Segataritensoftii Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 I really, really wish there was an Atariage download service. I'm just really tired of missing out on all these limited run games that I can never afford. And are never released on ROM websites so I can play them.

ColecoDan Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Does anyone know if this should work ok on the colecovision atari adapter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UKRetrogamer Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Is the pre-order list still valid? It seems the last post/update to that thread was way back in 2008. If so, could I reserve cart No. 61? I find referencing 2 threads a little confusing. Should I be marking my pre-order here or in the older thread?

Midnight Synergy Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Fantastic... that's an unbelievable port. This will be a must-have for sure! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2600onsunnysideflnj Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Hot damn! That new video of the gameplay is unbelievable! I cant believe how fantastic it both looks and sounds!! Holy Moley! So again, please count me down for one of these suckers. $75 is expensive, but it is well worth it for this beautiful gem! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toymailman Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 I would like to be on a pre-order list. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranorve Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 really, i would like to be on a pre-order list. The topic with an incomplete list of 200 orders it's locked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubular Gearhead Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Yep, this looks fantastic. Definitely put me on the pre-order list whenever and wherever there is one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tremoloman2006 Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 For those who think that $75 is too high: Using the US Inflation calculator I converted $75 USD in 2011 to its value in 1980. It came out to $27.24, just around what Atari charged for new titles back in the its heyday. First Star is taking a slice of the earnings from the sale of each cart and also includes the costs involved in creating the box and manual. Compared to other homebrews this may seem expensive but with all the YEARS of work that went into this I consider it a bargain! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moycon Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 From what I am reading (based on a quick glance through the thread) this is merely an announcement thread and I'm assuming no post made within this thread will actually reserve a copy for a person. That said has it been announced when the pre-orders will be available, if they will ship in time for X-mas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Compared to other homebrews this may seem expensive but with all the YEARS of work that went into this I consider it a bargain! I agree. I think $75 is a great price for a limited-edition game. Just image how much this would be worth now if it was released back in the 80s and there was only 250 copies made. The best thing though is that Boulder Dash is a really fun game. I'm sure I will get many hours of fun out of this cart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abaudrand Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Is there a PAL version available? or will it be NTSC only? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Andrew Davie Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Is there a PAL version available? or will it be NTSC only? The game is switchable between PAL and NTSC, so you can play anywhere with just the one cart. Cheers A 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+bfstats Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 As previously stated, this is assumed to be nothing more than an announcement thread and not a pre-order list. But just in case, I am expressing my support now. It's a great release, and those responsible deserve MUCH credit from the community. I'd like to buy one, and I hope the producers AND ultimate owners are happy with the results of this sale. However, in case demand exceeds supply (likely), I would suggest, Albert, that you prepare for the unruly hordes to storm the castle!

JEFF31 Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 Number 155 on the old list. Definitely still want this. Hope I'm on at the right time when the pre-order list opens up - this will sell out fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
