Rose Colored Happenings

[wiggyx]

4-19-2013 Notice: Please excuse and delay in email/blog/FB/forum replies, shipping, or the completion of orders. To make a long story short, my wife went into labor at 32 weeks on the 16th. What preceded that were other related issues which required a LOT of my time and attention in the 2 weeks leading up to the delivery. We had a healthy baby boy and I'm just now getting back to my desk to answer emails and get orders moving again. I'm so terribly sorry if this has caused any inconvenience or problems. Rest assured, I will take care of any issues, questions, or concerns as soon as humanly possible. Thank you for your patience.

I am putting a hold on any incoming orders for custom items until I can get caught up. I will resume taking pre-orders/orders for custom items once I've managed to catch up a bit. Keep an eye on the blog and Facebook pages for updates regarding my return to accepting new orders. I will continue to take orders for production items such as the micro faceplates, backlight kits, & Glass GBA lenses in the meantime.

If you already have an order placed or have sent an item or items in to be modded, then rest assured that you’ll be taken care of. I will not be canceling any orders as of this moment.

Thank you,
wiggy

I thought I'd start a little progress log for by new business (some of you may have noticed the link in my sig). I'll be offering up a variety of products and services in the coming months. I'll use this thread to gauge interest for new products, post how-to and FAQ guides, show off what I've done for customers, and of course promote myself :P

Lookin' good. I'd definitely be interested in a pre-modded GBA. I have an Afterburner modded system, and I'm not really satisfied with it. I'm also digging the NGPC. Any chance of giving a Game Gear that treatment?

I continue to keep an eye out for a beat up SNES mini in the wild so I'll have an excuse to order your custom case.

I'm working on one right now for a fellow over on The Cover Project. I was trying to use a DS backlight, but the GG screen is noticably larger, which means that the edges of the screen don't get very well lit. But I'm testing things and I'm pretty sure that I'll have a good solution for it pretty soon.

The one that I used for the proto was BEAT! I got lucky and grabbed it on eBay for 15 shipped. They do indeed pop up at those sorts of prices once in a while

I'd be interested in buying one of those GBAs. It looks very professionally done. Do you have any available, and if so, how much are they?

[Frankie_Says_Relax]

Everything looks fantastic!

Love the attention to detail.

I peeked at that other thread of yours back when it was first posted and it seemed intriguing but quickly slipped my mind. I've also frequently noticed your contributions to discussions here at this fine little website. Seeing this thread, I have to say that I'm extremely grateful to have someone like you contributing to the retro gaming community. I don't know that I will ever have a grown up job or the income to support your contributions, but I'm glad you're doing things like this whether I'll ever get to partake or not. That prototype is amazing, and I'm looking forward to seeing what you do for other system housings and products that we never knew we needed.

How much for the clear red?

[wiggyx]

Sending a pm...

[wiggyx]

These red guys sell faster than I can make em. Making a few more tonight to see if I can't keep up. One of 'em is a little extra special. I'll have pics soon

[xelement5x]

Just wondering.. are you molding these at home on demand, or do you have someone who runs small batches for you?

[wiggyx]

I'm not making the shells from scratch or anything like that. I'm using "Glacier" shells for the job and just painting them

[BricatSegaFan]

Can't wait to see the results in person for the nomad mods

[wiggyx]

Faceplates going out today!

[wiggyx]

Big, BIG updates and news coming up, folks!

Anyone with a deposit down for a Gameboy Advance light+ need not wait much longer. The resupply has arrived!




Considering the recent HUGE influx in business and a couple of other things on the horizon, a 3D printer can wait no more. I will be ordering a printer this week!



Keep an eye on the blog and FB for updates, as always.

[wiggyx]

Something's starting to come together here...

[Frankie_Says_Relax]

So, are the Micro faceplates soft/pliable, or are they rock hard solid plastic?

[BricatSegaFan]

Some love for the ol' Nomad coming down the pipeline

It can't be shut off. Light needs to be on for you to view the backlit screen at all.

Wow!!! Sign me up!!!

I think I can get a good sized battery in there, so there's hope for the Nomand to become an ACTUAL portable !

I've been using these. They are 2700 mah AA rechargeable batteries. I can get some very long gameplay with these.
