 2 years in a collectors edition.
