Let's Get Physical (Physical)

[importaku]

That's a good shout - I think that publisher's stuff gets listed on Limited Run sometimes, but it'll be much cheaper buying direct in the UK. I can't tell if the game is any good or not from the trailer but I'll likely take a chance too.

Loop Hero is meant to be pretty decent, and the pre-order starts tomorrow at Special Reserve over here.

I have watched all i can find on youtube but from what i have seen of it the game is totally something that pushes all my buttons it reminds me of game centre cx on the DS with it's totally fake games but presented well enough that they almost feel like they existed in an alternate reality as arcade releases. I ended up preordering direct from their own store roughly about £30 including shipping from europe so not too bad. Just hoping it's not some totally broken mess on release there's always the risk but i remain hopeful, not expecting the switch version to have the same graphical quality of the ps4/5 trailer but if it's close to that i'll be satisfied it'll probably be a bit more jaggy around the edges but we'll see.

This gives a better look ign did a preview of the demo build

Bloody bell, is it finally coming out? Played this at EGX in 2019, along with SOR 4.

Yeah sod the physical for now just give me a digital version at least. I just googled and Jan 20th, apparently. Man has it been a long wait for this one.

They did a great job with the art and packaging. I really like it.

Amazing what can be done with clipart these days!

One to look out for, I'd say.

Funnily enough I was watching a video just earlier today listing out best metroidvanias from the past year, and that came up!

Couple of releases of note from LRG coming up shortly - first up the Valis collection, which features the PCE versions of 1-3, but not 4, as a few people have rightly highlighted. Unless they're also going to do a digital release I believe this will be the only way to get the localised versions of these? Also wow, that reversible US cover art...

This one I mention somewhat begrudgingly, given Konami are farming physical releases like this out to third parties while focusing their own efforts for the series on mining its assets to sell off as NFTs. Gross.

A huge price difference between that & amazon japan, this link has the price they are wanting but it doesn't include taxes or shipping costs.

the strictly limited one works out at 439.99 euros (approx £365). The full set on amazon jpn works out at 44,973 yen (approx £288) and neither of them include the shipping costs so that's just for the set on it's own the strictly one does come with some flyers & a bookmark & a background piece of card looking something so that might be worth an extra £77 maybe

If you’re EU based, there will probably not be much in it though. I believe those guys ship from Germany so tax will be zero and shipping probably reasonable for EU folks.

If you’re U.K. based though you might as well go with Amazon JP.

yup post brexit adds alsorts of euro delights now when buying stuff.
