cschell Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 Hello everyone, I just wanted to post a brief not that Cuttle Cart 2's are back in production. You can place an order for one now on my website. http://www.schells.com/cc2.shtml If you don't know what a Cuttle Cart 2 is, it's a very flexible menu driven multicart and 7800 development system that let's you load 2600 and 7800 games into your 7800 by means of a Multimedia Card. Full details are available on the webpage above. Thanks, Chad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPUWIZ Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 You probably have at least one suicide on your hands with this announcement. Considering that one guy paid $500+ for one on eBay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cschell Posted January 29, 2005 Author Share Posted January 29, 2005 Obviously I have no control over the secondary market. But there's probably at least one really happy person who got outbid at $499.00 And I'm very much hoping that soon there will be many more happy 7800 homebrew authors. That's the main driving point behind this decision. Chad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveW Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 I'm going to have to try and get one this time. I couldn't afford one last time, but i'll be damned if i'll let this opportunity pass again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cschell Posted January 29, 2005 Author Share Posted January 29, 2005 BTW, did you re-design the PCB for a different MMC slot, or did you manage to secure more of them? I secured more of them. A LOT more of them. They would only sell them in large quantities. Chad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cschell Posted January 29, 2005 Author Share Posted January 29, 2005 Not 1000's, only 500 actually. It doesn't seem like a big number, but given that I've never sold more than 238 of any of my products, it's pretty big to me. Actually the cost of redesign vs the extra cost of 500 sockets was about the same. So I decided not to go through the hassle (and nerves) or a redesign. I guess I would have done better with the collectors with a redesign though. Hey Al! Stop the presses. I want these labels printed in red. (Just kidding.)

Albert Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 Hey Al! Stop the presses. I want these labels printed in red. (Just kidding.) Just in time, as I was about to send the job to the printer. I can also add "Version 1.1" to the label for you.. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregory DG Posted January 29, 2005 Share Posted January 29, 2005 Hey Al! Stop the presses. I want these labels printed in red. (Just kidding.) Just in time, Just in time for me to make some last minute changes to my CC2 review in the 2005 Compendium! Had to change, "Sorry they're not available anymore" to "Get in on the second run now!"

J.Max Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 Holy Good God! MUST HAVE A CUTTLE CART 2!!!!!! Order placed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE146 Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 I passed on this the first time since I already had a CC1. But this time I think I will definitely go for it. Anyone here got a spare Pokey? I aint about to tear apart any of my 5200's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockin' Kat Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 I bought the pokey in my CC2 for $5 from best electronics so I wouldn't have to get it from another cart. They had a minimum order of $20 so I bought some Lynx accessories along with it... you could probably just get in on an order with some other people if you didn't want to buy anything else though.

Bratwurst Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 Can you open the cart without damaging the label to put the pokey chip in and replace the battery when it becomes necessary? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Mitch Posted January 30, 2005 Share Posted January 30, 2005 Does anyone read the manual? http://www.schells.com/cc2utils/cc2files.shtml Mitch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The post that holds the screw inside the CC2 is removed, you can just pop the cart open without worries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
