T2KFREEKER Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 I bought this a while back and I can vouch for it's excellence (",) It's hard as nails, but once you get into it, it's good. And of course it looks fantastic! I second this. Zaku is an amazing game and quite a bit of hard work obviously went into it. Hey, is there a possibility, even a small one, that there is a sequel in the pipeline? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest2k Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 does someone beat the Penguin that hold the LYnx in his hands? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCUltrapro Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Holy SHIT! This looks wicked, I had no idea that a project like this existed. I have a Lynx and just got myself a copy of Slime World which I actually deeply believe I had a copy of way back in the day when I first had my Lynx, and I'm now bidding on Rygar which also brings back deep memories from when I first had the little machine but this is the first independent title I've seen or heard about for the Lynx. Has anyone played it on here? Is it as good as it looks? God I'm tempted to buy this on my credit card lol. I need to check what the total would be inc p+p in pounds to get one sent to me in the UK. OOOOH the temptation !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+swlovinist Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 Do more need to be ordered to get a shipment of these made? If so, I am sure that we could promote it here to make that happen . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good question, is there someone who posts here on behalf of the company that did the game? Would be good to hear their opinion, I'd pay for a copy of this straight away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TailChao Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 Hi, I second this. Zaku is an amazing game and quite a bit of hard work obviously went into it. Hey, is there a possibility, even a small one, that there is a sequel in the pipeline? I've been working on another project since Zaku shipped. But I'm not ready to announce what it is right now. does someone beat the Penguin that hold the LYnx in his hands? This boss has a particular damage point on the big console he's holding. If you still can't find it, this playthrough video may help : Zaku : Level Stage Zone i know how you feel i have been waiting on backorder for 15 months now my lynx need something new to play Do more need to be ordered to get a shipment of these made? If so, I am sure that we could promote it here to make that happen . Good question, is there someone who posts here on behalf of the company that did the game? Would be good to hear their opinion, I'd pay for a copy of this straight away As I said on the previous page, Zaku's manufacturing has been delayed after the release of Star Odyssey. The best thing you can do is email Brandon on the Super Fighter Team homepage and let him know that you're excited about more copies of Zaku. He's been very busy as of late and may not be able to check this topic as frequently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari_afternoon Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 Ok, I guess I better email him about Zaku, too and thanks for the update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway thanks and keep up the good work, hopefully if any more copies are planned we will hear about it here? cheers again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+swlovinist Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 (edited) I know that there was a vague update given to many, but now that Star Odyssey is now shipped. Seriously at this point, I am more than happy to order another game, and encourage others to do so. Maybe the little Zaku followers can finally get their game! I emailed this...hope I get a response. I know that there was a vague update given to many, but now that Star Star Odyssey has been shipped, and now I bring up the age old question on Zaku. Several on Atariage are wondering when this will ship. Are you short orders for a production run to be made? How many do you need? Is there any more info that you can give on a shipment of the back orders?(been six months now for me). I know that I have asked this again, but how long should I expect to wait? I know that Star Odyssey took priority over this, but it would really be nice to have a more clear answer. Any new info would be most appreciated. Thank you for your time, Edited September 16, 2011 by swlovinist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCUltrapro Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 I emailed via the website and actually got a response from Brandon Cobb at Super Fighter, he gave the following response: Hello, Antony. Thank you for your interest in Zaku. > I saw the thread/article at Atari Age about your game for Lynx Zaku, > and wondered if it is in stock? > It is not currently in stock. The first 300 units of Zaku sold through just as our new RPG for the Genesis / Mega Drive, Star Odyssey, went into production. Thus we are waiting for the second set of 300 units of Star Odyssey to be completed by our factory before we can order a second set of Zaku. I apologize for this unfortunate inconvenience. > I’m very interested in purchasing a copy, is it worth ordering at this > stage? > You're welcome to place a backorder from the www.zaku-lynx.com website, though keep aware that it will be some months yet before the game is back in stock. Alternatively, you're welcome to wait and place your order once the new stock has arrived from the factory. If that is your wish, let me know and I'll personally contact you when that time comes. Have a nice day. -- - Brandon Cobb President, Super Fighter Team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari_afternoon Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 Yes, I got a very similar reply. Since it appears they will defititely do a second run, I´m fine with that. As long as it´s "definite", I won´t mind a few more months til ordering then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+swlovinist Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 I will take your answer, as it gives a better window of time than previously given. That is cool he got back to you. More months of waiting is not too long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twoquickcapri Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 It is not currently in stock. The first 300 units of Zaku sold through just as our new RPG for the Genesis / Mega Drive, Star Odyssey, went into production. Thus we are waiting for the second set of 300 units of Star Odyssey to be completed by our factory before we can order a second set of Zaku. I apologize for this unfortunate inconvenience. Order a copy of Zaku about a year ago. I emailed him a month or two ago and pretty much got the same reply. But my copy of Star Odyssey shipped yesterday. So hopefully it will not take to long for them to stock some copies of Zaku. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
