Could we get Ikaruga-themed Joycons as well?

I’d be more interested if Radiant Silvergun was on there too...

 

[opt2not]

I guess I’ll buy it...for the umpteenth time...

Looking forward to having a physical copy of the game and hopefully it wont be limited.

I agree. A radiant silvergun would be nice too. The last digital release I recall was for the Xbox360.

Yup, already have a digital copy of Ikaruga.

I'll buy it even though I already own the digital on steam, xbox, and switch.

Ikaruga on the switch, portable with the flip grip is a great experience.

For real though, we really need Silvergun. Getting tired of waiting for even a digital release on a modern console or PC.

NECRO-BUMPPP!

So this physical release from Nicalis never happened in 2019 but they tweeted about it again today

Man, I sure can't wait for all these people who don't like the game enough to buy it digitally on the storefront of their choice for $5 to suddenly become excited to pay 8 times that now that it's physical!

It's free at the Argentinian XBLA:

So that they can display it on their shelf for 'hardcore gaymer' points.

Thanks for the update Hanzo. Is this a limited run kind of limited or “limited” as in can I wait a bit to order, any idea?

 

[Hattori Hanzo]

I don't think it's a LRG kind. They will also sell a Japanese version at Play-Asia.

Will they just sell the game without the fancy box, silly sticker and useless model?

 

[Hattori Hanzo]

I hope so, Play-Asia lists normal US editions with the same release date.

Nice thanks again, I’m looking for the non extras version as well.

 

[Tron]

I was hoping this would get a retail release not this lrg kind of crap stunt.

 

[GohanX]

That would be nice, but it seems that it's now preferred to have some ridiculous hyped collector limited release than to just sell them to Best Buy/Gamestop and be forgotten and eventually clearanced until a few years pass and someone discovers it as a hidden gem.
