  1. If you can find one, I’d go with the FZ-10. The Goldstar and FZ-1 are prone to drive failures that I’ve never seen on the FZ-10. My current FZ-10 was a yard sale pickup from a friend of mine. Initially it had a drive error, but he was able to get it functional with some simple relubrication of the drive mechanism (it had sat too long without use). I’ve never had an issue with it, even with burned media.
  2. Here's the weird one, I ordered another one on the 30th and have already received it (along with one of the Sunnyvale tees...got it on 1/4). No issues, although both of the Speakerhats I've received were probably unused returns (seals were undone, outer boxes kind of messed up). Not a huge deal at the price point, but worth noting.
  3. I did want to mention that they did get this taken care of quickly after David's response. I've actually ordered from them before (and since) with no issues, the weird thing here was how it said it had shipped in the same package as the shirt, but only the shirt was received (and that that package was listed at half a pound). Try as I might, that's the point I never seemed to get across.
  4. I'm basically just posting here to see if anyone else is having as much fun with Atari's order fulfillment as I have been (and to vent). I ordered a Speakerhat bundle during the Christmas sale (to give as a gift), ordering on the 26th of November (along with one of the Borregas t-shirts and a Yar's Limited). I received the t-shirt on 12/7 in a padded envelope, so I just thought the VCS would just be shipped separately. I went to the site and checked the shipping status the next day, and it said it was shipped, but listed the same FedEx tracking number as the shirt. That didn't seem right, especially since the listed weight is 0.6 pounds and 13" x 10" x 1"). I contacted Atari support and opened a case. Since then I'm just getting the same kind of basic, canned responses, saying that it will be shipping soon and apologizing for the delay, but I get the feeling that they're not getting the fact that according to their order system, it did already ship, but all I got was this (non-lousy) t-shirt. I'm already resigned to the fact that this isn't arriving in time to gift before Christmas, but I still feel like I'm on square one here. I keep asking for updates every 5 days or so, keep getting the same responses and it doesn't seem like there's anywhere to escalate the issue. I really don't want to have to get the credit card company involved, but another week or so of this and I'm not going to have much choice. Anybody else experience anything like this with their orders, or am I just the luckiest son-of-a-gun there is?
  5. And against my better judgement I just put a pre-order in for the XBOX One version. It's not like it will be the worst money I've even spent on a pre-order.
  6. Man, I've had this game for months and still haven't cracked the seal (or opened it at all). Such is the adult life...
  7. Judging from some of the other rubbish I'm seeing that retails for way more than that (not to mention Jag games...), I'm sure there are a couple of us who would be happy to pay that much for it. I'm not saying it's practical, but a $150 price tag isn't the barrier (impending recession be damned).
  8. Definitely looking forward to this one. Thanks to all the hard work put into it, all the way around.
  9. Definitely looking forward to this one. I already have Kings of Edom preordered and I'll do the same with this one on day one.
  10. I actually pre-ordered two (one in August and another in October...had planned for one to be a Christmas 2020 gift...so that's funny in retrospect). I received the All-In bundle for the October preorder on the 10th, but hadn't received any word on the August order. I ended up contacting support once they started sending out the "low stock" e-mails and they responded that they would be processing my order soon. That just arrived today. If you haven't received a pre-order, opening a ticket with support seems to be your best bet.
  11. I'd definitely be interested in at least a couple of them to try out.
  12. I just put my pre-order in (and picked-up another Evercade cart while I was at it...kind of loving that thing). Thanks once again Carl.
  13. I think it's pretty obvious that I meant that as a compliment.
