The Limited Run Games holiday release schedule is packed this year, with this week being especially busy featuring six releases across two titles. The big one for the week is undeniably Windjammers, the Neo Geo favorite that’s a bizarre fusion of Street Fighter and Pong. Players shoot a frisbee back and forth trying to land in their opponent’s goal, using the special abilities of their chosen character to tip the odds in their favor. The other game is Claire, a side-view survival-horror game where a woman and her dog search for her mother in a dark world, saving who they can along the way. Claire is available on PS4 and Vita, 2,500 copies apiece, while Windjammers is a bit more scattered in its version. The game comes in the usual regular version, but the Collector’s Edition ships in an oversized box with a full-sized official Windjammers-branded Wham-O frisbee included, blue in most versions but one in five come in bright neon pink. The PS4 regular clocks in at 3,800 copies, Collector’s at 2,500. Vita regular is 3,000 units, Collector’s at 2,000.

Limited Run Games has been responsible for a great many limited physical releases of games that wouldn’t get one otherwise, and it’s time to add Windjammers to that list. Windjammers will get a physical release for both the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Vita. We don’t know when exactly this physical title will be released, only that it’s coming soon.
Here’s Limited Run Game’s tweet about the game:

Is Windjammers worthy of a physical release? Read our review to find out!
The strange resurgence of Windjammers, an obscure Data East game that revolves around throwing frisbees, is truly a product of the internet age. It’s been fascinating to watch the 1994 arcade title skyrocket in popularity in the past couple years since it all started in such organic ways. It became a Giant Bomb video staple in 2013, and a small, yet spirited, competitive community popped up online. It eventually led to consumers jokingly, and then seriously, trying to see the classic game get a re-release or sequel. Now, four years after the resurgence began, developer DotEmu has lovingly brought the title to both PlayStation 4 and Vita.
For those that are shamefully unaware of Windjammers, it’s basically Pong mixed in with a fighting game. Players attempt to throw a frisbee into the back of their opponent’s goal, while the opposing player attempts to intercept the flying disc and send it back at their opponent. It’s a frantically paced affair, as the courts are small, and characters are constantly leaping in order to get into the proper position. Oh, and the walls are made of rubber apparently, so the frisbee bounces off them in a wild manner.
Or was it?I also didn't show the bit with the reptilians in Dimwood with their weakening magicfield. Betrayal at krondor walkthrough. Doubt it's much relevant anyway, though. I can't distinguish between that being an ordinary fetch quest, or a story-related clue. Click to expand.I remember doing that, now.
Will you be picking up a physical copy of Windjammers?
