New n Tasty getting limited physical release (PS4/Vita)
 
All o' ya! Just a head's up for those who haven't seen, Oddworld Inhabitants have partnered with Limited Run Games to produce a (very) limited edition physical release of New n Tasty!

The game is coming soon via the Limited Run website, and will be released for PS4 and Vita. The PS4 version also comes pre-patched and with Alf's Escape on disc.

Sounds pretty good! No word yet on pricing as far as I can tell :)

Damn. Can't they do a PC physical release too :c

I'd love to get a special edition Soulstorm a la F:NV.

"All the rage"... From the fans?

Holy Sock 03-31-2016 01:17 PM

Yes clam, believe it or not NnT has been a hit for most Oddworld fans. Also, it's marketing speek. What do you expect?

Edit: just got your joke. Apologies.

Varrok 03-31-2016 01:21 PM

I'm still raging over it.

But if someone wants to buy a physical copy of it, it's their business. They removed the awful logo so there's nothing really bad about the cover art now

Alf Shall Rise 03-31-2016 04:30 PM

Pretty neat. Kind of tempted to buy it just to have an actual case for the game, but I dunno. Cool regardless!

You honestly think so?

Compare it to this, which one communicates the tone of the game better?

Man, that purple hue effect on the original cover is terrible. Nostalgic, but terrible.

Nepsotic 03-31-2016 08:54 PM

It doesn't look that bad irl, I just couldn't find a good scan.

EVP_Glukkon 03-31-2016 10:31 PM

HUH?!

A new release for my VITA?!

NnT cover communicates the tone of NnT perfectly.

Xavier 04-01-2016 12:18 AM

I agree with Varrok. The cover art of N'n'T does a good job of communicating the game's tone.

Crashpunk 04-25-2016 06:03 AM

Both versions are available now!

Got them! hurry up guys! there's also a second chance! the second inventary will be online at 6 PM (EST).

Connell 04-25-2016 06:24 AM

Christ I just bit the bullet and bought one even though my bank account told me not to. 45 dollars / 32 pounds when shipping is added in. Quite a hit. I don't even like the game that much.

I think this is when being a fan is a problem.

I didn't have a problem getting it though, and I only just placed my order.

With customers like you, OWI has no incentive to improve its products.

Varrok 04-25-2016 06:54 AM

Yeah, Connell, I don't think buying stuff you don't like is the best course of action :/

Connell 04-25-2016 06:56 AM

I collect video games, though. And Oddworld is my favourite franchise. I am fully aware of the lunacy of my actions, but I justify it by the fact I collect and I love Oddworld, so this is an addition I wanted.

It's not that I don't like it completely. I just don't like it that much, as in I won't be in a rush to play it again when this arrives for a while.

*waits for someone to find a quote of me slagging off N'n'T from years ago*

It's good news for OWI!

Varrok 04-25-2016 07:04 AM

I guess knowing is the first step... Right?

Connell 04-25-2016 07:06 AM

I'll get help one day.

Vlam 04-25-2016 07:09 AM

The term in english is "cash cow" (but I may be wrong).

I think you're wrong. Also, in a sense buying this is investing in the quality of Soulstorm.

Vlam 04-25-2016 07:21 AM

Well, you will buy anything related to Oddworld (even products you dislike)...
Crashpunk is at least happy about everything.

Connell 04-25-2016 07:31 AM

Regardless of whether that's true, that's not what a cash cow is. It refers to the product itself, not the consumer. A cash cow is a product that continuously generates revenue far in excess of the amount required to start the venture. I wouldn't call New'n'Tasty a cash cow in any sense of the phrase, nor would I call myself one, because it doesn't make sense.

I bought a game from a company I like. That's about it really.

Vlam 04-25-2016 07:37 AM

Yes, I mean: "to be play for a sucker" (no offense).

Crashpunk 04-25-2016 07:39 AM

Why you dragging me into this Vlam?

We just bought a video game which has a very limited physical release. And for someone who prefers physical over digital, This is an exciting thing.

The fuck is the problem?

You don't have to worry at all, I don't think I could ever be offended by anything you say to me, Vlam.

My original post was tongue in cheek completely. Didn't think I'd end up explaining my motives. Silly me!

Vlam 04-25-2016 07:53 AM

Look, you aren't a fool if you will sell the game in a couple of years.

CP, no offense, I was saying: you never dislike anything related to OWI.

Connell 04-25-2016 07:55 AM

Well, why did you just PM me calling me a fool then, Vlam? This is so ridiculous.

Paying 45 dollars a game you hate...

Connell 04-25-2016 08:02 AM

Right, let's just leave it, huh Vlam? I don't come on here to argue. We can just disagree on this one. We're both mature enough to do that :)

Crashpunk 04-25-2016 08:02 AM

That's because Oddworld is my favorite game franchise ever. A franchise which was considered dead a few years ago. And I thought it would never come back.

I know it does come across as me blinding loving everything they do, But all I'm doing is just trying my very hardest to support the company. But I guess all that just comes back and bites you on the arse doesn't it...

Anyway. That's actually not entirely true. I disliked Munch's Oddysee. :tard:

Vlam 04-25-2016 08:04 AM

Okay, Crashpunk and Connell. *shake hands*

A new age for the Oddworld Forums. ;)

Holy Sock 04-25-2016 09:51 AM

Doesn't OWI know all this plastic will eventually end up in the sea?? Lorne even shared a downcycling video on Facebook!

Varrok 04-25-2016 10:28 AM

There goes Lanning's love for the nature. All NnT physical copies will eventually pollute the Earth!
