Stage_1_Boss Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 If the longbox adds to the cost, make it an option for shelf queens who have to have things look nice on their shelves. I think a DVD case is fine for most of us. What about a CD in a sandwich bag with SoulStar written in black marker? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+madman Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 What about a CD in a sandwich bag with SoulStar written in black marker? If the game plays, then sure. I'd stick it in a slim line CD case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Austin Posted September 3, 2017 Share Posted September 3, 2017 What about a CD in a sandwich bag with SoulStar written in black marker? It better have a huge, bolded "64" somewhere in the title. Otherwise people will know it's a fake. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leech Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 SoulStar: The Maths Are Done Edition I want one of these, but take your time, the Jag just did a little less than 400 USD damage to my wallet (had some games missing from my library I figured I eventually had to get from Songbird...)

Paul Westphal Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 OK I fired up the Jag CD today, and Guess what? It works, but I still have the buggy sandwich bag version of Soulstar The prospect of this coming out is why I have not sold My Jag CD.

steve-vx Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 Are there any news regarding the production / release of Soul Star? Id order straight away if I could and I wouldnt argue about the price either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwedenLynxer Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 I would like a finished/fixed version of SoulStar, yes. I would gladly pay £40 / maybe more. Would this be an "official" release with the blessing of Core Design (or whoever now holds the rights to the game) ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeefMan Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 (edited) I hope this happens, would love to see the original style tri-fold case and color manual reproduced for this. Edited October 11, 2017 by BeefMan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neo_rg Posted October 11, 2017 Author Share Posted October 11, 2017 Those are pretty expensive to do properly. It'll more than likely be the normal style box that they use for carts. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leech Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 These needs to go into my collection. A lot of the JagCD games kind of feel to me like the current VR scene, where there are a lot of unrealized potential. This looks like the sort of game with the potential to fulfill the power the JagCD had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This looks like the sort of game with the potential to fulfill the power the JagCD had. The JagCD has no power other than reading games off CD. It is no more powerful than the Jaguar with a cart, it only allows more storage space. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really was a badly designed toilet. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leech Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 I knoe that... one of the huge shortcommings of the Jag was always storage. Granted one could say the JagCD came out at a time when consoles were only barely breaking away from the tendency to have the CD filled with pointless FMV. But having more maps and textures for AvP for example would have been awesome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeterG Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 (edited) More storage space, but less instant access (as you lose the 4mb of ROM you can store assets in). It really was a badly designed toilet. I really wonder about the reasoning here. I mean sure they probably wanted to keep costs down but what a missed opportunity. If the add on is released this late (and they were already trying to compete with the newer systems with the request for more textures etc.) and if they release it anyway - nevermind the low number that is circulating about 20 000 units- why not give it some extras to increase the performance? Seems odd they didn`t just cancel it too in hindsight. I am very glad to own one and it works to this day but it never stops to amaze me how little thought through it seems to be. Probably said this a thousands times already but I could not believe at first when I heard the story that at first they did not even knew how to do the lid section of the unit. And for the first dev units they just had a magnet holding the cd in place because all they had was the idea that the cdrom sits on top of they jag. Now it seems that there wasn`t really anything about this unit really thought through, just that they wanted to have CD playing on the Jag too. But in the end it doesn`t really matter when I think how much good time I had with the VLM Edit: Not too be completley off-topic: Can`t wait for the glitchfree version of Soulstar still.

leech Posted October 11, 2017 Share Posted October 11, 2017 Seriously! The VLM was what I used on an almost daily basis up until the laser died, in which case I found one on eBay for 10 dollars shipped from China. Replaced that and it's worked fine since. Though the little clip that held the lid down snapped as well, so got a new one from Best Electronics. Do we have any updates on the fixed Soulstar?

Tidus79001 Posted October 12, 2017 Share Posted October 12, 2017 Count me in when the game is ready. Are you taking pre-orders yet, and if so how to sign up for a copy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neo_rg Posted October 17, 2017 Author Share Posted October 17, 2017 Not sure how people feel about having an overlay for the jag pad, the game makes use of it for the secondary weapons. I'd like to include it but have it as close as possible to the original ones, glossy print and slightly raised in a bobble over the numbers... Thoughts? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
