+Andrew Davie Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 Thanks guys for all your work. The game is great, the packaging and contents are excellent and it's made all the better by being an officially licensed game. Now, I'm off to play another game before I have to go to work this afternoon. Great A review in the store would be really appreciated. I kind of live day to day in the hope that someone will post something. Cheers A Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here. I am a bit afraid that 90% stay sealed in their box forever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFL Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I just tried (twice!). Once I submit my review the page just sits there saying "Please Wait..." interminably. I'll try again later. BTW, why does the store front and actual product page still Boulder Dash Pre-Order? Isn't it just for sale now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please contact Albert if it still doesn't work for you. We don't want to miss ANY review. Thanks! If that doesn't work, post it here please.

Jinks Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 There seems to be enough of that reselling of these types of hombrews on ebay.

I may sell one of my copies one day, but it won't be anytime soon, that's for bloody well sure. I can't believe this guy didn't at least wait until the store sold out all copies.....

Andromeda Stardust Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 There's enough resellers on feebay as it is. One way you could limit the amount of resellers is to issue a strict limit of 2 copies per customer for limited releases. That way people collectors can have at most one to keep sealed and one to play and enjoy, more people will have an opportunity to buy them, and fewer resellers riding on the gravy train. Another quick question before I get off my high-horse: You claim there's a grand total of only 250 of these made. Well, I received mine a while ago, and I noticed that nowhere on the box, maunal, or cart is there a number on it. Generally, most limited releases usually have a white rectangle on the label or box, with a printed or hand written serial number, for example "#37 /250". If you don't number these limited releases, how can we really be sure that only 250 were made? You could sell 500 of them, and barring financial records, they'd have no way of prooving it. At least one thing's for sure, with so much extra RAM and other hardware stuffed inside, it won't work with a standard Melody board, and would be a royal pain to attempt to produce a repro, even if some hacker decides to dump it and release the ROM.
