I was expecting them especially with the slam they did in the last 6 weeks of the year stuffing out so much backlog. I ordered Doom but haven't heard anything.I bundled it with 3 other Shantae Switch games but I think those are in stock already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki | 5,124 Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Hmm so we're in the same place, stuck, Doom is being held up for whatever reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VegHead | 129 Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 I just got a shipping notice for games I ordered back in April 2020 (Star Wars: Jedi Knight bundle). I've always gotten my games from them, even if it takes forever. I had them email me once when a t-shirt order couldn't be fulfilled, and they refunded me just fine. It's frustrating, but I basically order from them and then just forget about it (not necessarily on purpose), and then when stuff shows up, it's like my birthday!

I usually have to wait for a year or even more for any game I preorder from them. I wish it would change, so you don't have preorders that far in advance, but as long as they are getting away with it, they don't really have any reason to change the model.

Reed Rothchild | 9,951 Editorials Team · Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 @Tanooki You're constantly setting yourself up to fail by expecting every order you make to arrive by any sort of set timeline. Order and forget. That's my advice. Or just buy it digital if you're in a hurry to play it. Hell it was just on sale for a few bucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tend to wait even longer because I try to combine as many games into a single order as possible to save on shipping, which means I have to wait on all of them until every game is available to ship. I don't understand the issue with waiting. Most of us have plenty of games to play while we wait. I wish the turn around time was quicker, but a long wait time is still better than digital only. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reed Rothchild | 9,951 Editorials Team · Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 @TDIRunner Yeah, same. I'll get my Grandia and Atooi whenever all the other games are ready.

I'm not sure which game took the longest to get in hand, but I know it wasn't Atooi. I saw others who ordered just that game receiving it a long time ago. I'm guessing Grandia was probably the hold up since it was a pre-order and those tend to take a little longer than the smaller batches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like I don't have access to either game, well mostly, I still have my old Doom 64 cart. Last year was a strange one, they got a run of stuff I actually wasn't willing to ignore them over for once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is that possible when the game is still marked as being "in production" on their site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sumez | 3,160 Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 (edited) Switch regular edition. Definitely not doing LRG collector's again. Those things are crummy EDIT: Aaaand I just got the shipping notification. Guess I'll probably have the game in a couple of months.

TDIRunner | 2,907 Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 I've never had to wait more than a few days between shipping notification and game in hand. I've never bought a single CE from LRG. I don't understand what people do with that extra stuff, whether high quality or not. I like physical games, but that's about it. I don't want the other crap.

MiamiSlice | 3,180 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 I ordered two of the blind boxes from 1PrintGames, you know when they said you would have a 20% chance of receiving autographed copies? Well they finally arrived and neither is autographed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
