Oscar G. Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 Beautiful box. I appreciate the attention to detail and all the love that you put into the project. Good luck and looking forward to playing it. Cheers. O 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+nurmix Posted October 21, 2015 Author Share Posted October 21, 2015 Thanks, guys. I am still taking orders on these. If you're interested send me a PM and I'll give you the details. And yes, anyone wanting one will need to send me 2 Flashback controllers. I don't have any more spares to use at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+nurmix Posted November 7, 2015 Author Share Posted November 7, 2015 Finally got a little free time this week to get busy on these. Sorry for the washed out picture, but here are the first two I'm working on. In the picture you can see the de-soldered matrix connectors, boards and cables, the upper / cut 'keypad only' matrices, and the Dremeled controller housings. I should be completing these first two this weekend. I'm hand numbering the matrices as I go - more for my own record than anything else. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad we never got a run of extra controllers so that we could buy them from ATGames...maybe Keith should kickstart that then we'd have lots of cheaper fodder for this...

+nurmix Posted November 9, 2015 Author Share Posted November 9, 2015 The first two Dual Action Controllers shipped today! One is going to Belgium, one to Australia (to active Inty forum members, of course). I'm making them in the order received and/or the order I receive the donor controllers. I will be contacting those who have expressed an interest soon, regarding payment and sending the donor controllers. Two people have already sent their controllers to me, those will be next in line (along with another one for a Canadian guy we all know and love). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfy62 Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 I love Rev too!!! Man, I didn't even know he lives in Canada! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oscar G. Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 (edited) Hello there, I only want to let you know that I have received and tested my copy of the Dual Action controller and suffice to say I am extremely happy with the final product. I have decided to start a new topic with some of my first impressions and gameplay ideas (with a couple of high scores thrown into the mix ) to avoid hi-jacking this thread. The topic can be found here. I think that Dual Control may be a good idea for original and fun gameplay in future games. I thank Nurmix and all the people that had the vision to make the Dual Controller dream a fun to play reality. Cheers!

+nurmix Posted November 15, 2015 Author Share Posted November 15, 2015 I never got mine. I only just started making them, Rev. And I need the 2 'donor' controllers from you to make you one. PM me and we'll sort it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That didn't take as long as I thought it would to get to Belgium. Glad you're enjoying it. I'll check out your other thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freewheel Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 I never got mine. Me neither. It's been 18 months and I'm hesitant to cancel my Paypal order because then I'll never get mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+nurmix Posted November 16, 2015 Author Share Posted November 16, 2015 (edited) Me neither. It's been 18 months and I'm hesitant to cancel my Paypal order because then I'll never get mine. Miscommunication on my part. I forgot to mention that you actually have to tell me you WANT one, send me donor controllers and pay in order to receive a Dual Action Controller. Mind reading and an infinite supply of free donor controllers are not things that I possess. Edited November 16, 2015 by nurmix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
