I do have an LTO but a backup cart could come in handy. Thanks At this point, it's looking like a maximum of $85 USD for the initial offering. If things go better than planned, it could be slightly less. Later orders will likely be a bit more (economies of scale). 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just looking for an alternative in case it dies as I play my ROMs/games on real hardware. I may get a backbit as well. I like to support these efforts where I can. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well you can always use the MiSTer using real INTV2 controllers as your backup like me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was Matthew 6:19-21 Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where emulators and MiSTers corrupt and where hackers break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where Intellivision games and real hardware neither corrupt nor fail, and where no hacker can break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. Intellivision is older than I thought. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsson Posted March 30, 2023 Share Posted March 30, 2023 Perhaps the fact that the site has download links makes some scanners suspicious. Now I'm sure that Joe doesn't distribute anything with someone else's active copyrights, but those scanners might not be as sure and rather block your access.

+5-11under Posted April 1, 2023 Author Share Posted April 1, 2023 Quick update: the shells have arrived. Thanks @Rev ! I'm super busy over the next week or so, but after that, I'm planning to assemble and send out a few beta carts. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+5-11under Posted April 20, 2023 Author Share Posted April 20, 2023 Quick update: I've got the CNC programs (hopefully) ready to go, to route the inside of the shells (need to remove some supports), and holes for the LCD/LED/switches, as well as for the MicroSD slot. The plan is to route a few shells and finalize the label over the next few days, then send out a few to beta testers (just to make sure everything is good). After that I'll start to arrange pre-orders of a batch. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+5-11under Posted April 22, 2023 Author Share Posted April 22, 2023 I completed the CNC programs, and I routed a few shells for beta testers. I need to clean the shells. I'll be going to the local print shop on Monday to get a sheet of labels. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+5-11under Posted April 24, 2023 Author Share Posted April 24, 2023 I was able to get some labels printed this afternoon. The pictures, compared to real life, show all the little imperfections (as well as the blatantly obvious issue with the corner of the label). I'll expect the next ones to be at least a little bit nicer looking than this one. One of the issues that I had to deal with, by first applying only part of the label, was the fact that I needed to cut the holes in the label, and then put the screws in (also in the front). Over the next few days, I'll put together the beta units. MicroSD and MicroUSB ports on the sides: The 1.3" OLED display. It looks clearer in real life, without the glow around the letters: Edit: adding picture in Model I: 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DZ-Jay Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 It looks very good. 👍 I think I mentioned my interest in being a beta tester in the past, but just in case, here it is: count on me for testing. I have a few projects I can test with, including some games that use bank-switching and extended memory (if that is implemented in the RTO). dZ. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
