Atlantis Posted December 21, 2015 Share Posted December 21, 2015 Twice! Well that's not quite first time was just short 3 backs, second time was nearly all fronts. Mike managed to sort it all in the end though, thankfully. As the emperor once said: "Dress me slowly, I'm in a hurry." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trooper Galactus Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Sounds like it should look cool, though not sure I would bother with one. Don't exactly have spare Jaguars lying around to tinker with. Would love to see a pic! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guitari Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 (edited) I agree; with my earlier post too. Seeing a drawing at least of the red shell would prompt me to order one. Is this what we're looking at? Try to imagine a see thru version! Edited December 23, 2015 by Guitari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlaysWithWolves Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 That was part of their "Legend" series, which was a nod to Mario and Mario-themed controllers. There's a small 3D rendering of a ruby-red translucent case on their IndieGoGo page, but I've no idea it's actually representative of the final product: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+madman Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Why red? Because the original Jag shell with its Atari branding isn't good enough. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clint Thompson Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 Has anyone actually ordered a red shell? Good question. I've been off the boards for quite some time and am now just seeing this. What's the status, is this still a go, is it a done deal? Can these still be ordered? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guitari Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 (edited) I was asking not as I thought it was not available to order but because no one had indicated they had ordered one. For me this confirms that others may find this problematic like me. Firstly like me of you already have regular, white and clear then where can red be put? Jags are quite wide and I live in a shoebox, furthermore jags are getting expensive just to rip the board from. With my clear one I went to the extent of getting Brian at one of the atari warehouses, I forget the name, to rip a brand new board for me and ship it to the UK. This was after extensive customer service problems with troy at best electronics, the other atari warehouse in california. However I still like the idea and may get a.red shell. But where will it stop? Am I going to fill my house with multiple coloured jags? Edited February 7, 2016 by Guitari Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walter_J64bit Posted February 8, 2016 Share Posted February 8, 2016 Good question. I've been off the boards for quite some time and am now just seeing this. What's the status, is this still a go, is it a done deal? Can these still be ordered? You have to email Parrothead to get your answers, I don't why Parrothead does this but any way.

sh3-rg Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Bulk order enquiry. We're looking to use the translucent Jaguar cases to produce awesome "RETRO" sub-casings for PC users. First up, after a recent bargain auction haul, we'll be offering Jagu-housed PCI video capture cards. After this the sky really is the limit. Imagine a PC with a huge array of rainbow-coloured Jaguars each offering masses more potential than your original, limited, boring PC monolith. Look out for the kickstarter campaign soon. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Stephen Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 He's busy passing off a SNES mini as a prototype for his new Coleco console. No - the mini-SNES proved too complicated to get running in time. The new, much more powerful FPGA core now consists of a video capture card. Screw the old SNES 320*200 graphics. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaGamer Posted March 3, 2016 Share Posted March 3, 2016 I think the guy means well. Just over ambitious and starts projects but doesn't finish them...Too bad. Just another reason for people to mock the Jag (the clear Jag case and all). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just another reason for people to mock the Jag (the clear Jag case and all). Yeah. he meant well by stuffing a SNES mini inside a Jaguar case saying it was a prototype FPGA-based system running their SNES core, and he meant well when he stuffed an old CCTV capture card inside a Jaguar case and intimated that it was really, really the actual real one this time, it even had an LED that lit up! Mother Theresa meant well. Mike Kennedy meant to deceive every last one of us on multiple occasions in order to receive hundreds of thousands if not millions of dollars to fund not only the production of, but clearly the creation of, his fantasy world console. I for one will not be buying no fancy clear plastics as long as he's the owner of the moulds, I'd rather use bare boards or fashion my own out of yoghurt pots lolol. In fact, given what has transpired, I think he's invalidated his license to profiteer via AtariAge. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
