Author Topic: Limited Run Games Showcase 2025 discussion/predictions/wishes  (Read 25 times)

Limited Run Games announced their next E3/Summer Game Fest style showcase is happening on October 29th. For a while I didn't even think they were going to do one of these, since they usually happen during the summer. But regardless, better late than never. I always look forward to seeing the stuff that LRG is making available physically over the next year or so. Let's have some discussion and make some predictions as to what they'll be releasing this next year. Also, wishlists are welcome too.

Here are a combinations of wishes and predictions I have for LRG's 2025 showcase.


On cart releases of Switch 2 key card games: I think this would be huge for a lot of people and something LRG could probably do fairly easily. Even if they had to charge +$10 or whatever for the privilege of having the full game on cart, I think a lot of people would pay it. Of course, not all publishers would be on board with this, but I feel like some would be willing to allow this as long as there is extra money to be made.


Lightgun games on modern consoles: This one is more of a wishlist item than a prediction. It would be awesome if LRG partnered with one of the companies that make modern light guns that work with LED TVs and sold it as a plug and play option for the PS4, Switch, PS5, and so on. Alongside it, it would be amazing ifthey started doing physical releases of classic lightgun games from Sega, Namco, Midway, Atari and other companies that made incredible lightgun titles in the 90s and 2000s.


More modern ports of cult retro games: This seems to be LRG's bread and butter over the last year or so. I can see them announcing more of these. I'm not sure about specific titles, but you can bet there will be quite a few of these announced.
