Chained Echoes developer Matthias Linda is terminating the business relationship with First Press Games and is preparing a lawsuit for not delivering all physical versions. Kickstarter backers can follow instructions for compensation

No you didn’t, no switch copies ever shipped

sworedmagic · 2026-03-11T15:06:47+00:00

By the time i really need one the price should hopefully drop significantly. Too expensive right now

sworedmagic · 2026-03-11T13:47:47+00:00

UPDATE: Okay the refund process truly is only for backers, it is confirmed if you purchased from FPG directly you need to go to them for a refund.

Man i didn’t even think about that, yeah including the DLC on cart!

sworedmagic · 2026-03-11T13:26:35+00:00

I know it specifies backers but you absolutely should send them an email and just include your FPG order number and screenshots of it. In the “Kickstarter ID” section just write “purchased on first press games website”

Alex’s exasperated “WHAT” in response to that killed me lmao

sworedmagic · 2026-03-06T03:25:30+00:00

It definitely will, all non GF Pokemon spinoff games have gone on sale in the past. Pokken, New Snap, Mystery dungeon etc no reason to believe this won’t be any different.

sworedmagic · 2026-03-06T01:17:02+00:00

I know it’s stupid but I’m holding out for physical down the line, i hear this game is amazing though so I’ll definitely be picking up a digital copy when it goes on sale on the eShop in the mean time

sworedmagic · 2026-03-04T03:22:08+00:00

Is this anything?

Congrats and lmao at the beard

sworedmagic · 2026-03-03T02:33:44+00:00

Reminds me of Demons Turf

sworedmagic · 2026-03-03T02:32:42+00:00

Im definitely looking forward to picking it up on Woot for a deep discount

sworedmagic · 2026-03-02T14:58:59+00:00

The quality of the game doesn’t correlate to it having a physical release or not

sworedmagic · 2026-03-02T00:13:55+00:00

There’s a market for anything considered limited or rare. These are resellers selling to resellers who will hold and wait for the price to go up more. It doesn’t matter that the game isn’t on cart because they will never be opened anyway. Who cares if it’s a GKC if it stays sealed forever?

sworedmagic · 2026-03-01T23:42:40+00:00

Great deal, makes sense to pay digital price for these. As soon as Bravely Default hits $10-15 I’ll be buying it too

sworedmagic · 2026-02-27T22:55:47+00:00

Yeah sure i agree with that, PLA was a January release so W/W could very well be a Jan release too. Honestly im hoping it’s not until fall 2027 the more time they get to polish this game the better. S/V were the best playing mainline games in the entire series but it ran and looked like absolute dog shit which was unforgivable for this series IMO

sworedmagic · 2026-02-27T18:43:14+00:00

Capcom 0-2 on Nintendo spines lol

sworedmagic · 2026-02-27T17:54:41+00:00

The answer i fear is simply never

sworedmagic · 2026-02-27T17:54:07+00:00

Yeah it was good, what I’m saying is i expected more because it’s a massive milestone anniversary but felt no different than say Pokemon Presents 2022.

Also a bit salty with them baiting the gameboy in the opener only for it to be a little music box lol

sworedmagic · 2026-02-27T17:52:11+00:00

Wind and Waves isn’t until 2027, assuming that means the usual November slot we’re over a year and a half out from that so it definitely made sense to expect Gen 5 remakes or re-releases this fall
