[telly]

They were going to release all of the Jak games, correct?

Today is the one day that all three of this month's switch preorders are up at the same time. Been waiting to save on shipping.

Jan 24th - EastAsiaSoft are releasing Oniken + Odallus Collection. You can buy each separately for PS4 (or buy both and they throw in a slipcover) or one one cart for Switch.

Jan 25th - Limited Run Games has Jak II, Tacoma, and lord knows what else.

Jan 27th - Strictly Limited Games will be selling Wonder Boy Returns.

FYI, Vita fans: the first casualty of the cart production ending has been announced, YIIK has been axed.

Jak 1, 2, 3, and Racing X.  Racing X never had a physical release outside of the PS2 release.

They are not doing Lost Frontier.

Not announced, but LRG just listed Super Mutant Alien Assault for PS4 on their site for sale this Friday.

And today, LRG have pulled Super Mutant Aliens Assault from sale due to discovery of a trophy bug.... that’s been around for 2 years.

Also, SLG apparently will announce a Switch release for this weekend, to go with the PS4 release of Wonder Boy Returns.

I was thinking of getting Celeste, would you guys recommend it?

[ignition365]

I make poor decisions and buy things without really looking into them.  It is highly rated and was up for GOTY at many awards... I would say yes.

Those kinds of super technical platformers aren't generally my cup of tea but I was thinking of giving it a shot

Same here, but I figure it's worth trying given all the praise and worst case scenario it's usually pretty easy to sell & recoup what you paid for LRG releases, especially the Switch ones.

Also thanks for the heads up on the Wonder Boy release. I have a preorder with SLG right now but I guess I'm still not on their mailing list.

SLG also announced Velocity 2X for Switch also for sale this weekend.

Another World for Switch announced by LRG... They are just this week beginning to ship out the CEs for the PS4/Vita versions of this game.

LRG maintains a 1:1 ratio of rehashes and new titles for Switch.  14 new titles and 14 re-releases of titles previous released by themselves or other publishers.

Some of those 14 new titles saw simultaneous releases on multiple platforms.

I feel like it goes against their philosophy of never releasing a product again like it says on their about page, but oh well. None of their titles other than Spelunky have interested me lately.

LRG are release The Game Paradise Cruisin’ Mix Special for PS4 this Friday. Never mind that it’s already got a physical in Japan and has full English support....

Vasara collection is being released by SLG for PS4/Vita/NS.
