I think that if you are unwiling to shell out the extra $8, you are probably going to have to wait until CGE, where you can probably pick them up in person if they have a booth there again. If you want them, just pay the $30 and skip a couple of trips to Burger King to make up the difference.

I hope they do come back again, not just for the controllers. I have a picture of myself with their "booth babe"/marketing smartie (I believe her name was Carrie), who was absolutely drop-dead gorgeous and knew something about playing...

Plus Marty won both pairs of controllers at CGE last year, so I want to get some so I don't feel all left out or anything. LOL

I'll third the motion.

Plus, parhaps the Messiah folks will have progress to report on their wireless 2600, Genesis, and NES Advantage controllers if they appear at CGE.

Marty didn't win all of them. I've got a set of the proto NES controllers from CGE sitting in my cabinet as we speak! Though I wish I had been lucky enough to win both the NES and SNES!!

Add another vote for seeing Carrie again! Yowza!!! @_@

Did the price of these go up? I thought they used to be only $50 for a pair, now they are $60. I was just considering getting some, too.

If you buy two controllers directly from the Messiah web site, the shipping will be free (it is free with purchase over 30$). I bought a NES controller and a SNES controller and it cost me 40$US.

Now it seems the individual controllers cost $30. Last time I checked they were $20.

Other than being off topic, what's wrong with looking at some pictures of a dressed girl?

I know I'm a little late in posting again... but you ARE drop-dead gorgeous, ya know. I had no idea that you were on DP! Good to get to see you again!

And I haven't even checked this thread since I posted, I figured everybody'd ignore me... I guess I was wrong. @_@ ;)

You all should be ASHAMED! ASHAMED I say!

(Psst, Carrie? Can I get another picture with you this year? LOL ) :)

These controllers will soon be avilable in local game stores in the Edmonton, Alberta, Canada area, and hopefully soon in Ontario as well.

If you are in eastern Canada, and want a local store to start carrying them, pester the store. Messiah has a Canadian distributor now, and I am pushing these into stores as hard as I can. Any interested store owners can contact Messiah, or Old School Gamer for details.
