Gorf Classic CD Release Now official.

[Gorf]

Hey folks,

 

 

Im reposting this as a sepereate topic in case anyone missed it in

the other thread.

 

Well, its official. Scott and Terance have agreed and Gorf Classic

will be released on CD for now but I will talk to Scott to see the

kind of trouble a cart would be and see if it is worth it or not.

 

When and where I do not know yet but we are talking at least a

month from now befor I even take orders. I am doing this by

myself mostly so Scott and Terance can concentrate on the

contract work 3DSSS has right now. I dont want to take them

away from that as that is obligatory. There are a few folks I can

ask for help though. As soon as I have a realistic time line, I'll

let everyone know.

Great news. I hope this raises a lot of coin for cystic fibrosis!

[Goochman]

Im there dude

[+Guitarman]

Count me in!!!

[CrazyChris]

It's great to hear that all that

hard work won't go to waste.

[Gorf]

Yes and it will serve human kind, most importantly!

That is our REAL job here on earth after all!

[Video]

Awesome! I'm ready!

[jboypacman]

I shall quitely wait in hopes of a cart version .

I have bought a copy of the original release of Gorf, but plenty of people on my forum don't own the game.

 

I know you want make money for a good cause, but please consider this point of view : selling the game cheaper will make you sell more.

[Broonale]

Cheaper?

 

The price he has tossed around is quite fair already!

 

Especially considering all the proceeds go to charity.

 

.. IMHO, anyway.

It is a really good game going for a really good cause. It's the only way this game can come out is for proceeds to go to charity. They'll just have to save a little more.

[Gorf]

Not to mention the idea is to raise money. This game is for sale to support CF, not to supply a cheap game. Let's try to be selfless here.

[ls650]

Besides, what's the typical price for a post-Atari release? It seems like a real bargain to me!

That's not a selfless story, I just know that many guys considered the first price too expensive (it's not my my case, I bought the game at full price).

 

If you sell 100 games at $30, you could easily sell 150 games at $20 and get the same amount of money for your cause, not to mention that more people will play the game. That was just the idea.

Except that there is only a finite number of people buying jaguar games, and numbers sold will not scale exactly with price.

 

Seriously Pocket, quit it. This is a good cause and a fair price.

The price I give is just an example to get the idea. Has the price of this new release announced somewhere ?

Not officially, but an indication was given in the previous Gorf thread.

[Gorf]

IT will be a little MORE than the last price which was record cheap to begin with.

And it is well worth it!(IMHO)

[ls650]

If you sell 100 games at $30,

How many new Jaguar games have you sold for $30?

[sciarpo]

No matter the price on a Gorf release, it is worth it. It is going for a great cause. So what if you pay a certain high price. Helping out a greater good is worth it(unlike paying a high price for Battlesphere). Point in case-- the ridiculous rates of Battlesphere. I'll admit, I never played it(would like to but hey if I don't I can easily get on with life). When it recently went on bid, I actually was stupid and put a bid at $400( I'm not rich but I could have bid alot higher) but afterwards I was hoping someone would outbid me for that ridiculous price. Thankfully, I was outbid and I am glad to say I am not someone to pay $455 for a game that can be outdone on anything today for $50). So please release Gorf in whatever form, I will pay the charge in whatever form it comes out- it is for a great cause. And frankly if anyone rips me for my Battlesphere comments- Frankly, I don't care.

[Pocket]

Ok ok, it was just a suggestion to make you sell more copies

Why thank you diggs!

[Gorf]

Most people with a good heart dont care about the price so much. I think it will do well.

[Rick Weis]

do you have a "waiting list" for these? i know someone that wants one and would hate to miss out on getting him one.

 

Thanks!
