    Strictly limited games doesn’t ship games ! Beware ! I have orders going back over 2 years ago and they aren’t shipping them ! Then with Iron Meat they never shipped mine that I pre ordered. So then they print a second run, and looks like I have to wait for that second run to get my initial pre order.

    Wasnt SlG the company that had Limited editions that had EXTRA games only on their physical carts in the past. Looking at the listings they did not do that with gun force. I remember one game they put out the standard only had like 5 games on it, but the collectors version had like all the extra versions of those games.

    I'm not sure if anyone will remember this but in the 90's you could often find Volume 1 anime DVD's that came with a box for the "box set" so you could add the subsequent DVDs to it as they came out, sometimes they didn't all come out as the company would go bust or drop a project. Rather than the Pre-order model they are currently using I feel like that would be a better model, For example : Hey, we intend to release 5 volumes, were going to sell the box set with the first game so you have it for the rest of them. I feel like they would sell more of the follow up volumes that way rather than relying on multi year pre-orders since you actually know you're getting what you paid for.

    @roguerifter9724 26 дней назад

    #8.33 for each game doesn't sound awful IMO. A little more then the Arcade Classics line per game sure but not absurd.
    I wish the Collections had a little more variety though. Vol 1 has two vertical shoot em ups and a horizontal shoot em up. 2 has a vertical shoot em up and two run and gun games. As many games as Irem made IMO they should easily be able to put out three game collections without multiple games of the same genre and subgenre.
    Edit: It looks like Gun Force II was Irem's final game. At least they went out with a great finale.

  • @Mingodough
    @Mingodough Месяц назад +1

    While I understand why you’re upset considering back then there would be game collections with like 50 games (like taito legends 1 and 2 or a modern example is sega genesis collection). This whole pricey and definitely could be cheaper, is quality. Those examples I mentioned have horrible input lag. This seems to use the strictly limited/inin games emulator which from my experience plays games pretty good input lag wise. It’s giving vibes of “oh because this game doesn’t have a billion games and or doesn’t have 100 hours of content, it’s not worth it”. Quality is also a factor, while I can’t speak for the games themselves, the emulation assuming it’s similar to past inin games emulation, is good. Though unlike say m2 or m2 shotriggers, they definitely should add a little more to make it worth it lol

    • @Madlittlepixel
      @Madlittlepixel  Месяц назад

      Doesnt need to be 50 games, 100 games... but 3 games for $25-35 is a bit much id say. Physical I get is kind of hard to argue about due to costs... but seriously 15 games on one cart for like $40 to $50 is a lot better a pill to swallow than $160 for 15 games... that makes no sense... to split a collection of 15 retro games that are each about 3-6mb's each across 5 collections is ridiculous lol.

    • @Mingodough

    Sounds like they went the Capcom route with how they handled their Mega Man games. No reason to spread so few games over so many releases.
    I get more annoyed that you have to launch and wait for each collection to start up to play certain titles (which are less than a 1MB). Irem's lack of titles per volume takes the #1 spot now.

And they respond back all annoyed, "We changed the date to 2025 etc." And the website has no updates changed.
    The only games I've received are the Asha in Monster World CE and the Wonder Boy Anniversary Collection Ultimate Edition. I don't understand the 2 year+ wait for some of these. I have no problem waiting as long as the company updates the release dates.
    It sucks because the actual quality of their CE's and releases are super premium, they come in these nice velevty big boxes with magnets to clasp the lid shut. And the regular copies are numbered, its cool but not 2 year+ wait cool, im tired of it. LRG is even more reliable, its crazy
