Default Re: LRG is selling plates and proofs

There items are "official" since they are fully licensed Nintendo switch and Sony PS4 and PS5 releases..however, i do agree with you that the wording "Limited Run" is laughable at best...literally there are some publishers out there that distribute their games in all major US brick and mortar retailers including the likes of Wal-Mart and Target that have a MUCH SMALLER print run than LRG releases, but no one ever plays up the "scarcity" angle of it...LRG does come across as "arrogant" and they do "bash" the competition, but they did put out some releases that i am appreciative of such as Double Dragon NEON for Switch that may have only been stuck in the digital realm.

I didn't say they weren't official. With the unlicensed part I was referencing a specific incident where they couldn't acquire a license from SEGA but they made an excuse that "Sega doesn't give a license for that game to anyone" and went ahead and made an actual unlicensed release..

Agree with everything else you said
