Stupid me I just realized that there is an option to choose a box (at $1.99) for shipping instead of the poly mailer for LRG games. I will be doing this in the future and would highly advise others to do the same. While my copy of Thimbleweed came in OK, I can see how these mailers will be a nightmare at one point in time that I will not want to deal with.

Just to expand on this. All collectors editions are already shipped in a box so there is no need to add one for those, only standard edition games.

I didn't get a card with mine. Boo! I hope I didn't throw away the package and I can double check but all I found was a game inside when I opened it.

As for Shikhondo...any idea when it will go on sale?

Not sure exactly. I want to say in less than an hour, 9am CST. But I'm not 100% on that.

Will the owner of this website be updating the physical list of switch games please....this has been so helpful but without it being updated I am having trouble during the month of June...thx

The OP of this thread said he wouldn't be around for a while due to financial constraints.

I wouldn't expect the first post to be changed for quite a while.

There is another database site that someone created with an excellent listing which gets updated regularly - I have the site bookmarked at home, but I am typing this from work. Will post the URL later today unless someone else can assist.

I don’t think it’s been updated in a while either.

Pre-ordered my copy of Shikhondo. I wasn't going to get the CE as it looked meh...but $35? Seems like a good deal plus it had the free shipping like the previous game. It's not too expensive and that's a price I can afford! Next up...Night Trap!

By focusing on the online exclusives...yeah, I'm not getting as many games as before, but it's easier on my wallet...plus I know how they tend to shoot up in price down the road.

Do you guys get charged immediately when you order from playasia? I was for owlboy CE, but haven’t been for dimension Drive or shikhando

Edit: I think I figured it out. I used PayPal for owlboy but have entered my card infor for the other 2, so I should be charged around the time they ship

Limbo and Inside are coming to Switch (digitally). They have released physically in a combo pack for both PS4 and Xbox One. Nothing confirmed, but I would not be surprised if a physical Switch version is released.

Two really great games, by the way.

My copy of Thimbleweed Park (standard release) arrived today! Thankfully it arrived undamaged as they are using the same kind of bubble mailers that Best Buy uses...and I have received some damaged titles from BB in the past. There was a trading card in the bag (Thimbleweed card) that was unfortunately bent. But, that was not advertised as coming with it so I am not going to complain. The game is great though!

How many cards were in the deck?

It wasn't a deck. Just one lone card. I saw some ebay auctions where people got a different card than mine. Mine is numbered #202 and is basically a picture of the front of the box art for the game.

LRG makes trading cards for their games that people collect. There are Gold and Silver of ever card. Here is their internal
List

If you buy 2 games or a CE you get a box for free so keep that in mind. Also, save up those tickets that came with the game. If you get 40 you get one free game from them

One thing that I find quite odd is how LRG could not print the release number on the spine. I find this particularly odd because the two (released) SRG titles I own both have the release numbers on the spine. I wonder if this was something that Nintendo refused to let happen for the NA releases (LRG) and were ok with it in EU (SRG)? Does anyone know anything more about this? Not a huge deal obviously, but just curious as the release numbers on the spine are kind of cool when you are going for a continuing set.

Nintendo of America has different layout guidelines vs Nintendo of Europe aka NofA doesn’t want a number on the spine.

Although I'm not sure why someone would, it's an awful game. Thanks for nothing, 2k Games.

$40? Are they insane?? $30 would be much more reasonable. But eh, I'll just buy it secondhand somewhere down the road.
