I ordered myself one of the Switch collector's editions after they finished updating their site, it took them an unusually long time to actually get the listings ready so I could decide what I wanted, like at least half an hour for individual listings to slowly go up and then upload media.

Oh sure, the day after I place an order for Vengeful Guardian from Pix'N Love, LRG open preorders.

Argh.

I called it earlier, LRG pre-orders have a real bad habit of showing up not long after the Pix'n Love pre-orders.

Same exact thing happened to me. It’s bs. They number the copies so you run the risk of missing out if you don’t order… but they’re also not up front about whether it will be available elsewhere. I emailed and asked to cancel. Very frustrating

I'll be keeping my PNL preorder. I paired Vengeful Guardian with an order for Nefasto's Misadventure. I don't believe that'll be released physically outside of France. Too avant-garde.

P.S. - We Love Katamari is up on AmazonNA.

@Magician that's a really good price for Katamari. I'm beyond excited for it!

I'm looking to grab this as well.
The Amazon NA listing won't ship to the UK, so I'll still be looking to get it somewhere, be it import, or a possible EU listing as Play-Asia indicates may happen.

@RupeeClock I would be very, very surprised if it didn't get an EU physical version, especially since Klonoa got one.

If anyone can't wait for Hogwart's Legacy in July, it appears as though Spells & Secrets will be getting a Switch physical release in June?

I do not know if anyone know about this but I just found out about this game from Red Art Games:

https://www.redartgames.com/presentation?rp=heidelberg-1693

HEIDELBERG 1693

Maybe I missed if it was announced here or in an article. PS4 and PS5 version already sold out. Only the Switch versions remain.

I ordered it as it looks just like the games I love

(Feels like old news, but perhaps not?)

Humble Games will be releasing Moonscars physically.

@neonpizza I'd say average production time for LRG standard editions is six months. Sometimes longer if a release is post-patched early enough before the build is sent to Nintendo for cartridge production. Collector Editions, probably closer to sixteen months due to those requiring multiple orders from China.

I've heard Baten Kaitos I & II is up on P-A.

However, like the Etrian Odyssey Collection, the Japanese versions don't have English.

It's unknown if BK I & II will get a western release. Since Bamco have removed the English dub from both games in order to fit them on an 8 GB cartridge, I assume this will be a Bamco Store exclusive...at the very least. But who knows.

Edit: Looks like the BK I & II has confirmed English subtitles and menus.

Yes, for orders that include collector's editions, items can take much longer to manufacture and ship.
For reference, on Jan 28th 2022 I placed an order which included collector's editions of Monster Sanctuary, Astalon Tears of the Earth, and Gunvolt Chronicles Luminous Avengers IX 2.
That order shipped a few weeks ago and finally arrived today, nearly 13 months later.

That's an extreme case though. All individual listings on LRG are subject to delays due to the developer or publishing possibly wanting to issue further software updates for an ideal physical release.
Celeste and Monster Sanctuary are good examples of this, they delayed their prints to get more content on the game card.

For ordering Vengeful Guardian Moonrider specifically, at least a standard edition, it's not clear when LRG are expected to start shipping items, but Pix'n Love Publishing have given an estimate of Spring 2023.
LRG is running open pre-orders, which is manufacturing items to demand, whereas Pix'n Love are manufacturing a set quantity which may indicate that the items are already scheduled for or in manufacture.

Dug up a few days ago by yours truly, but now it's official.
