I was right, aren't I? No love :p

he probably wants to take the 300 and sell them on ebay ...

I pre-ordered the night before the pre-orders closed. Six days (April 2nd - 8th) was all the pre-order was up for before "selling out". Someone on another forum posted speculation, prior to the pre-order closing, that the number of copies made was likely either 3,000 or 3,500, either of which would seem to fit with the short sell-out time imo.

Also the game's creator seemed to insinuate that all copies of the game are/were already produced and in his posession. The "pre-order" was more or less him pre-selling off all of the games before comitting to an official release date so that he could mail themm all at the same time in order to get a bulk mailing/shipping rate. Again, makes sense to me from a small business stand point, especially if he plans to actually package, label, and mail/ship all of the games himself. If he is working on doing it in such manner then the lack of a committed release/shipping date, other than saying "end of the month", makes a lot more sense.

well i suppose you guys are right....

its nice to see something of an independent project once in a while rather than triple A titles all the time....

the game is on flash sale for 3.50 on US psn by the way (crossbuy) , last day today.

More good news, the game's creator has revealed the production number for the Vita edition of RCRDX, it's 3,330.

Also, game has been freshly entered into the database.:

My copy arrived in the mail today! And interestingly, something else arrived with it. ALso in the shipping package was a small vinyl ziplock-type bag containing.:

• Retro City Rampage - FanGamer Papercraft sheet with first name and order number there on.
• FanGamer logo decal
• FanGamer product pamphlet
• FanGamer small pin/button (random?)

Retro City Rampage Papercraft character sheet with my first name and order number written there on makes for a rather unique new aspect to this limited edition. The hand written name and order number intrigues me very much as I still can't determine if the "writing" is printed on using a very clever custom font, preset name image, or if it is written using a green felt tip pen. I'm presently leaning towards it being actual hand writting with a green felt tip pen as the old flashlight inspection indicates some level of ink absorbtion into the thick card paper. Can't know for sure though unless I can locate my magifying glass... or maybe someone else can check theirs with a magnifyer to see if that is actual handwriting or a clever print job?

Also I feel the design on the pin/button is likely included at random since it is essentially promotion by FanGamer as a marketting means to reach out to show they offer good quality buttons. The button I received has a lavendar background with purple circle patterns around a green rounded oceanic mine shaped thingy in the middle, haven't a clue as to what it is meant to be artwork of, but the quality of it seems to be very good.

Mine hasn´t shipped yet, though it´s probably going to be a while before I get to receive it anyway. But I was a bit concerned that my order had not gone through, so just checked the site and my order is good, it simply stands as unfulfilled.

Can you post some pics of the game and extras game_player? Would love to see that.

The zip lock bag with the pins and everything else was also included with the ps4 version of the game as well
