There is a waiting list you can sign up for, they haven't shipped any, and I think only Albert knows who is on the list and where - though I don't think the order matters there, we'll all likely be notified at once, but I'm not sure about that.

That's correct, I have a rather lengthy waiting list, and the plan is to go through them in the order names were placed on the list. It's certainly easier if I were to just notify everyone at once, but I want to be fair. ..Al 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I signed up for the preorder at retrohq on August 21st 2019. My current status there is "389 in front of you.". Should I just wait and finally my order will be processed, OR should I also sign up at AA? I only hope not no end up later than my current 389th place in the queue.

Hastor Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 (edited) You should sign up at AA either way, it isn't a promise, just a chance to order at that time. Take whoever gets to you first, which would likely be AA given your number. Regarding the list order from RetroHQ, it was said a while back that it wouldn't affect the order on AA as they didn't want to exchange sensitive data, and would be extra work as well to verify that everyone is ok with it. The AA list is just in the order it was received. Again, if anything changed and I missed it or am wrong, lemme know!

uicr0Bee Posted October 23, 2020 Share Posted October 23, 2020 Thanks. I added my self to the waiting list in Store section. Hope this was the right place to do it. I forgot to mention earlier that live in Poland, Europe, if that's important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg2600 Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 @uicr0Bee one of the European retailers may well get some that you'll be able to get a hold of. I'm not sure if SainT is going to fulfill that RetroHQ list any further. I think there were over 800 on the AA list at one point, at least a month or two or longer ago. Stone Age Gamer say they are supposed to carry the JagGD though no clue when. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harmonyFM Posted October 25, 2020 Share Posted October 25, 2020 Oh man, that’s wonderful to hear! A boon to Jaguar accessibility that will have echoes probably as long as people are playing their Jags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samson7point1 Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 Maybe I misunderstood, but I thought this last batch was _the_ last batch SaiNT was making and selling directly. Basically if you’re going to get one at all going forward it’s going to come from a reseller like AA. Is this correct? Is AA sufficiently ramped up to sell these that there’s a chance of getting one before the end of the year (assuming you’re sufficiently close to the start of the list)?

If I receive the first batch in time to ship them before the end of the year and you are sufficiently close to the start of the list, then, yes. The unknown variables at the moment are when I'll receive the first batch and exactly how many I will receive. That should be worked out soon. ..Al 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KraZ Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 (edited) Just received my Jaguar GameDrive over here on the "left side of the island across the lake" in sunny-ish California (it's almost November and it does rain here sometimes). Not far from the original Atari HQ's. A quick note here to again send a *thousand* thank you to @SainT for all the hard work all these years. I have been lurking since 2016 and patiently following the development. You rock! I'm am curious what kind of plastic is this made of? It feels very... special..?!? almost like it's made of some kind of fiber?!? Feels expensive, very dense and hefty. I'm a fan just looking at it and I have not even plugged it in! That fold out manual is a great touch as well. Edited October 27, 2020 by KraZ 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just had a quick look and the nylon sintering printers seem to be at least an order of magnitude more pricey than FDM printers. They remind me of the z-corp powder deposition printers I used to have to maintain, though those used print heads that squirted out binder into the powder bed. Hopefully the sintered nylon ones are less of a pain in the ass to run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neo_rg Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 Had some SLS printing done for a project and it's so much better than plain 3d printing there is no competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

schnuth Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 After this last batched shipped I moved up to 208. Glad to see some folks are starting to get these. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Stephen Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 152 in front. Definitely gonna be getting this from Atari Age. Places original order on 8/19/2019 - I sure hope I don't miss out on the initial AA batch. I can't believe the demand for these things - at times it seems like there's only a few dozen Jag users out there! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
