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.

Not sure why, but Limited Run only publish for PS4 and Vita :confused:

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

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.

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

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?

Aw shit, not again.

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

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

HUH?!

A new release for my VITA?! <(O___O)>

NnT cover communicates the tone of NnT perfectly.

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

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).

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.

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

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!

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

I'll get help one day.

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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?
