Don't click if you don't want the red pill. What did i just say above? I don't care if you hide your six paragraphs of politics (which I removed) in a spoiler tag, why did you think that was okay after I stated several posts above to not talk about politics? Next person who brings politics up will be kicked from the thread. ..Al 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apologies if you've answered this specific question before. With the explicit assumption that no answer will be construed as a commitment, is there any chance that CD support will be available by the time batch #2 ships? I know you've got a lot of other irons in the fire such as giving the LynxSD some love and developing the 7800 SD cart, just looking for an idea of where CD support slots in to that timeline.

npturton Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 (edited) Ive just created an account at Retrohq.co.uk and it seems my request re pre-order back in 2017 never made it onto a list :o( Did I have to pre-order on the Retrohq.co.uk website as well? Also on Retrohq.co.uk its called Jaguar GD not Jaguar SD ? Advise plz Saint Edited September 29, 2019 by npturton Addition Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retromills Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 The pre-order list didn't open until 19th August and yes it was through Saints website. As for the name change I'm not sure why that is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SainT Posted September 30, 2019 Author Share Posted September 30, 2019 I'm currently re-branding all my products to have a recognizable name and logo to move away from the generic "SD" badge. So now we have the GameDrive (GD) product line. As has been mentioned, the pre-orders are through the shop site directly. There was never any "list", and certainly nothing as far back as 2017. Saying you want one on a forum doesn't mean anything in this case, I'm afraid. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hastor Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 He said he ordered 200 PCBs, so next batch is 200 max. Not sure if there are any expected percentage of duds, or if any are reserved for press/friends/testers. As long as it isn't more than about 15 short of 200 I should make it at least 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UHATEIT Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 (edited) This may have been answered. But when the orders are filled and sent does the preorder # change to reflect the # ahead of you from then? As in if there are 200 in the next batch and you are #500 you can relog into your order and it should then show 300 I mean.

phoenixdownita Posted October 9, 2019 Share Posted October 9, 2019 3 weeks to brexit, so far the GBP is steady, probably it'll be a wash .... given SainT is busy with manufacturing the second(?) batch it will be a while anyway before I can actually order .... that and I don't have the cash right now 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SainT Posted October 11, 2019 Author Share Posted October 11, 2019 (edited) I've been made aware of some fun lies spread by an ignorant halfwit. "yes we get more and more reports by customers. Have a look to the jagsd pictures. Too thick pcb plus no rounded edges like the skunkboard. So if you have the wrong angle you smash the pins. Most likely the card also consumes more than the 300mA allowed like all other memory cards" Ok, lets take this one point at a time. "Too thick pcb" Ignoring the poor grammar, lets have a look at the evidence. Hey! Would you look at that! The JagGD PCB is THINNER than the stock Jaguar game PCB. So it's actually EASIER on the cartridge slot. Lets call that lie number 1. Next point -- "no rounded edges like the skunkboard". I assume this means beveled edges, as that's the important factor when inserting card edges into sockets. Hey, check that out, they're both beveled by the same amount! Who'd have thought? Sheesh, it's like the guy has never actually SEEN one of the PCB's. Fancy that? So, that's lie number 2. Lets see if we can make it a hat-trick. So, the allegation is that it "consumes more than the 300mA allowed". Ok, I run the cart off one single 300ma 3.3v regulator, which is about 200ma at 5v. So, yeah, we'll go with 3 lies. Sweet. A hat trick of lies. To what end, though? Not sure. Thank-you, and goodnight. Edited October 11, 2019 by SainT 24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
