AtariBrian Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 I am quite glad you decided not to have Vanguard. Hope something better will come. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, not some crazy astronomical price but a reasonable one? Yeah. Like I said, love me some Vanguard.

thunder-rabbit Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 If the price is a "member price", I would pay for the rom too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd gladly pay to be able to play the game on an emulator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks CV game is fully done, we should have it shipped soon enough Intv game is still in the works, but we should have it done soon, my guess is end of September We're very sorry for the delay on this, we didn't expect this year to be that much busy But hey, good busy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H.E.R.O. Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 As previously stated, willing to pay up now for roms of both new games as a trusted Collectorviison club member. I don't even remember Challenger in the arcades but hey it's on Colecovision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+cjherr Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 I agree that it would be nice for club members to have access to purchase the roms ahead of the general public. We are the folks who contributed in advance and you know who we are. Of course, I see the other side of the coin as well, but it would be a nice perk.

Loafer Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Pretty sure they mean the two new games challenger and vanguard I've stated before that I am not a big buyer of carts, I've moved on from that and am more into the convenience of roms (though I won't lie, I'm really liking the Sydney hunter cart that came with the phoenix ). In saying that I think I speak for all in that we know you can't compete against yourself and the issue of piracy is real. So all I would say is once your run is done and completely sold out, I hope you consider the vault as a path for future releases and/or sell a rom version. I know if the rom was priced accordingly (ie: no need for cart, printing manual, box, etc), I'd likely support you guys with each release. Anyway that's my take, totally get that piracy is real and puts the kebosh on stuff we recommend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+cjherr Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 I was referring to any new games, in this case Challenger and Vanguard. It would be nice if club members could purchase new game roms before the general public, but as Loafer said above, piracy is real, and I certainly don't want the people who put so much passion and effort into keeping our hobby alive to take a hit because of it. Simply making conversation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loafer Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 (edited) There was a post by maybe Brian, not sure that clarified that this is not the case. Colecovision club members get only colecovision roms and exclusive coleco game. Intellivision club members get only intellivision roms and exclusive intv game. retroillucid had made a mistake, he had misunderstood the club membership benefits. they were selling each club separately and some people have bought into both clubs. This would not be fair to them if everyone gets access to both clubs. There was miscommunication but that is my current understanding of where we stand with "the clubs" Edited August 29, 2019 by Loafer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
