That was my very 1st ever ps2 import game used to love it's quirkyness, shame it's locked to next gen but understandable as it is a playstation title would have loved to see it on switch.

That's cool box art, like how they updated the original one here. Reasonable price too.

Dead Cells: Return to Castlevania standard edition pre-orders available at House of Bezos and other places, August general release.

So it appears that VideoGamesPlus have gotten their stock of the LRG releases of Espgaluda 2 & Dodonpachi Resurrection but here I am still sitting here waiting for my copies that I ordered direct from LRG

Is this normal practice?

I know LRG are slow as **** to release anything but surely passing games to re-sellers when direct orders aren't fulfilled is pretty ****ty practice

Have you ordered the normal or limited edition from LRG? Normal editions come out a few months before the limited.

Normal for DDP but I did get the Arcade Cab thing with my Espa 2

I've had my delivery of Espa 2 (Normal version) delivered a few weeks ago from LRG. I have a DDP on order as well (normal) no progress on being sent yet according to LRG.

I actually just found an Email from LRG that went to my spam folder & by all accounts the LE & Steelbook versions (including any that come with the arcade peripheral) of Espa 2 and DDP will just ship sometime in Quarter 3

Bloody long wait still then

Another of my wanted physicals gets a miracle release never expected in a million years happy game would be given a physical release as it's a really obscure one. Because it's a small short kind of game they are bundling it together with a game called pilgrims but i'll be happy with just happy game on it's own if that's all they were offering. The art & sound in that game are super unsettling it's a really unique horror well not really a horror but it looks like one.

Goes on sale on june 15th

LRG's physical release of Radiant Silvergun being delayed to include soundtrack extras on the cart.

Not quite sure why that couldn't have come in a later game update OTA, but hey.

My regular editions of Espgaluda II and DDP DFK are both still at “Ordered” status, pretty sure I ordered both first day of pre-order as well. Getting sick to death of these limited print companies.

Seems like more and more it’s not worth bothering with limited run when they release these nicer editions for japan.

[briareos_kerensky]

Yeah, LRG are a victim of their own success: they have to continuously announce new titles to collect enough money to pay for previously announced titles, and the amount of titles they have to do eats away at their quality.
Same thing with Strictly Limited, although to a lesser degree.
