Songbird Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Happy New Year, Atari fans! Hope you are enjoying the recent holidays and spent time with friends and family. I just updated the Songbird catalog today with some cool items to kick off the new year, including: Protector (original 1999 release) - Back in stock for a limited time. Only 16 carts available, and this will be the last batch of carts to include the original box and manual from the 1999 release. World Tour Racing CD - Back in stock with the new mastered full-color disc straight from Telegames! Protector SE Platinum collection - This is your chance to get Prot SE in a clear cart shell, the Resurgence CD expansion, and the CGE edition of Resurgence all in one collection! Quantities are very limited and some of these will go on eBay as well. Plus, I have been working on a new micro-project for the Jaguar over the holidays, and the result will be a new game on cartridge published very soon! Stay tuned for details. Finally, I have not forgotten about Lynx fans! I'm getting more carts built and will have all Songbird games back in stock sometime in the first quarter of 2017. After that I may resume one of my Lynx projects since I will have the ability to get more carts produced. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

82-T/A Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Just ordered the Platinum edition... I really shoudln't since I'm looking for a house, but I can't help myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
82-T/A Posted January 1, 2017 Share Posted January 1, 2017 Oh, can you add me to the list for the microproject? Also, for anyone who attempts to order... the checkout doesn't work if you're using Microsoft Edge browser (default in Windows 10). You must use anything else, including Internet Explorer (which Windows 10 still comes with). As soon as I switched to IE... I could click the "+" button and complete the order through PayPal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Songbird Posted January 1, 2017 Author Share Posted January 1, 2017 I just tried the Songbird shopping cart in Edge, and all of it worked fine for me -- I could click on the plus signs to add items to the cart, and also click the "Proceed to checkout" button as well. If other people have issues, please let me know. Maybe someday I'll upgrade to a modern cart system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
82-T/A Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Great news! Hey, you're in Coral Gables! I'm down the street in Cooper City (between Pembroke Pines and Davie). I just tried the Songbird shopping cart in Edge, and all of it worked fine for me -- I could click on the plus signs to add items to the cart, and also click the "Proceed to checkout" button as well. If other people have issues, please let me know. Maybe someday I'll upgrade to a modern cart system. Hey, sorry to bug you. Did you see my e-mail about delaying shipment? If you don't mind waiting to ship it for a week or so, so I can make sure I'm home when I get it. Thanks! (the Platinum collection) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrekMD Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Hey 82-T/A, yep not too far away. Both in South Florida. That means we are not freezing like the rest of the country is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+madman Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Oh, can you add me to the list for the microproject? OMG there's a list? PUT ME ON THE LIST PLZ K THX!!!!! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KidGameR186496 Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Hey Carl,i might not be in the right position to ask you this but is it true that you have Jaguar Bombeman's source code from Mike J. Mika? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Songbird Posted January 3, 2017 Author Share Posted January 3, 2017 It turns out I'm already out of original Protector manuals, so all orders of Protector will include the original outer box and a home printed manual. Sorry for the confusion on this. Also, attached is a small teaser graphic for the micro-project. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Songbird Posted January 3, 2017 Author Share Posted January 3, 2017 Another change of plans. After trying to print one Protector manual at home and being really unhappy with the results, I ordered a short run of new professionally printed glossy manuals. It will delay Protector shipments by about a week, but I think customers will be much happier with the results. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KidGameR186496 Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 Hi Carl, i aslo have another question for you...do you plan to release Virtual VCS for everybody to enjoy? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHYhc-MmcMg&ebc=ANyPxKq-bsONRdY3IX851tZAmkICZTJ2v-CTtPWqa4BpfjkLhEW80MCX_eHL-vpVEeZn_pH7Ck308XPVkJx1WNmwR75_KDqljQ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guitari Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 I would love to see both these things but from experience I know that Carl likes to surprise us all with releases once they're actually ready to order. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stage_1_Boss Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Yay, there was a Protector left. = ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Songbird Posted January 12, 2017 Author Share Posted January 12, 2017 Good news! These arrived: so now I can ship out all of these: By the way, I still have a few original Protector carts left. Thanks for all the orders! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+save2600 Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 Wow, looks like a LOT of stuff going out! Good to see so many people supporting the Jaguar. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guitari Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 Carl do you have a protector manual I can buy? I have both protectors but two SE manuals. Unless they're the same just with the gold SE sticker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Songbird Posted January 13, 2017 Author Share Posted January 13, 2017 When I first released Protector SE, I used the gold "SE" sticker on the box and manual to differentiate the Special Edition release. Eventually I switched to a separately printed box and manual, and (just in the last year) a new cart label as well. Send me a PM with a photo of what you have for boxes and manuals and cart labels, then we can go from there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
