Gummy Bear Posted June 7, 2019 Author Share Posted June 7, 2019 Awesomeness. Are you still offering them at the generous price of $100 per controller? Man I can't wait to get one. You should totally do some with those reproduction Pro controllers from starwander. That would be smart! $60 for the pad $3 for rotary dial and parts $2 for color changing led $1 for plexiglass You could swing those for $200 a pop and it would totally be a bargain. Haven't you got some shit games to make or something? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAVE 1 GAMES Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Haven't you got some shit games to make or something? Right. And shit games require a certain kind of controller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gummy Bear Posted June 8, 2019 Author Share Posted June 8, 2019 Right. And shit games require a certain kind of controller. Yeah, you've lost me there I'm afraid. I'm sure there's a pathetic, desperate insult there somewhere, just not getting it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAVE 1 GAMES Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 (edited) Yeah, you've lost me there I'm afraid. I'm sure there's a pathetic, desperate insult there somewhere, just not getting it. I don't know what you mean either. I just want my color changing led rotary controller for the awesome price of $100. Or have you since INCREASED the price?

Gummy Bear Posted June 8, 2019 Author Share Posted June 8, 2019 I don't know what you mean either. I just want my color changing led rotary controller for the awsome price of $100. Or have you since INCREASED the price? People are happy to pay for something that is well thought out and well made. I can see why this would confuse you. It's not just a case of buying a bunch of parts and shaking them in a magic bag, each controller takes several hours for me to make, employing a wide range of tools, many of which had to be bought or made just for this project. You see, it's a point of professional pride that I don't make/sell anything imperfect. That's the difference between craftsmanship and making a quick buck. If you still don't get it, and given your familiarity with complaints, take a look in this thread/forum, Facebook, Instagram, the web at large and see if you can find a single complaint from anyone that has bought one of my controllers. Now if you're quite finished, the door's that way > 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 Oh yeah, that's obviously what he's fishing for. That's two threads I've kicked him from today. Please carry on making your cool rotary controllers that many people are enjoying and ignore people who have nothing positive to contribute. ..Al 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I didn't already have two rotaries I'd definitely be adding one of these... maybe I need to make a 4-player WARLORDS? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LinkoVitch Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 People are happy to pay for something that is well thought out and well made. I can see why this would confuse you. Having played on one of these controllers I would have to say hand on heart if anything he is understating the quality of the product here. They are VERY well made, very well packaged and presented and IMHO look and feel like a factory produced official part (except for looking cooler than other genuine Atari Jag parts ) Mr Bear is also a pleasure to deal with and a jolly nice chap to boot. Just my 2p 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my 2p I second this. Very well made and a sight to behold. Had to kick myself of the demo unit at eJagFest as it was getting late. A worthy addition at this price as a premium rotary. Cant compare them to mine at all. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gummy Bear Posted September 14, 2019 Author Share Posted September 14, 2019 Out of stock again. I expect to have the next batch ready by the 20th. Ish... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adamchevy Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Has anyone used one of these on a 2600 with an adapter of some kind? I know their was a thread about the 2600 version of Tempest, and that it pretty much can’t be done correctly even with a Melody board. But after reading all of these reviews I would like to try it on Kaboom if that was possible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gummy Bear Posted September 28, 2019 Author Share Posted September 28, 2019 Back in stock. I have completed 5 of this batch, the next 5 will be completed by the 5th of October. This will be the final batch, sadly. Due to a change of employment, I just don't have the free time to comfortably make these anymore.
