Albert Posted November 9, 2018 Author Share Posted November 9, 2018 Do the games get sealed before they go out? Seeing as you are testing them. Still that is good quality control right there! I do not seal the games, as I want people to play them! The boards are tested by themselves as shown here, and they are tested again after being assembled into cartridges. I think I've only had one DOA Jaguar cart since I started selling them, which is pretty good considering how many have gone out. The EPROM programmer I'm using also does a very thorough four-pass verification process on the chips after they are programmed, which helps eliminate chips that might be borderline problematic. ..Al 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Posted November 20, 2018 Author Share Posted November 20, 2018 Congratulations, you're probably the first person to get these (not including the copies purchased at PRGE)! In the last 24 hours I have shipped a huge amount of packages. All the pre-orders for these two games have been shipped, minus two orders that have some of the other new games as well. Enjoy! ..Al 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Saturn Posted November 20, 2018 Share Posted November 20, 2018 Thanks, that's quite an honor. I'm tearing into these now and will be playing for the next few hours. Never played DOtC before but from what's been said, should be a great experience! :thumbsup: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+atari2600land Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 I'm guessing there are still some Treasure Island Dizzy cartridges left because it let me buy one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted November 21, 2018 Author Share Posted November 21, 2018 There are still copies of both games, but both are over 50% sold.. I don't think they will last too long. ..Al 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColecoGamer Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 I’m really excited about receiving my copy of DotC! According to my tracking number, it will be arriving on Friday. Looks like I’ll be busy over the weekend! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machine Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 I decided to put up the Christmas decorations yesterday(yeah, I know) so I can spend this weekend being a bum and playing games. It's a good time to be a Jaguar owner! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColecoGamer Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 (edited) I decided to put up the Christmas decorations yesterday(yeah, I know) so I can spend this weekend being a bum and playing games. It's a good time to be a Jaguar owner! Congrats on putting up the Christmas decorations early! I went to the basement the other day where our decorations are stored. I saw all the boxes we have full of Christmas paraphernalia and then decided to wait until after the Thanksgiving Holiday to go through them. Yeah, I was feeling lazy that day. Lol Hey, if being a gamer means Im a bum, then Im a bum for life! Edited November 21, 2018 by ColecoGamer 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imstarryeyed Posted November 22, 2018 Share Posted November 22, 2018 Got my copies in today. They both look great but my jaguar is packed away. I live in South Texas so I assume others will be coming in soon too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+grips03 Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 Game arrived today Press #1 to start game if you have Jag controller The packaging is absolutely amazing. Game looks great. This is the first time playing the Amiga (Jag) version. I grew up playing a ton of the C64 version. Music during title/credit screen seems different, maybe a slower tempo, but I think that is how the Amiga version is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+grips03 Posted November 24, 2018 Share Posted November 24, 2018 I was wondering if during Raid the player is suppose to move so slow to the left and right. If you press back or forward it takes a bit for the swordsmen to respond. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
