This thread is finished. ...Or at least should be.

LOL Good riddance.

lol Is your son here, too?

Hah. With the truth. Like a man.

You're asking for money for a prototype - something you should have had to begin with. Why do you need so much money for a proof of concept? All you have is a controller. Congratulations. Honestly, the best thing you ever did was purchase the Jag shells. You could have made a killing selling custom cases for that hardware. That could have funded your prototype. Instead, you're now claiming that we're poisoning your project. AA brought you to the point you're at today with Gamegavel and such. So much for not shitting where you eat. Off you go. EDIT: i hope people don't think I'm trying to be "OUTRAGEOUS" again... :lolblue:

"Hey gaiz! Who wants a new retro system????"

Instead of actually PRODUCING a working prototype, hes asked for money. If someone will still blindly give him money, knowing full well that the only tangible thing thats been produced has been empty shells and some 3D renders, then I have a fantastic bridge to sell them. Sounds to me like: "Its Kickstarter's fault, so we're moving to Indiegogo. We'll give you weekly updates about our inkjet PCBs. Don't forget to give us money!" This is for Mike Kennedy/Parrothead (honor system, folks, for HIS EYES ONLY)

Anyone that gives money at this point deserves to have their money taken.

Retro Up Your Ass!

Why invest their own money when they can take it from everyone else? Mike Kennedy/ Parrothead's silence here is VERY telling.

The Continue?/Game Over screen from the Arcade Ninja Gaiden.

Good luck.

Yeah, right in the trash.

Welp, you got me! Just trying to be OUTRAGEOUS again! Ol' Giltygear's got that stick up his ass! Who's jimmies is he trying to rustle today????? Give me a break. This wouldn't have even been a blip on my radar until those pictures showed up and they cleared their FB page. I come from a place of frustration - frustration that now I have to pay top-dollar for a game thats creeping up on 20 years old. Modern games (save for very few) are not fun. They're devoid of any sort of originality. I love to shoot the shit about games, just like all of you. But within the last few years, these conversations turn into a game's "worth" or "value" and it makes me sick. Does this not frustrate anybody? That the thing that you derive enjoyment out of is being marketed for a premium price? Then maybe I'm old. Maybe I'm seeing this through rose-colored glasses. I should just let the profiteers come in and take advantage of the marketplace. You all can find justification for their actions. I'll just keep calling BS because thats ALL im seeing. Already have . New Slayer came out too. Great time to be a metal fan. Shatner makes a better horror movie villian...

Thats it? Thats all you have to say about this? $300 for a "base price"? Clearly, you're not doing this for any "community". Everyone's gotta eat, I guess, right? So much for "transparency." Because THIS is what this HOBBY has turned into - everyone wanting loads of money for a niche product because its part of the "trend." I don't take joy in watching people fail - I'm tired of all this bullshit "retro gamez are hot right now! big $$$ to be made!" I enjoy classic games. i enjoy games that PLAY well. This is my taste in games. Now, that taste has become a commodity, like some fucking cash cow that everyone is taking pieces from. The term "retro" gets slapped on EVERTYTHING that doesnt use 3D models so all you hipster sheep can throw your disposable income at it. It doesn't stop there. This is why the secondary market is so fucked. Collectards and shelfqueens buy everything up, hoard it, and call it an "investment". You know why common games are hard to find now? Blame the flippers, resellers, and "collectors" - they would rather put it on a shelf and beat off to it than see it go to someone who will actually ENJOY it and play it. Not time for playing games! There's money to be made! Last time I was in a brick and mortar store, these two douchbag collectards were arguing over how much profit game boy games would fetch in another year. They then proceeded to buy 2 large stacks of them (many of them multiple copies). When I asked how much a copy of Tecmo Super Bowl was for NES (because there was no price on it), the guy behind the counter proceeds to go to EBAY for a price, and quotes me $25. Tecmo Super Bowl is nowhere close to being worth that much. Its not "teh rarez", its a common as shit game, but because its for the NES (which is now along the lines of a boutique system apparently) that instantly drives the value up. This "RGVS" is a complete joke. This mysterious KS that Parrothead keeps touting is supposed to start "around" the 14th? Whats next, "The KS will start when I mention it in passing to my wife around the 14th, but not after mid-october..." Really? All I've seen you do is ask for money. You've shown nothing more than a shitty empty case with an inkjet-printed PCB. Congratulations, you're doing a helluva job. Money well spent on those Jaguar molds. But I'm sure you'll recoup those losses by jacking the price of the system up, or making a "limited edition" version for twice what you were already raping your supporters for to begin with. Oh, the "Gunlord" makers are making games for this? Out come the fucking vultures already. I'm sure the bloated costs of those cartridges will make up for the lack of invention and quality in their games. I can't wait for sacks of shit like Gamester81 and Pat the NES Turd to make videos of this crap. Just another hunk of plastic put on a shelf behind them to show off on youtube. I'm sure that'll be some free advertising for ya, right Mike???? Fuck the shelfqueens. Fuck the collectards. Fuck all the sheep that buys into this crap looking to make money off of us. And if you don't like what I say about it, then fuck you.

I've said this elsewhere, but I'm gonna LOVE watching this get shit on.

LOLOLOLOL How have I never heard about this???

Wheres Gamester81? Wasn't he a big backer of this? I'd like to hear his side.

Both of which are terrible.

GOG doesn't do this for any of the games that they sell that you may already own. i have a lot of the games that they offer for sale with legitimate CD keys, yet I would have to re-buy them to be able to use them in the client or put them in my library. No thank you.

I love how they wont let you play the games that i've already bought and own in Galaxy. I'm not buying Doom again, fuck 'em.

I had the client day 1 and I had no option like that - I had to reinstall the games I had. Luckily, I made 0 progress on any of them.

What year is this? How do you not have a TV with a composite input?

If this was a few years ago, I would be on the next flight out.

To this day, Mike Tyson is my biggest headache. The rest of the game I can coast through, but that last fight with Tyson is like a dead-stop on progress.
