No I agree man. Just crazy these delays. Data Discs can put out releases consistently without long lead times, so why can't iam8bit? I ordered the Zelda pressing, and a friend ordered Ori for me and him. I feel like it'll be end of 2017 before Zelda ships despite their Q2 2017 window. I can't understand it. Data Discs seem to have everything pretty much 90% complete at the time of pre-order, but I get the impression iam8bit haven't even done a test pressing when pre-orders go live.

Man, I'm so jealous! I'll have to watch ebay like a hawk...

Ouch, that's a big shipping cost. My order came to £102 all in, so a bit steep when I got the last one for £75 all in. Still, I'd rather that than end up paying £150 from some dude flipping it in 6 months. Still annoyed that I never grabbed the Anesthetize box back in the day

I couldn't find it anywhere else to be honest. I caved last week and bought it as their Twitter page said it's selling fast, and the other box set is now completely sold out and won't be re-pressed. Luckily I got the other box set off of Amazon about 6 months ago though. Still no Deadwing! Maybe one day...

Anyone heard any more news on Mondo pressing Silent Hill? Haven't seen or heard anything in a while to be honest.

Thanks rbptz! In my defence I did Google them after posting. My point was more that after initially reading the post that I had no idea who/what those things were. Maybe they're bigger in America? I've never heard them mentioned over here though. Anyway, a Katamari Damacy/Final Fantasy mashup sounds interesting. A shame it's not a straight Katamari OST, but maybe that's further down the line.

Man I feel old. You just said a bunch of stuff and I have no idea what half of it means: R23X? MAGFest? The Yeetee? I'll see myself out...

Damn, nothing for us UK/EU folks for that variant. Even changing the country to UK and Ireland doesn't help. Still in dollars, and still has crazy shipping costs. Think I'll stick with the black then.

To be honest I cant see Banquet being cheaper than Amazon US even after import and shipping. Amazon works out to about £25 each with shipping and pre-paid import costs. Banquet will probably charge at least £25, probably £30-35 knowing their imported record costs in the past. Then you have their shipping fee on top.... I'd say pre-order with Amazon, and keep an eye on Banquet. At least with Amazon you don't pay until it ships and can cancel at any time.

Damn I may have to pick these up, hoping to see some on EU stores soon...

My list of games to play is so so long at the moment! It's getting silly. I have FFXV but I'm gonna wait for the big story patch before I start it. I've been ploughing endless amounts of time into Astroneer at the moment. It's utterly addictive and well worth getting even in its pre-alpha stage. Edit: anyone interested should give this a read - http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2017-01-03-at-the-moment-astroneer-is-a-fascinating-inversion-of-typical-sci-fi-wonder

I did! It arrived Christmas eve. They sent it to me and just asked that I return the incorrect one via freepost which I did on Friday last week. Drop an email here, this is the guy that helped me: [email protected]. He copied in [email protected] and [email protected] so you may want to do the same. To be fair to them they were very quick to respond to me, so it may be that you've slipped through the net.

This is definitely tempting. As is their follow up if it happens to be pressed as well. Think I'll probably wait for a black copy though! Edit: Black is up at Amazon UK - https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01MRZDEVB/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_z.1Ayb3J3WCT7

Wow. I mean, I thought people were nice in your other thread so I'm not really sure what's going on to be honest.

I'm not sure what they'll actually do but my reply said.... "James on cc will get this sorted for you tomorrow and send info for free post return of the wrong item. :)" I'm guessing maybe they'll email me a label to print out? Would think that would be the fastest way. I dunno though tbh....

Just got home. I got the same thing! Bit annoying, just contacted them, hopefully they'll sort it. Wondering if this is a wider issue... Edit: Just seen others with the same issue on Twitter. They're advising to email them on [email protected] Edit 2: They replied within 5 minutes on the above email so that seems like the way to go!

That's a bit annoying, hopefully they'll sort it though for you. Wondering if my copy will be waiting for me when I get home!

My copy of Final Symphony has shipped! Wooooooo! Went to "The Tomb Raider Suite" in London last night, was pretty damn good. While looking on YouTube this morning I stumbled on this: Journey, Bloodborne, Megaman, TLOU, Mario, Zelda, Skyrim, FF6, and FF9 all performed by the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra. Bloodborne is particularly brilliant.

This new Iam8bit "Updates" page is great and all, but some explanation of the delays would be nice. My friend ordered me and him a copy of Ori, which was supposed to ship in November. Now this page says January and with no actual reason. http://iam8bit.com/updates

Thanks for the info guys!

How "open" are these Iam8bit releases normally? Christmas has got my wallet feeling pretty light and I get paid on the 16th. Would rather wait until then...

Dibs on a copy at no cost! Just kidding. What you gonna do with it?

God that looks incredible. To be clear, this appears to be the same recording as the kickstarter that went up a month or so ago. I'll be honest, if they'd have put these mock ups on the kickstarter page I would have jumped straight on it.

Bah, sorry for the double post. Dunno what's going on with quoting on here. Thanks dude!
