Pixelboy Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Does the bright light come from the glare from the shiny new nameplate that you waited for sooooo long? Actually, given everything that happened in Eduardo's life this past year, I think he gave up on fixing the nameplate issue and just went with the nameplates he had. ... or maybe not, I'm actually not sure. I'm looking at the nameplate on my SGM right now as I write this, and I really don't see anything wrong with it. So either the original nameplate was fine and Eduardo was just hallucinating, or he actually managed to get new nameplates printed. Well, I figure we'll know for sure eventually, right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be great if Eduardo put that issue aside. Yes, this has been discussed among members here, and the consensus is exactly what you stated: The existing nameplates are just fine! When held up to the light and tilted at an angle, the "green hue" effect can be seen. If you don't see it at all, then you may have gotten a reprint! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 Eduardo responded to my email and has indicated the second SGM wave is coming! "2nd run hasn't shipped yet, but will early next year"... Hurray Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HARMIK Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 I hope Eduardo makes a ton of money off the eBay listings he deserves it for all his hard work. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ValkerieSilk Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 First one was a little over 600 bucks, 2 to go. I hope Eduardo makes a ton of money off the eBay listings he deserves it for all his hard work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When held up to the light and tilted at an angle, the "green hue" effect can be seen. If you don't see it at all, then you may have gotten a reprint! I had a look at the nameplate on my SGM again under sunlight, and the "green hue" is visible. It's not as visible under an artificial light source, so that's why I missed it the first time I checked. So it seems I have an "original" nameplate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordiway Posted December 25, 2013 Share Posted December 25, 2013 If you look at the clear one in the auction it has the green tint as well, but if you look at the picture of the black one in the same auction the one connected to the colecovision it has a very colorful nameplate that looks just like plate next to the expansion port.

Nognir Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Great to read that there is some positive news. I haven't paid for an SGM yet, because I haven't got a reply of my interest email to Eduardo, but I'm hoping to get on the list as soon as possible. Still have a lot of SGM games I want to play Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smurfbert Posted January 18, 2014 Share Posted January 18, 2014 I am little worried about mine, I believe I paid for it in nov/dec 2012, still have not received any confirmation for this, despite many emails to Eduardo. Well I am sure there is a reason for this nad my fingers are crossed that I will receive it soon then. Can't wait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait I also waited a long time, but Eduardo emailed me at 14th januari this year, and told me that the second batch will be shipped in april so glad that the SGM will come soon 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if this is all true, really Eduardo has no excuse not to drop in and let us know he's still committed to the folks on AtariAge who have supported him. It's extremely inconsiderate. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ghsqb Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 Eduardo, How about some news on my 2 SGMs that I paid for from the first run? Seems like you're getting going again, I'd appreciate an update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiLic0ne t0aD Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 DoctorTom, I couldn't agree more. I didn't realize how many people actually Paid for their SGM and did Not receive it yet.. That's unbelievable, no excuse for leaving customers hanging like that. . I would personally be pretty pissed if I was in there shoes and I can't afford to just have money floating around out there like that. I hope he bounces back and things get back to normal there.

racerx135 Posted January 23, 2014 Share Posted January 23, 2014 I paid for second Run back in May. I am OK with the wait as long as it eventually comes. I waited over thirty for this so I can wait another year or so... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
schuwalker Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Great. But if this is all true, really Eduardo has no excuse not to drop in and let us know he's still committed to the folks on AtariAge who have supported him. It's extremely inconsiderate. I ordered from the first run as well. Initially, I opted to wait for the nameplate snafu he was encountering (don't know if that's still ongoing). When I first heard that people on here were getting their units; I emailed him and told him to bypass the nameplate issue and send me a unit - I received no reply. Again, I emailed him again, stating the latter, and nothing. From this thread, I understand he's having life issues. I am and still continue to support the guy by purchasing his products. BUT, not to receive any emails from him about my current order and apparently other users onhere are... irritating none the less. Eduardo, if you're reading this, please contact me via pm or email - I just wanna to able to play the damn thing.... :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vayu013 Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I also payed for the first run and would like to receive mine, the nameplate doesn't matter anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
