    Robinson's Requiem

    in Atari Jaguar

    Posted

    Hi all! :)

     

    I haven't been reading the forums for quite a while and was wondering if there were any new developments/hope reguarding the release of Robinson's Requiem. My JagCD could always use a new game.

    Rotary Controllers up for auction

    in Atari Jaguar

    Posted

    Hello,

     

    After numerous delays (including a broken hand) I have finally finished the last 5 of my rotary controllers for use with Tempest 2000. I just started a dutch auction for them on e-bay, so if you have any interest in getting one of them here is the link: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...item=1393520454

    Hopefully one day soon, someone with a jag development kit will program a couple pong type games that include rotary controller support. : )

    My first arcade machine!

    Congratulations on the purchase. You have just taken your first step

    into a much larger world. Here's hoping you have the space : )

    Like you said, price is relative. As long as you have fun that's all that

    counts. Over the past 4 or 5 years prices for classic arcade games have really shot up. These days there are a lot more people that just want

    that one arcade game they always loved. You just have to hope none of those people show up at an auction and want the same game as you.

    Cheers.

    Slight delay for my rotary controllers.

    in Atari Jaguar

    Posted

    Hello,

     

    Just a quick update.

    First of all, I'm sorry for the delay.

    I broke a bone in my right hand a week ago last Thursday and

    haven't been able to use it since. I almost had the controllers

    done, I just need to solder some wires and put everything in their

    cases. I will get them done as soon as possible, it's just a little

    difficult only using one hand. I'll let you know as soon as they are

    done.

    Once again, I'm sorry for the delay.

    Rotary Controler on Ebay - Only 2 days left!

    in Atari Jaguar

    Posted

    I think it's great your getting that much for it! I just remember years ago

    when I was making the first 20 of mine, some people were going nuts

    over the price. When I bought a batch of 25 of the optical encoders they

    cost $22 each. The jag controllers were $10, the box 3.50, switch $3.30,

    parts for the pcb that makes the optical rotary work with the jag $11.75,

    I think the knobs were about $2, I can't remember how much the wire

    was. Plus tax and shipping on all of the above of course.

    Then it took a really long time to make all the boxes by hand.

    I sold those at $75 each shipped. As far as I know, I'm still running a

    deficit on this project until I sell at least 2 of the last 5.

     

    Actually there's quite a lot of room inside the jag controllers. Most of it

    is empty space. I opened up newer one and there's enough room to get

    everything in there, even the switch.

    Tempest in the arcade was right handed, so I made controllers that were

    right handed. That's all.

    Jedijeff's rotary controllers- input requested

    in Atari Jaguar

    Posted

    Well, I got a lot more e-mails about these controllers than I thought

    I would, and it's only been a day since the first post. I am thinking of

    making a dutch auction for the 5 controllers. I realise this might make

    some people angry but it will give everyone a chance to get one. I

    should have them done by the end of next weekend (hopefully) and

    new pics soon thereafter.

    Any input would be apreciated.

    Thank you.

    Making the last 5 of my Jaguar rotary controllers

    in Atari Jaguar

    Posted

    I already posted this on JI and rec.games.video.atari last night. Decided to post here also to cover all the bases.

     

    Nearly two years ago on the rgva newsgroup I said I had most of the

    parts for 5 more Jaguar rotary controllers and that at some point in the

    future I would assemble them. Well, I finally started working on them

    this past weekend and should have them done in 1-2 weeks.

     

    So, if anyone is interested in buying one please let me know by

    e-mail: jeff__t@juno.com (that's 2 _'s.)

    The price will still be $75.00 which includes shipping and insurance

    in the US.

     

    Thanks.

    Atari Jaguar Rotary Controller on Ebay

    in Atari Jaguar

    Posted

    Hi guys,

     

    I've been out of the loop for a while but I'm slowly getting back in. I will be making about a half dozen (or so) more rotary controllers this summer if you can wait that long. Right now I'm a little strapped for cash though. Know anybody that wants to buy battlesphere? I have one for sale.

    I'll try to keep you guys updated on the progress of the new controllers.
