Games For Your Intellivision Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Exactly, nut...I just don't bother answering questions from trolls though. The INTV boxes are all the same height as Atari boxes. I have just had my printer tell me that I have to find another printer for my box, because they are getting a new press, and won't be ready until June...... I am thinking of saying 'screw it' and just getting the Gatefold box done from the get go. This will give us the time to get the box designed.

Rev Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 I vote for the gatefold to VERY closely copy the Odyssey 2 gatefold boxes... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutlawTorn71 Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Any update on the price increase for using gatefold boxes? My guy is having difficulties getting a die made, he only has a few options so I may be looking elsewhere .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ILoveIntellivision2 Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 Any update on the price increase for using gatefold boxes? Why would there be an increase in price? Do boxes really cost $15 each? The cart is selling for $30 shipped. The manual cost what $2 and $3 for the overlays? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya know, I dont know why I thought a gatefold box would be more that the 'normal' style. although maybe a printing shop would have some kind of one time set up fee???? I dont know. Either way, if some gets them made....just make sure they are sturdy! not like the Odyssey 2 pieces of crap boxes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DZ-Jay Posted April 29, 2012 Share Posted April 29, 2012 (edited) Any update on the price increase for using gatefold boxes? Why would there be an increase in price? Do boxes really cost $15 each? The cart is selling for $30 shipped. The manual cost what $2 and $3 for the overlays? Typical boxes cost around $10 each to print and cut. It all depends on the volume, but for home-brewed, this is rather small. A home-brew producer cannot really afford to have 10,000 boxes printed for a single title, when the market for vintage video games for Intellivision is a couple of hundred at most. Gatefold boxes require a new die be created and have a higher cost to produce. -dZ. Edited April 29, 2012 by DZ-Jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we will git lucky and the gatefold die cut will be the first one made so the cost will be the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
