Daverey1956 Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I got a notice from the Atariage store that my order statis had been upgraded. Went to my account and it shows item being shipped. This was on Dec 17. it had a tracking number with link to track package. Anyway all it shows is shipping label has been created. It's now the 21st and shipping status from USPS shows shipping label has been created. So I take it that there is no product to stick shipping label on.

I never print postage unless I have a package to apply the postage to immediately Postage was printed at 4:16pm on Saturday, which means it was with a large batch of packages I brought to the post office on Monday. Usually the first time a package gets scanned is when it goes through Austin, but this time of year all bets are off. I'll keep an eye on this tracking number, though, to see what happens with it. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More than likely the package will be delivered without any of the tracking information being updated on their website or not untilnthe day it is delivered.

+nanochess Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 You need to use the DOUBLE weapon to shoot upwards and open the way, if you have also OPTION and MISSILE it's easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Master Phruby Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 (edited) My SGM and Gradius should arrive today. Now the question is do I wrap it up or open it. I guess it depends on who gets to mailbox first. Edited December 22, 2016 by Master Phruby 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Darrin9999 Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Received my games yesterday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deltronik Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I have yet to receive an update from the AtariAge store to my pre-order placed in June. Are you guys still working on shipping out orders, should I expect an update soon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opcode Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 AA should receive more SGMs this week, and a few more in January. As for games, we have the remaining orders shipping next week. 1st and 2nd run SCARTs are also shipping in January. No more outstanding orders after that. But Grazi is cooking up a nice announcement here in the meantime... 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opcode Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 BTW, I have seen a few comments about Gradius being hard. If that is your case, I suggest you try Easy mode, Auto Fire and Auto Power-up. You can then use an Atari joystick. I have no problem finishing the game using those settings. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deltronik Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 (edited) Thanks for the update, I'll patiently await my SGM and Gradius BTW, for those that aren't familiar with Gradius already, it can be VERY challenging. Auto fire is your friend, Gradius kills my thumb on the Famicom due to lack of that feature. Edited December 22, 2016 by deltronik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Master Phruby Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Just spend the last hour playing Gradius. It is a hard game and really fun. I'm amazed how fast everything moves on the screen and how many enemies there are. I love the packaging and the SGM presentation. I need to order Donkey Kong and Pacman when they become available. Great work guys! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldschool80skid Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 I now have a super game module!!! As stated by others, this has the quality and presentation of a commercially produced product. The manuals, packaging, and product compliment this 30+ year old console perfectly. Now I need to stock up on opcode SGM games starting this January. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiLic0ne t0aD Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Mailman just came.. Penguin Adventure LE is now in hand, just in time for Christmas and my upcoming birthday. It was worth the wait.. The packaging looks phenomenal, very professional. I can only imagine how the game plays, looks and sounds.. I can't wait! I'm going to try to hold off opening it until Christmas.. Though this may be tough to do. Thanks to Al, Ed and Grazi on a top notch product. Happy Holidays to everyone! Cheers 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabriel Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 And, my SGM arrived today. Played some Buck Rogers Super Game on it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opcode Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 In retrospect, 2016 didn’t go as smoothly as we had planned or hoped, but fortunately we got most of everything we had planned without compromising quality. And we are pretty happy with which we have accomplished. We are even happier with all the feedback we have been receiving the last few days. That is when we realize that all the stress we had to go through and all the hard work involved was totally worth it. So it is time to finally thank everybody that stood behind us during this year, those who never lost faith we would deliver. Thank you so much for supporting us and staying with us! Hopefully 2017 will be even better, with more games, more surprises and, God permits, that things go more smoothly. A very Merry Christmas for all our friends here, and a New Year full of happiness, health and games. Sincerely, Ed and Grazi 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+stupus Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 You didn't have any of the new packaged sgm units left from this run, correct? Will you be announcing more of those as well? Will this new run be identical to this current run with the new packaging? Thanks again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+retrogmr Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Just wanted to tell Eduardo & Grazi that the games were all TOTALLY worth the wait. Packaging is top notch, games are fun (and challenging), and there's still more to look forward to! Now if only I could buy one of those slick gatefold boxes on it's own for one of my SGM's.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+evg2000 Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 I would be interested in a gatefold box for the SGM if they are available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bloodnose Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 The reason some of us are subscribed to this topic is so we can learn when the next run of the SGM is available so we can finally participate in this awesomeness. In the meantime, we're just watching everyone receive theirs, and hoping one day we can join the cool kids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+stupus Posted December 25, 2016 Share Posted December 25, 2016 Yes, an option to buy the new gatefold box with any new paperwork for the sgm would be a great option for those of us with multiple sgm units from the first 2 runs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
