Kiwi Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 From that update video on this facebook page, he's aiming for late October and apologized for the delay if I heard him correctly. The boxes should be all printed since there's a video of it printing on their facebook page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opcode Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Hi all, Long story short: We are estimating Penguin Adventure and Gradius shipping to pre-orders in early October, based on suppliers estimates SGM 3rd run shipping second half of October, again based on suppliers estimates. Next 4 games and completion estimates: Donkey Kong(70%), Pac-Man DX(90%), Lady Bug(30%) and The Maze of Galious(30%) Pre-order for next 4 games to start after Penguin Adventure and Gradius start shipping Pre-order for 4th run of the SGM to start after 3rd run starts shipping We underestimated effort required to create all those things from scratch (packaging templates, PCBs, find supliers, etc). Everything is brand new, except for the plastic cases Next 4 games and SGM should go smoother, since we now have all the templates and suppliers in place. Boxes for all 4 games have been created, 2 boxes already printing Our sincere apologies for the delays. We are working hard to get everything shipped ASAP. Please check our facebook page for videos, including videos of the boxes printing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GraziGamer Posted September 25, 2016 Author Share Posted September 25, 2016 In case you were wondering about the status of our pre-orders. More news soon... *-* 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Phruby Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 Just wondering what the status is of preshipping the SGM and cartridges to Atariage. It's mid October. Will we orders being filled in November? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevinMos3 Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 When will they be available to purchase for those who missed the initial pre-order? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIAD Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 You can order thru the AtariAge Store at anytime... but i'd wait until word of their actual release/availability due to all the constant delays/release timeframe pushed back month after month. Just how things sometimes go in the Homebrew world and patience is a must. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phattyboombatty Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 There's a new video that Eduardo posted on YouTube. I'm not sure why they didn't update us here. Sorry to bear these tidings, but you can expect another delay. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opcode Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Ok, sorry for lack of updates. Here is where we stand now: - Game PCBs were received a couple of weeks ago, but the manufacturer forgot a small detail: problem the control logic. Boards were returned, and they are now reprogramming it. - SGM PCBs are being assembled now. Should ship soon. - Packaging was finally shipped. But it is a long trip, by sea. We are talking about literally half a ton in printed material. We have some pictures... 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+cmart604 Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 Wow, some very cool looking boxes and catalogs. Can't wait to see these in person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPR Posted October 13, 2016 Share Posted October 13, 2016 This is just so damn cool! I wish more people were a bit more understanding that you guys are doing this in your spare time having real day job and personal issues just like the rest of us. The fact that you guys are getting all of this done, even if there are delays (which I personally don't have an issue with) just continues to blow me away! And this kudos isn't just for Opcode but for ALL of the homebrewers who are making games and keeping our childhood gaming system alive! THANK YOU! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
128Kgames Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 There's a new video that Eduardo posted on YouTube. I'm not sure why they didn't update us here. Sorry to bear these tidings, but you can expect another delay. Sh*t happens, but at least they figured out the problem and are getting it resolved. One thing to note: Eduardo is killing me with that DK Arcade running in the background! Sell it (again) already, please! Keep up the good work over at OPCODE games... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pixelboy Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 One thing to note: Eduardo is killing me with that DK Arcade running in the background! Sell it (again) already, please! Yeah, I was thinking the same thing while I was watching the video. I was almost expecting him to turn around at one point and say "Oh, by the way, watch me play DK for a few minutes, just so you can see how much this game kicks @$$." 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColecoDan Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 you mean he was talking on the video, I was just watching DK in the background the whole time. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jblenkle Posted October 14, 2016 Share Posted October 14, 2016 Exactly!!! I ordered Penguin Adventure and Gradius way back when and then basically forgot about them. They'll get here when they get here...I like surprises in the mail!!! This is just so damn cool!

opcode Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Does Atariage store know who was on the Special Edition pre-order for Gradius? Yes, they know.

Hitachi Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 I missed out on getting in on the 3rd run of the super game module. Does anyone have an extra they'd be willing to sell? Please PM me, I really want to get one. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
