+batari Posted March 30, 2020 Share Posted March 30, 2020 Hello all, These are crazy times for sure. We're stuck at home, and at the same time many of us are worried about finances, myself included, as funds from Harmony sales have always been used to fund production of Melody boards so you can play all of those amazing games from AtariAge! And we all need something to do too while we are holed up at home, so why not get yourself a Harmony cart to play those great Atari 2600 games, or better yet, use your Harmony cart to develop your own game! A big run of enhanced Melody boards is in production now, but this new run of Melody boards needs funding! So to ring in the month of April, Harmony carts will be deeply discounted, up to 20% off the already reduced prices! We are only offering a limited number at this price. After enough are sold to fund the rest of the production run of Melody boards, the price will go up again. As this sale may end without notice, get to https://harmony.atariage.com soon to get these low prices. Acceptable forms of payment are Paypal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, or a credit card. The standard Harmony cart is $39.99, while Harmony Encore is $54.99! What's more, we are lowering the shipping cost to just $3.99 in the US (international shipping will be $12 to Canada or $16 elsewhere.) For that one low shipping cost, you can order two! As always, we build Harmony carts to order so expect a lead time of about a week before shipping. If you need your cart right away, a small number of cartridges will be available from eBay as well. eBay orders have priority over all other orders and will be shipped out within 72 hours, though most likely eBay orders will ship the same day. For the convenience of getting your cartridge sooner, eBay prices are $5 higher ($44.99 and $59.99 respectively), and shipping costs may vary based on your location. These prices on eBay won't last either. If you have been putting off buying your Harmony cart, now is the time to act, because I am pretty sure that prices for Harmony will never be lower. 17 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garycimera1968 Posted March 31, 2020 Share Posted March 31, 2020 Can I send in my current Harmony cart to be upgraded to the Encore cart? I searched the forum at I see that it could be an option? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure, I will lower the price for upgrades to $15+shipping during this time, so anyone who wants to do this right now, PM me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emyxox71 Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 Hello last night I made the purchase! I've been thinking about it for a long time! indicatively when will I receive the package in Italy? considering all the mess because of Coronavirus. A big hug! #staysafeathome 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+SpiceWare Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 7 hours ago, Emyxox71 said: when will I receive the package in Italy? Probably hard to say at this point - I'd ordered the animated recreation of Doctor Who's The Faceless Ones on Blu-Ray from the UK as they're only going to release the DVD version in the states(and it's not even available yet). It arrived in Houston on Friday with a status of expected delivery by end of day Monday. It wasn't delivered, and the status no longer has an expected delivery date: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emyxox71 Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 I've waited a long time, I'll wait again. I'm in no hurry! Hopefully this nightmare will end soon! greetings from Italy! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikebloke Posted April 1, 2020 Share Posted April 1, 2020 I've ordered an encore from the UK, its about time I got one. I have an uno and very happy with it, but I can always have both I appreciate we are in strange times, it might take its time to get here. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Harmony cartridge can play games up to 32k in size, while Encore is a Harmony cartridge with 512k of extra RAM on board to play larger games. Also, we are working on some features for the next firmware release that will only work on Encore. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I already have a Harmony (which I have been totally satisfied with) but might be swayed to upgrade if there was a compelling reason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamemoose Posted April 9, 2020 Share Posted April 9, 2020 After a lot of debating, I took the plunge. I've had my eye on this off and on and didn't want to pass it up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
socrates63 Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 (edited) Order placed for an Encore -- thanks for the sale, @batari. I just got a 7800, and plugged in my first 2600 cartridge into an Atari console for the first time in almost 40 years. I look forward to revisiting the 2600 library.

Mikebloke Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 My order has arrived in the UK! so 2 weeks isn't too bad considering things, not here yet but should be in the next week or two. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juan_sanchez Posted April 17, 2020 Share Posted April 17, 2020 Just ordered an Encore one. Thanks so much @batari for the special offer. Time for testing things in real hardware is coming ? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikebloke Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 Yeah I don't know about Italy but I find it spends more time completing customs on this side than it does coming from across the world. It hasn't moved yet from the airport. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+evg2000 Posted April 21, 2020 Share Posted April 21, 2020 Looks like the OSX version is still 32bit? Any chance of a 64bit version? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

metzger130 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Just ordered one of the encores. I have been looking at it and since it is on such a nice sale I had to get one. Can't wait to get it and start playing all the atarin games and especially all the homebrew that is out there that I haven't been able to play since I didn't have a cart.

Mine arrived today, the ebay tracking went as far as the customs in the UK, but I didn't get any updates after that till my import tax bill came. Here's some pictures of it up and running! My 7800 is playing up, it ghosts a bit towards the right and the colours are a little washed out, looks better on my 2600! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emyxox71 Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Magnificent news. I can't wait to try this Harmony! I'll try on the 7800 too! You made me curious! Enjoy it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+batari Posted May 2, 2020 Author Share Posted May 2, 2020 Just a heads up to all: Although this was supposed to be for the month of April, I haven't had a chance to change the order pages. But, I expect to end this sale after this weekend. So if you want to take advantage of the lower prices, make sure you order before Monday.
