    Sadly businesses with integrity are almost none-existent. If there is money to be made then money shall be made and nothing is off the table to make that money.

      Yeah, I bet they’ll come out with another one after this one.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if they make a 4th edition, because they obviously don’t care about the consumer. They just want to drown in money.

    When it's all limited run then none of its limited run.

    I feel like a lot of special edition stuff is just not worth it, or way overpriced. Like, that Sonic x Shadow special edition with the statues and stuff is SO cool, but I can't really afford to take out a second mortgage to get it, lol.

      Yeah, it’s crazy. Every LRG release. Gets like 2-3 different versions per release . So I think that means there’s gonna be like 7-9 different versions total of this game. It’s really not worth it, and I say that as a huge ninja Turtles fan.

    I guess it's a good thing I've waited this long for a physical version.
    Mona Lisa is cute but I am shocked that she became a playable character. The Punk Frogs would have made more sense.

    LRG will definitely do a fourth version.
    Honestly, I'm moreso surprised they haven't dipped back into the SkullGirls bin, seeing how many DLC updates that game continued to get.

    LRG sucks I'm pretty sure they released a retro game collection that was physical only and way too expensive? Didn't they have some trouble with the Turrican collection.

    I feel the same way about Limited Run Games as I do about Arcade 1up. I like their idea, but I'm not going to buy anything from them anymore.

    • @PKInTheUniverse

    Hopefully, there will be another actually complete version that is not theough limited run. I know there are often asian versions with English.

    I loved them at the start. I got a fair few of their stuff, and then they just got silly and you had to wait half a year. Became pointless. Don't touch them now. But I'll always love my night trap collectors edition 🔥

    • @PKInTheUniverse
      @PKInTheUniverse  Місяць тому +1

      Yeah, it was a weird deal, at first the windows to order were way too short and the number you could order was very limited. Then they started doing open pre-orders , and wait times have always just been all over the place. But then also you could get their games from Best Buy. And a game like Celeste, ironically is now being published by somebody else.

    Great video but the ones on Amazon aren't limited run. I couldn't tell you the difference but I know the limited run ones are worth more for some reason.

    • @PKInTheUniverse
      @PKInTheUniverse  Місяць тому

      Well, I’m pretty sure at least for the US ones have the limited run logo on them . The collectors editions are definitely worth more.

    • @Beirdo267
      @Beirdo267 Місяць тому +1

      ​@@PKInTheUniverse I think there's two companies that produces the physical ones. Same as Streets of Rage 4. The limited run ones are worth loads. The normal ones not so much. As I say, I don't know why but if it has the limited run logo in the bottom right they're worth a bit of money.

      It just never ends. To me these things feel like there’s something for collectors not for people that actually want to play the games. Especially that $125 collectors edition.

    Admit it, you'll buy it 😏
    - Gonna increase in value on 2nd hand market
    - includes toys you can't get anywhere else
    - OCD collector mentality
    - and of course... its retro TMNT. Your man-child brain demands it

    It's anti-consumer to offer more consumer products? Make that make sense. Vote with your pocketbook. Don't buy the new Turtles game. You will be fine.

    • @PKInTheUniverse
      @PKInTheUniverse  25 днів тому +1

      I’m not going to buy it again. , that’s the fucking point! It’s just fucking nonsense that they keep re-releasing the same game even though their policy for years is not to continue to make the same game. It is the same game with two additional characters. I just think it’s stupid that they aren’t doing what they say they’re gonna do.
