I preordered the Limited Edition tonight. In all fairness, I can't play it a lot, as FPS games give me severe motion sickness. But the 3DO is my favorite game system of all time, and I wanted to support you for making new games for it. Thank you for developing new content for this special platform. I'm eager to see the great things you have planed ahead, and if he knows about it, I'm sure Trip is proud.

I know there have been some concerns about this for sale post. I'll stay clear of them. I can at least share my own buying experience for those interested. I purchased the $34 Pac-Land game. It was shipped promptly, arrived undamaged, and was exactly as described. It was a positive transaction. Hope this helps for anyone interested. - Blaine

https://www.ebay.com/itm/125669480011 Final day! Best wishes for a Merry Christmas! Here's the TLDR: The keyboard works when connected to both the Intellivision and the ECS. However, some of the keys work intermittently when pressed. Three of the keys are kind of loose and don't spring back up quickly. The synthesizer uses a form of foam between the keys and the circuit board inside of it to play the notes when the keys are pressed. I'd guess if this foam is properly replaced, the keyboard could play all of the keys consistently again. The original box is not exactly a shelf queen, so to speak. It's in rough condition. But it is present, and that's kind of rare and unusual for anything this age, which is kind of cool. The instruction manual, however, is not present in the box.

I marvel at what Rick has achieved, especially with the challenges he's facing. He truly has some love for the Jag and Atari culture. Much respect.

Wow! Thank you for the well-written, thoughtful replies. There's a lot of great info here, and I'll certainly be digging into it. I still can't believe I missed so much of the 8-bit Atari computer era. I had my head buried deep into a TI and a IIe.

There's been a lot of excitement around the public release of BigPEmu, and justifiably so! I was blown away with it. 100% cart compatibility with the Jag library and up to 4K upscaling. It's crazy cool! And Rich, the dev, is a remarkable guy facing extraordinary life challenges during the same time he's developed and updated the emulator. If you've been wanting to try it out, I've put together a helpful guide. I kept finding pieces of how to put it to use, but not a single guide with the complete package of both getting the emulator set up and getting the art files (box art in marquee format) working. This guide covers both. I think you'll love the emulator. It's the same one used in the Atari 50 collection to emulate Jag games. And it looks like Rick is starting to develop Jag CD support into it next! I'm a patron of his now, and maybe consider supporting Rich if you get the emulator and enjoy it. He's dealing with unimaginable challenges and could certainly use our kindness and support. Thanks! Blaine

I had never experienced the Atari 8-bit line of computers until this summer. I bought an Atari 400 while I was at the Southeast Game Exchange in Greenville, SC. In fact, I'm pretty sure the guy that sold it to me is a member here from the North Carolina area and sells 8-bits regularly. The 400 I got from him is in great shape, was completely tested, RAM upgraded, and worked exactly as he promised. It's led me down a path of discovery that I've enjoyed. Somehow, I just never had access to an 8-bit for the over 40 years they've been around until that day. To that end, I put together a video about my journey and what I've learned so far. You might even find something in there you hadn't thought about before. Yeah, I know the thumbnail has the Programmer Kit box. It's just meant to be representative of the system in a way that's recognizable to those unfamiliar with it. Also was kind of tough to find a great box image for the 400 at the time. But as much as I've learned already, and shared with others, there's so much more I still need to learn. I'd love to know your thoughts about it all. What do you think would be a great next step for me in my learning journey about the 8-bits? Thanks! Blaine

They really are great handhelds, especially with an IPS installed. GLWS. Free bump.

Thanks! I'd love to make a physical release of the game. I think it largely depends on how well the digital version does.It would absolutely help fund a physical release. I could program the carts themselves. But I'd surely need help getting with the right folks to produce the packaging and manual. Maybe they are right here on AA and we can get together soon.

Great! I'm on iPhone also. 13 Max w/ Safari. Glad it work for you.

Certainly! Here you go!

Strange. What browser and device? I'd definitely want to ask Shopify about it if there are issues accessing the website. Let me know any way that I can be of help.

Hello! How much are you asking for the 2DS? Didn't see a price on it. Thanks!

Whoops! I am so sorry. I live with a genetic vision disability called RP. Sometimes, I miss things like that by mistake. I'm glad you got the computer and that it went to a great collector home like yours!

Did this ever sell? If it's still available, I'll take it. PM sent.
