It's easy to get the games but you really have to be there right when they go on sale.

It was really cool that the LRG guys stopped in. I know I have had some posts that come off negative but I really do like the company. I appreciate what they do but dislike how they do it at times. Just like people being angry about how Nintendo handled the NES mini. They disapproved of that but still love and will continue to buy from them. I myself complain about how many games that LRG has been releasing but in the end I know I will be buying them. Probably gonna bitch about it because over time it gets expensive but my OCD must have them!

So regardless of the content of the discussion about them and how things for them play out I still want them to succeed. I never had ill will towards them. Disapproval of some things yes, hatred or ill will not at all. Keep the games coming and above all stay in business and succeed.

It was easy until yesterday for me. I was out fishing, but did get on a minute before, signed in, added to cart and went to check out in paypal. Went through the "queue" and went to finalize and it was sold out.

That happened to me once because of delay on the phone using paypal. I was in mexico, on phone and paypal made me use a code they sent me through text. By the the time I got it done they were gone. I did get on the night one and got it then. Otherwise on my home computer I am always fine. I also log into paypal in another tab five minutes prior. This saves the log in time.

At one time I was upset they did not use a pre order system. Since them I have found just doing it a certain way it never fails. I also only get the PS4 versions and rarely add the Vita versions of games. So this does save me time. Also, if you want one version over the other buy that one first then go back and buy the other. It may cost you an extra five to order but it helps make sure you get want you want at the least.

How about you Elkin, you order most of these. Have you ever had any issue getting the order placed?

So what is the new ordering format for Ys going to be. I went to the forum but it was just a mess of people arguing. Also they have not updated the news section on the site since July

If all else fails you can still pre-order it from Play Asia.

I'm still waiting for LRG to ship my copy of Night Trap. I don't remember them being this slow about it.

I got an email saying Y's will be pre-orderable for 24 hours on Friday so it seems like anyone who wants a copy will get one. That's great news since the kids and I will be in a water park hotel on Friday and this is one I really want having never played a Y's game before. It looks like a lot of fun.

Having just noticed this part, I'll answer your question two and a half weeks late!

The only "issue" I've ever had was Night Trap. I tried with the morning batch, and I got it into my cart, but it had sold out by the time I was through checkout (I was in the middle of the Baltimore Convention Center at BronyCon on my cell phone, so I wasn't exactly on a blazing connection). Managed to snag one with the 6 PM batch, though. And I totally get and support why they don't have in-cart item reserves. So no, I've never really had any real issues as long as I made sure I was logged in and had my CC information stored before hand.

Normally not one for sealed games. On a normal basis, I hate the very idea of it. games are meant to be played IMO. So again a hypocrite. I don't think I will open Night Trap unless my OCD kicks in (not using that loosely as I legit have it) and makes me open it. Night Trap is one of the few things I just like the idea of owning but no real intention to play. Why I have ET on Atari.

is anyone else just going to have Night Trap for dislay?
