I bought the Switch version of TURRICAN COLLECTOR'S EDITION. I havent heard anything yet either.

[Planetinfinity]

Even in Juli I didn't hear anything.

Does anyone other heard of the Turrican Collector edition.

[Torti-the-Smurf]

Same Question. Its been so long. Still nothing.

Is it a scam ?

[Torti-the-Smurf]

Anybody ?

[ransom1122]

I've emailed Strictly Limited Games about this and get back to you if I hear anything..

[Torti-the-Smurf]

Thank you ransom

[fryguy]

I will probably try to cancel my order, they should at least release some information what is going on.

[Torti-the-Smurf]

Yes, that sucks Its almost a year beyond the " initial release date "


No comments what so ever and now they are back to preordering ? What the ....?

It stated "Shipping will start later this year. You will receive order updates as soon
as we receive the games and start shipping".

Sure, who believes that
Not a single word so far or any updates for us who allready paid.

This is the worst

Yes the absolute worst, a broken promise and potential tiny monetary loss. You definitely can't get over this by eating some cake.

One reason for the delay is due to F5 reworking the documentary - as SLG mentioned in recent email news:

This is not entirely true, they did send out an update via e-mail a month or so ago that it would take longer than expected.
The mail they send was back in November (on 11-11-2021 they send a Frequently Asked Question e-mail). It contained the following regarding Turrican:

Exactly

@Schlauchi

I have no Twitter, no Facebook, no Instacrap or any of that Stuff.
Also, i got no Email, maybe in the Spam Folder.... (then it would have been deleted)

So, you say, the games are completly done. ? (Turrican 1&2 recoded to run at the same speed and smooth at 60HZ ; with the new Music from Chris in place)

Really ?

Really ?

All games are done except for some small bugfixing / QA
Alot of extra work has been done compared to Turrican Flashback!

I expect release early next year - dont ask me when, I have nothing to do with that stuff!

[Torti-the-Smurf]

That are great news

Thank you so much Schlauchi

[ScHlAuChi]

Seems those are the final dates - it all took way longer than excpected, but in the end it will be worth it!

[fryguy]

I finally received my Collectors Edition of Turrican yesterday. Almost exactly two years after I ordered it. Too bad the Switch soon will be obsolete too, but the item looked pretty nice.

Define soon, Nintendo hasn't announced anything yet that I know of so it's going to be a couple of years still. And even if they release a new console... there is every chance it isn't going to have enough launch titles yet again so you'll have little reason to pawn off your Switch day one.
