you guys ever buy from them?

I've bought all the Shantae games from them, and Arzette
Other than that, I try to stay away from LRG. It's bullshit that they're all about "preserving games via physical media", but they do so with FOMO

The only LG game I bought is night trap and it was 2nd hand so they got no $ from me.

Some of that IS the fact they have to buy the right to a certain number of units produced from whoever owns the rights. So they don't just do like, "ONLY 5000 BECAUSE FOMO!", but it also has to do with how much they are willing to spend to produce units.

It hasn't shown up yet, but I'm excited to try it out.
Buddies and I used to love the CDI Zelda cutscenes, so I felt like I had to get this one physically

Their justification seems to check out, though. They couldn't get 3DO games to be playable via pressed methods, tried burning CD-Rs, passed their own QA test on their own 3DOs, but...didn't work once they made it to the wild.

That's fucked
