Finishing up with these. You want one? Now's your (close to last) chance.

Thanks for everything so far guys!

I have something really neat to share : )

You can PM here- but I really have my hands full with PMs on all of the forums and it may awhile to keep up with them all. You can email me at Battlesmurfdx ***AT*** Yahoo.com

I posted this at Neo-Geo.com and it made it's way to the Nintendo Age forums shortly after if you want to see some satisfied customers.

Thanks!

That's pretty neat, but are you doing the reproduction?

I would love to get the "blue case" version, but the "Paypal Gift" option kinda irks me. Is there any way to pay via regular Paypal, but adding extra for the fees?

Honestly, I think many here would rather send $56 ($2 extra for fees) for the regular version or $61 (for blue cart and PP fees) for the colored version. And possibly $2 more USPS Insurance.

Is that ok?

He's a long-time member on NG.com I believe. I read his thread on NG.com and NA earlier.

What's the back-order of these so far? Would you be able to make and ship them out in a reasonable time? I assume that you're the one making these and that you have a large back-order of these to fill. That's the only thing stopping me from ordering one.

[maxlords]

If these ARE available, I'd definitely buy one.

That's good to know. :)

I would love one, if it's possible to send $63, which is for the "blue" cart version ($5 extra from the $54), $2 for USPS Insurance, and $2 for fees (sent by "goods" and nof "gift").

If that's ok, let me know Battlesmurf!

[Battlesmurf]

Please check out the 'order' section of the website. These are already done! There's a thread on Neo-Geo and NA where people have already received theirs in the mail. I was never a fan of pre-orders, so what I have is what is for sale. I didn't want to post on too many websites all at the same time- I want to be quick at answering questions and shipping.

And yes, regular paypal is an option (provided you cover all of the fees! Alot of the calculators on the net are wrong. I don't want to refund anybody for shorting me). I don't think I'm going to break even on this whole deal, I don't want paypal taking anything away from me is the only reason for the gift. I have loads of feedback that can back up the safety of the gift option. I list the price without fees only because most people are opting for gift or money order.

Also- please note that the prices are shipped in the continental US. I use small rate priority boxes for outside of the US (Canada is about $12 if memory serves- but that has no DC or insurance). Please be aware that shipping outside the con.US can have its risks (please don't blame me, blame USPS).

Thanks guys!

Thanks for the questions. Feel free to email me as well!

[Battlesmurf]

Kirby- you have email incoming.

If anybody would like to order or talk about ordering, I'd prefer to talk over email or PM to help with the thread :)

Thanks!

[megasdkirby]

Awesome!

Will keep an eye on my email. :)

Guys
I already bought one at Neo Geo and it showed up yesterday and it is AWESOME!!!!!

best looking NES box/manual repro I have seen

[nesguy]

I bought mine through NintendoAge on Monday and it already arrived yesterday. This looks even better in person than the pics give credit to. Fantastic job!

[silkd]

I just got mine today too. Great quality, very fast shipping, packed very well. No problems at all.

[fahlim003]

If I had an NES, this would be an excellent buy.

All the same, nice link and best of success to everyone who buys it.

[JerseyDevil65]

Very nice looking, Battlesmurf.

I already have a repro cart that a friend made for me, or else I would be all over this. Easily my favorite NES shooter.

[Battlesmurf]

alrighty. Last day at these prices. Anything paid today ships tomorrow morning. Thanks guy!

[Battlesmurf]

Price update was minimal. I have opted to no longer use flat rate boxes. I have another shipping run on Monday- anybody else that pays before then will ship on Monday, August 2nd (or sooner!). Thanks for the interest guys!

[megasdkirby]

Just to give a heads up to the seller and the Recca game!

Got mine a few days ago and it was incredibly professional. No squished box or anything!

Popped the game on my top loader and played perfectly. Only played it once, though. LOL

I highly recommend a copy. Looks professional...heck, it feels professional too! Superb job, Battlesmurf!

[YoshiM]

I saw the videos and that game just looks sweet. Very tempting but no cash at the moment. You going to keep making these or is this a limited time?

[Battlesmurf]

Wow, that was quick! I am glad you like the game Mr Kirby! Give it some time- then try out hard mode. Oddly enough- I post a bunch on Shmups but they don't like repros there so I never sold any there- but there's a Strategy section that has the code for hard mode/Zanki (suicide bullets) and such. Game is a monster haha : )

And Mr Yoshi-there will never be more than 250 sets total. Right now based on the speed and time etc etc- I am guessing that I won't make more than 200. There will be less than 15 each color. (right now I sold about 5ish of each color, waiting on labels to finish the other ones).

Thanks, and enjoy!

