Got that one pre-ordered, I'm looking forward to it.
I was expecting it to be published through Limited Run Games, but a wider retail release is awesome.
That's interesting because 505 games already do physical publication.
I guess they didn't want to do a physical release for something in their catalogue, but they got approached about it anyway.
Nothing worse than when a physical copy of a game is only available via an overpriced collector's edition.
Close contender is when a game is only released as part of a complete set, like the Rockman 5 in 1 Special Box being the only way to get Rockman Legacy Collection 2 physically.
On top of expecting an LRG delivery today for Streets of Rage IV / Tiny Metal Ultimate / realMYST, I just got a shipping notification for Wizard of Legend / Jay and Silent Bob Mall Brawl / Kunai and others.
It's nice to see LRG picking up pace again after a tough year.

I've ordered from Special Reserve Games a few times and they're good.
I did have one mishap where I ordered two copies of Downwell and a copy of Gris, and they ended up shipping me three copies of Gris by mistake. They let me keep the two extra copies and shipped out the copies of Downwell I expected.
My order for My Friend Pedro arrived just fine with no complication, and I'm currently awaiting fulfillment of a September 2020 order for Swords of Ditto Mormo's Curse.
Some of their other titles I've ordered as variant releases from Limited Run Games, including Minit, The Messenger, Carrion, Hotline Miami Collection, and Pikuniku.
I was lucky enough to grab a pre-order of Ape Out from Special Reserve last night. They put 300 copies up for pre-order through their discord and I realized just in time to land one. Only 3000 copies and none through LRG this time

So your firewall lets you get onto Nintendo Life during the day, but not other sites you might buy things from?
Can you not just use mobile network data on your phone to place an order? I used to have to do that for Super Rare Games as I'd always be riding the bus home when orders went live at 6PM UK time on Thursdays.
@Magician
It's been about an hour now since Ape Out pre-orders opened, and they haven't sold out yet so there's a chance you can place that order later.
Whilst looking at the product listing though, I noticed this detail under "Collector's Details".
SRG Cover: 3,000
ALT Cover: 2,000
This suggests that Limited Run Games will open orders for a variant cover in the near future. I recall that they did the same for Swords of Ditto, they didn't open simultaneously.
Actually, that makes me regret ordering the game today a bit. I could've waited for the LRG variant and done a bundled order like I was planning to later this month.
Edit: P.S. - I think I'll have to put something down on The Silver Case while I'm at it. After all, it is one of the games I port-begged NIS America for. Now I just need a Cladun collection, Disgaea 2 & 3, The Witch and the Hundred Knight 1 & 2, and maybe Z.H.P.. Much like Nintendo, NIS are beginning to run out of game they can pull from their back catalog and port to Switch.

It's a nice lenticular card that serves a real purpose too, letting you decode messages in-game with their alternative alphabet.
Some runes are used for multiple letters.
Viva la France! According to the tracking info, my most recent order from Red Art is on my doorstep. Externum EX and Children of the Zodiacs I believe. I'm still waiting for RAG to offer another one of their 33% off sales before I order their recent offerings. It's all been kind of "meh" after their Hardcore Mecha announcement back in October.
