Serial Number


Preppie

Recommended Posts

#00004244 - pre-ordered in January from Amazon.ca - arrived a couple of hours ago.

I've tried some quick plays on a couple of old favorites.  I haven't noticed any issues with the accidentally hitting the extra buttons, but it's early yet.

 

Update:  My label also says Hong Hong rather than Hong Kong!

Serial numbers suggest 20,000 units made.

 

Current sales reported on Amazon:

.com = 900+
.co.uk = 200+
.ca = 100+
.de = 100+
.fr = 50+
total = 1350 (probably close to 1500 when considering the '+')

 

Of course there's other shops and other countries selling THE400 but probably in small numbers.

Mine is 2070.  I "preordered" mine from Amazon US the day before the release date. My biggest issue is hitting the left ring button on the shoulder fire button. The most fun was when I managed to hit the change to left hand controller mode without knowing. Up / down turned into left / right.  I finally remembered reading about it in the quick start guide. 

My first step with every game is stick remap.

through Amazon US: 3395

Ordered it April 7

not sure how I ended up with a relatively low number having waited so long.

 

 

Maybe the low serial number consoles are at the bottom of the stockpile 😉

THE400 Mini is a UK product and made in Hong Kong that was part of the UK up until 1997... weird ... :) but only recently China took control of Hong Kong, like a company taking over another company there is a 3 year cooling of period where the company been taken over can change there mind so it can not be changed for 3 years.

China got full control of Hong Kong about 20 years later, (2018 I think, it was just before the pandemic), thats why people in Hong Kong protested about it, they didn't want there lives to change.