EDIT- not to double bump. If you were lucky enough to get a soundtrack- I would enjoy it if you posted a pic of yourself with it. Alternatively- you can be discreet and send me a pic and I can do it if privacy is a concern. I haven't gotten acknowledgment from the 2 I have shipped so far (but they have been delivered as far as I know). Not sure who came from where with those- but I think it'd be nice to put up :)

Yikes! Alrighty-it's a new month so my "game" budget is back. I'll email soon.

[maxlords]

Pretty damned excited about this :D I actually didn't even see this over on shmups or I'd have ordered one then!

Can't wait for mine to show!

Thanks in advance for what looks to be a FANTASTIC job :)

[Battlesmurf]

Website updated. Just greys available at the moment, going to be a wait time on colored labels (so as per my current direction- I am not pre-selling any more colored carts. Only will sell when they are in hand, ready to be played :)

thanks for all of the kind words- enjoy the games guys!

[maxlords]

Got mine today....and these are...AMAZING! Game is tough as NAILS too! I gotta say...this is easily the best repro job I've ever seen...worth every dime for SURE!

[Battlesmurf]

Thanks for the super kind words guys. Any orders that pay within the next day or so ship on Monday/Tuesday.

Also- http://shmups.system11.org/viewtopic.php?t=5286

That thread on shmups has some good info on the mechanics of the game. Also mentions the hard mode/suicide mode as well if you can't clear the game yourself (or don't want to).

Thanks guys/gal!

[Battlesmurf]

shipping a few more on Monday. Anybody that can pay before then will have their orders ship as well. Thanks fellas!

[Battlesmurf]

Still available. I'm hoping to be out of these before the year is up. I haven't been actively promoting these as much as I should have- though : P I'll give discounts for purchases on 2 or more carts, and discounts for referrals. Thanks fellas!

[Battlesmurf]

I have a shipping run tomorrow. If you get payment in tonight- I'll be able to ship tomorrow :D Help me finish up these things. Thanks!

[Battlesmurf]

Weekend update. Get one before Monday- and it's $3 off! That makes $52 shipped in the US for a grey cart, $57 for a clear or red cart! Act fast!

Thanks!

[Battlesmurf]

$51 shipped on the Greys as a holiday promotion! Get them while you can!

[Parodius Duh!]

Cool, can I get a Cart only? No need for the box, etc... if so, how much?

[Battlesmurf]

Sorry, not selling the carts alone. If anything- I'll be selling boxes/manuals alone when I run out of carts.

Bump- there is less than around 50 carts.

Thanks for the interest fellas!

[Battlesmurf]

Final bump. Not too many left, help me finish up here : D

[MachineGex]

Do you sell just the box and instructions?

[YoshiM]

How many you got left?

[Sabz5150]

Any chance you'd sell the cart label by itself? I have a Recca, but its a label-less cart.

Thanks :D

One of the very last red carts is up for auction. 50% is getting donated to Veterans. Thanks for the help and support guys!

[bb_hood]

A bought a complete one, and its of very nice quality. The game is mega awesome as well. Highly reccomended

[Battlesmurf]

Back from super extended vacation from these. Going to finish them up so I can move on to whatever is next. (If there is a next :P)

$24 shipped for a box, manual, stryo in the US.

Full sets are available, too. I still have a few greys, and (if I can find where I put the labels) a few clears are possible (if I have to purchase more labels- then no more clears will be made). Just a few blues left, reds have been out for a long time and no more of those will be available.

Battlesmurfdx***At***Yahoo.com for quicker turn around (especially if you do not hear from me for about 2 days or so).

Thanks!

There's some customers here- this will have to do in place of the website for now. It wasn't worth the money to renew it to sell the last few carts.

Thanks again for everything guys!

[Battlesmurf]

Everything shipped, all pms responded to. If you guys need faster response- please feel free to email me :)

[weirdguy]

I'm late to this thread, but you got any left ?

[Battlesmurf]

Email at Battlesmurfdx **AT** yahoo.com for faster responses. PM incoming sir :)

[Battlesmurf]

Shipping run most likely will hit a day early (monday). If anybody wants to get in on it- I have a few 'belly flop' carts/kits. $45 shipped in the US (Small flat rate priority). The labels are not the best on a few of these (not alligned properly, not perfect cuts, etc)- so that coupled with the fact that I want to get a few more sales before Monday makes the price what it is on those. Scoop em up fellas : )

(boxes and manuals are the same across the board. all carts carry warranty- these are through NesReproductions.com)

[Battlesmurf]

I renewed the website for another term- though there's not a whole lot of carts left. Thanks for all of the interest!

[Battlesmurf]

carts shipped. Pms answered. Thanks guys :) (next shipping run Tuesday).

[Battlesmurf]

Misaligned label carts, (full package)- currently $43 shipped in the US. Can't beat that price- and the current carts are the same that you'd find at the reproduction website. Grab them while you can :) Shipping run on Tuesday.
