Last week I received a full set of label proofs, and everything looked perfect except for four of the Atari 2600 end labels

This is why 5200 cartridges are superior.

LOL.

This all very, very, very cool! Well done, @Albert!!

Here are some photos of the label proofs I received recently:

 

 

 

 

 

 

These haven't gone into production yet as we're fixing some minor issues with four 2600 end labels (the ones with the black marks next to them in the second image).  The printer sent me new proofs of these end labels last week, and they should have been here on Saturday.  But everything with FedEx Ground is behind schedule right now, so they didn't show up until Monday.  I was gone most of the day, and when I did arrive home, someone had stolen the package.  So that's great.  The printer is sending out another batch this week.  Always something!

Man, it's tough waiting for these, but it'll be worth the wait!  I know that when I receive my order it will be perfect!

[Albert]

They are coming..  I am likely going to take down the store until the end of April to spend every waking moment working on building these games so I can get them shipped.

Again, a big thank for all the work you are doing for the community, Al.....

hurray to you

[Albert]

The labels have finally arrived and look fantastic!  I am now going to be spending pretty much every waking moment finishing the games, testing and labeling them...  Here are two examples!

 

 

 

As soon as I get all these games built, it will be a non-stop, crazy shipping extravaganza!  Then I am taking a damn vacation!

They look good but it looks like they screwed up on the 5200 end labels.

Thanks for the update Albert... I think most of us totally understand and I for one truly appreciate the hard work I know you put into all of this! Pausing the store may be a good idea to slow the influx and stop the drowning (and keep me from being tempted to go look for yet MORE things to add to my order while I'm waiting for it to ship!). ?   Thanks again!

Just finished building all the pre-order copies of Adventure II XE!

 

 

There are gray copies as well, but I didn't include any in this photo.

These cartridges are looking really good! Thank you Albert for all those updates

Can't wait to get Zoo Keeper! Thanks for updating us on the progress!

It's like I want to be mad because of how long this process has taken....... but I can't because I know you're working your f@#$%!n ass off and your level work doesn't really have an equal. You really are the best at what you do.

 

Someone made me a cart here once. It looked like shit. It plays and gets the job done and Im grateful and all still to have it... but I do wish it was you who made it.
