Limited Run Games believes that more companies will start selling a limited number of physical media in a decade.
Like a vocal minority demand?
On PS5 alone the digital sales made up 77% of all game sales in 2024.

Also, I despise f*ckin limited run games because they will extort people that want a physical version by marking up the prices almost 100% so they make more. So a game digitally that’s $30 you can expect it to be $60 on LRG and don’t even get me started on the collectors edition prices… it’s borderline highway robbery.
Yeah and other quarters it is 63% and sometimes lower than that, the split goes up and down so it isn't quite the digital domination you are trying to paint. I suspect given all that has been going on the past couple of years with digital and subscriptions people might start having a change of heart and tip the balance back.
No, it is quite the domination that I’m painting it out to be. Otherwise we wouldn’t be hearing how stores out struggling or seeing the removal of physical media flat out.
Please show me the quarter where physical sales beat out digital please. I would like to stand corrected.
I've never liked their practice of taking someone elses work and putting their own spin on it. Glorified bootleggers is what they are. Peddling their reproductions at more than full value of the original.
You do know the developers sign up for it and get paid. Believe it's a 70 percent developer and 30 percent limited run games. How are they bootlegging. They also go through Sony so it's all legit
At the end of the day, they are providing a service that others don't. You can moan about it all you want, but the reality is that without them, very few niche games would get a physical release. It's niche and they don't get the benefit of large volume manufacturing and sales.
They are a business; they have many costs. They employ staff, probably pay out benefits, have to invest in capital and property, have to work out licensing and contract agreements, have to come up with design ideas and work with manufacturers, they have to market, and they have to take on risk of inventory. They do it while still providing a service that others are willing to pay for. Sounds like a success story to me.
Those numbers are fabricated as fk though.
Say there's 1000s games and only 200 are available physically. Of course digital will be higher.
what are you even going on about?
What is being fabricated as “fk” with and I quote, “ Sony's fiscal report for the year ending March 2024, less PlayStation owners are buying boxed PS5 games that ever before. PS5 and PS4 physical sales in 2024 now only account for 30% of all PlayStation games sold as players continue to invest more in their digital game collections. Plus, with the release of the new PS5 Slim with its optional disk drive, we might see even more players buying the best PS5 games digitally.”
Help me with the mental gymnastics on how the numbers are fabricated in a fiscal financial report…
And regardless of the number of games even your point still shows how digital is selling more than physical. Like, what is even happening here?
A physical media distributor is even saying the landscape is changing in this very article. I don’t even know how this is up for debate. What will be apparent is “fk’s” like LRG will charge you way above the MSRP for physical games.
Somebody was paid to come up with that design......
Why pink? Like you’d think they’d go with orange, yellow or red similar to the old logos
What a boring design. I like their current design. Why change it
We need to stop calling plain text a logo.
