I'm not interested in the Iconoclasts limited edition. However the shortage is definitely due to LRG's either stupidity or purposeful planning. All switch limited editions have sold out quickly. Why did they let people order two?? Either they have no clue what patrons are looking for and how much demand there is, or they wanted to sell out quickly and generate more hype. Either speaks about LRG's long-lasting ineptitude. Expect half of those to appear on ebay for jacked up prices.

I had originally planned to grab Iconoclasts but after watching a few gameplay videos, decided against it. While it's cute and looks somewhat fun...there's just way too many metroidvania games these days that I'm getting burnt out on buying them. It's a great style of game but when everyone and their mum makes a game in this style...they get boring!

Nabbed Game Tengoku CruisinMix Special Paradise Box.

Two weird things. One, I don't see the number of copies available on the page...did they change that? And two, I didn't get an email about stuff coming out today! I just happened to check the site at about 4 am and saw they were planning on releasing this...wtf. I almost missed a great game!

Today's switch collectors edition was 1000 copies, 1 per customer, sold out in less than 2 minutes. I managed to get one for the collection though luckily

Ha! I probably wouldnt have made it lol Good Work!

Not sure why such a low quantity on this go around. It's the lowest I've seen so far. Good for collection value long term though I'd think.

I wish limited run would stop producing ps4 games already being distributed by other companies. I think having games from dif. manufacturers adds some flavor to a collection so LRG doesn't need to produce games like Super Meat Boy that are already out there.

Mine arrived yesterday.  You should get it soon, assuming it wasn't lumped in with something else that isn't ready yet.

Maybe, just once, someone will call me "sir" without adding, "you're making a scene."

I'm surprised the limited Spelunky is still available! It's good, really really good... and the collector's edition is actually very nicely done.

yup

Buy now, play later! I mean, come on, how many of us have purchased a game for a system we don't currently own...

Super fast...surprisingly fast really. I know it's a RPG but...honestly I was on the fence about getting a copy because it looked fairly generic in it's trailers. I like RPGs but...I really debated here. So I was surprised it sold that fast.

Man, Spelunky on Vita sold out very quickly both batches. I went to buy it right at 10 and again at 6 and it became unavailable during checkout. If anyone has an extra Vita copy I may be interested

3 mins in and TJ&E Switch LE still available at the 10AM release!

Looks like it took 5 minutes!  Nice, not super hard to get.
