killersquirel Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 I can't believe that we are in April already, but I was wondering what is happening with the early access for the Phoenix? Is April still a target month for getting these out? Is there a timeframe of when it will be sent out in April? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only missing part of the puzzle is finalizing the Firmware Other than that, everything else is done I'll let Brian (bmack36) give you more details Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I incorrectly assumed part of the point for the early access was that we got to also experienced a working state maybe not final Phoenix firmware (since you stated before the ability to update the firmware is built in … like adding FPGA cores), therefore still giving you a chance to provide the early access owners with the hardware AND allowing you to work on the firmware for the full release and simply updating the firmware for the EA systems. I'm cool with a delay, we want a working system after all and thankfully I'm not low on hobby's to keep me busy ;). I do have other concerns but I'll leave that for another day Edited July 8, 2019 by Loafer added a comment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retroillucid Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Today, we've received one of the last missing pieces of the puzzle! The Phoenix SD Cards 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loafer Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 (edited) Excellent, love progress pics! "The official CollectorVision Phoenix Launch is going to happen this August 9th (to 11th) in Phoenix, AZ at the Game on Expo*. " Does this mean this is when the early adopters will also start getting their Phoenix console? Edited July 9, 2019 by Loafer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could even be a bit earlier than that! We just don't want to give a solid release date, just in case... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loafer Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 That's very fair and the right way to go. When you know for sure the date, then spring it on us (but still very cool to know it's possibly coming sooner rather than later). We didn't see any post by Brian, was there something specific worthy of an update to mention on the firmware? Is the regular edition still supposed to come out in August?

Trust me, we all can't wait to say: ''We're shipping!'' As for Brian, I can't speak for him, but I know the Phoenix team is super busy at work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
