godslabrat Posted October 29, 2020 Share Posted October 29, 2020 I'm still not entirely sure how many of their backers, if any, they plan to ship these units to. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it is, but review what they have said ... they are not in a position to ship next week ... nor will they be by mid November ... perhaps last week of November when you add up all the things they have said ... New Years may happen for USA backers, but not international Backers if they are shipping via Standard Mail ... I’d love to know what happened to that US$45 I gave them for shipping ... what a rip off. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this juncture these clowns couldn’t affix postage to an envelope correctly. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikebloke Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 2 weeks to get into US. Assuming no customs issues several days to a week to get to their warehouse. A day minimum for product testing / confirmation. Rest of the week to package orders to ship out. Week to arrive if it wasn't covid Christmas, so perhaps two. 2nd or 3rd week of December for first units in backers hands. If I wasn't a religious denomination that completely rejects gambling I would bet all my savings (in atari coin) on that being the earliest date anyone gets one. So you might get it for Christmas but it's still a bit of a stretch. That GunTech game looks mildly interesting, and it's obviously already out on apple store and steam, I'll likely buy it on sale (on a pc) . 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'd be hilarious to juxtapose the report of factory workers using calipers to line up USB ports, with the inevitable articles complaining about how the OS keeps crashing and the board overheats when it tries to run Tic-Tac-Toe.

TACODON Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I can't wait to see how the backers spin the wait into a plus. Like come on guys. Atari is just dragging them all along for a ride and they can't wait for more. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fultonbot Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 I'm not sure exactly how to read this, but looks like the $.25 Atari Token dropped to $.16 after one day? https://ataritokens.com/myportal/home That doesn't seem like good thing. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Stephen Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 How sad. In the three years this fiasco has gone on, I've been a beta tester and built 3 custom Atari 8-bit PCB recreations. The 1088XEL in 2017, the 1088XLD in 2019, and just tonight completed the build of the 576NUC+. These were all designed by one guy (AA user @mytek). The assclowns at FakeTari took $3 million and still have nothing to show for it. Stunning. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
