Upcoming Jaguar Game Drive Cartridge

[Rave]

158!

 

I dove in 14 minutes after getting the message through to say it was live.

 

Really looking forward to batch 2

[NUT]

Pre-order Position: 160 😎

 

But unfortunately too late for the first batch 😭

[konnann]

Pre-order position 217. Looks like 3rd batch for me. Doesn’t matter. Thanks for making this happen @SainT

[racerx]

Done and done. Already up to 280, lol.

[GoldenGraham]

I submitted my pre-order 10 minutes in... and got pre-order number 68, hopefully nobody else got that number too?   So looks like that gets me into batch #1.    I like the fact you can download the manual and various other non-commercial games/demos from https://new.retrohq.co.uk/shop/atari-jaguar-sd-flash-cartridge too.  Great work SainT and many thanks once again.  It would be really interesting to hear how your sales go... i.e. how many orders you receive in the first hour, first day, first week etc.... just to give us all an idea of the user base.

So if I'm looking to prepare my sd card for this thing what is it capable of playing at the moment? All original jag games, jag cd? Any others? ST ports?

[orpheuswaking]

I'll be having to wait until later in the year. Glad to see so many have been preordered already though.

Well that sucks for me.  Here's hoping for a quick next batch   Congrats Saint!!

My confirmation mail was stamped 10:04 Eastern US time, I'm #268

 

Am curious about two getting the same number, mentioned earlier, are these counts accurate? No rush just curious.

The JagCD and JagSD wont work well together as the JagSD can emulate the CD drive, so I need the interrupt lines the JagCD would otherwise be using.

This actually relieves the stress i've had as i considered buying the CD drive.  Now i'm all set for carts and if we get CD too, that will be awesome.

 

I bought the Jaguar after reading this thread.  Wanted it for a looong time but games were not in the budget

Damn you Mojave! /shakes fist

Because of it's bloody annoying bug where it pushes mail to the foreground every 15 mins or so when you're running something else fullscreen (in this case Shadowrun Hong Kong), I'd closed mail... Fired it up when I came out, forgot my password, buggered around with that a bit and I'm #310. Bah, what's another six months? I've waited this long

[sandroace]

I would've been number 300 or so which is fine as unfortunately here in Canada due to exchange rate this cart will cost me $250 so I'm gonna have to hold off for now. Will get one in the future.

[TheNameOfTheGame]

#334.  Will be in a later batch then.  Well, glad to have it pre-ordered at last!

Good for you SainT that there is this strong initial demand.

 

I made over 115 different carts just for myself. No need to make more or use a skunkboard.

 

Thank you for making these.

Errord three times going to the cart, and paypal crawled to a time out... Finaly #85

[+Stephen]

Wow - #349.

[duiz]

#322, bought it as soon as I got home. Hopefully it won't take too long before later batches get sent out.

[Pinballs]

#212 for me. I would have been quicker, but some of us have work to do

 

More seriously, this thread has been quite a journey, and it’s amazing what Saint has achieved 🙂 

 

I’ll add the JagSD to my LynxSD and NGPC-SD 🙂 

[PeterG]

It will be very interesting to see what kind of numbers this project will achieve. Can't think of a single jaguar fan who wouldn't want one of these. 

Amazing really where we got all these years later. I still remember the days contemplating about wether to get an Atari flashcard or not because of the prices some demanded, then many years later the skunkboard and now this. Really awesome. Thank you SainT this is really great.

[duiz]

I know the cart comes with a manual, but has anyone said they would be making a case or box for the Jaguar SD? I would love to put it in the shelf along with my Jaguar games.

[jjona5]

Those of you that aren't getting in on the first batch. Maybe you'll get one that cd support is already installed.

What he said. Yes, thank you.

#331. A downside of being on the west coast of the US is waking up after everyone else has ordered their Jag SD.  I hope these future rounds are quick.

As a few seem to have missed it, CD support is still not guaranteed and will come in a later update if at all. Sounds like there's a good chance of it but I wouldn't expect it before any pre order have shipped. SainT will be working on making sure these are filled and working well  for a while I'd assume. That's in addition to the other flash carts he still makes and tinkers with. Don't sell your CD drive yet... unless it is to me, cheap!

Yes I would also like a cd drive at some point even if the sd carts have support. I collect hardware more than games.
