Basically, this is the age old concept of not being able to put lipstick on a pig.

Something I learned at LRG, from numerous attempts: extending preorders on a product that is selling poor does nothing to boost sales, it just spreads the same sales over a longer window and delays production. If a product has no upfront demand, that demand is not going to just suddenly materialize.

GDC was great! I was able to spend a ton of time reconnecting with my childhood best friend.

In case anyone missed this: I am no longer at Limited Run and I have not been involved in any day-to-day operations since mid-January.

With this in mind, please direct any LRG related comments, concerns, or complaints to the company's main social media accounts, not me.

We do have a Sewer Shark remaster in the works! It'll be worth the wait.

I've always felt like the SEGA Mega Drive 2 and Neptune had strong "front-end of a wedge sports car" vibes

Screaming Villains is working on a remaster of Maximum Surge, but that will likely drop after all the other Digital Pictures remasters since it's a little more complex. We have all the film and code, though, so it will be fully accurate to how the game would've played had it released in 96.

Heads up! When I acquired the rights to the Digital Pictures game library, @tylerhogle.bsky.social and I found the unreleased SEGA Saturn version of Prize Fighter Heavyweight Edition. It's now been preserved online and can be downloaded for free at archive.org/details/priz...

A lot, it is right by the US Navy base. More foreigners there than I'd seen anywhere else in Japan honestly.

I appreciate that the things you made as a kid looked this good. The games I made as a kid were either text based or used ASCII graphics.

I went to Yokosuka earlier tonight. It felt surreal, like returning to a place I'd been before (even though I hadn't)

I like that they have their very own 7-Eleven in the office. It feels a bit like Richie Rich having his own personal McDonald's.

Wrapped up Day 2 of visiting SEGA in Tokyo!

I also visited Madarake, Trader, and Super Potato today. Honestly, I was a bit overwhelmed by choice. I love how packed the stores are! I mostly focused on completing my SEGA AGES 2500 collection.

I spent the day today at SEGA's HQ in Tokyo. It was amazing to get to see all of the history around the office.

It looks like I made the right decision to skip out on DICE to be present for what I had on Monday.

I am feeling pretty good right now.

I'm sad to not be going to DICE this year, but I had to attend to something far more important on Monday. I'm looking forward to going back to DICE next year!

Once you all start seeing what I'll be working on, you'll understand why I couldn't pass any of this up. We only have one chance to live our life and it's important to live it to the fullest, even if that sometimes requires tough decisions.

Here's to an incredible 2026!

It has been a wild ride, one that I have never taken for granted. I look forward to continuing to support Limited Run as a fan, a customer, and a partner. With the incredible slate of releases we have planned for next year, I know the future is bright for LRG.

It wasn't an easy decision to make. Limited Run Games has been my life for ten years. I love what I get to do, but I recognize that Limited Run could benefit from new leadership, who will bring fresh perspectives and original ideas to drive LRG through its next ten years and beyond.

I made this decision after I found myself presented with several opportunities to help bring dream games to life. Since then, even more irresistible opportunities have found themselves on my doorstep. I know I'd always regret it if I didn't seize the moment and pursue these things.

With 2025 drawn to a close, it feels like the right time to announce that I stepped down as CEO at Limited Run Games back in September. I'm still working there as President until March, but after that, I will be scaling back to redirect my focus to new adventures.

These collections include a ton of licensed tables. Historically, lapsed licenses on tables causes pinball games like these to end up delisted at some point.

Don't sleep on the chance to add these to a forever collection - no one can take your physical copies away when the licenses expire!

Our head of production skates regularly, so I would assume he's pretty particular on the board quality. I'd need to check with him regarding origin - he's not on social media for a quick tag in, unfortunately!
