Some news coming later today...

[wiggyx]

Micro faceplates are in and info about Nomad mods are up on the blog!

[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.

Something's starting to come together here...

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

If you ever want to work on backlighting a Game Gear, get in touch with me. I'll pay handsomely.

This is making me want a GBA now.

Or a better screen for that matter.

They're a softer, pliable resin. They actually resist scratching a lot better than the original faceplates too.

One is sitting right next to me that's getting a big, fat LED powered diffused backlight right now. I'll have pics of it up-and-running as soon as I can.

This is making me want a GBA now.

They are fun good times

Or a better screen for that matter.

Yeah, that would be killer. Maybe at some point...

Yet, another hopeful future project along with the Neptune! I guess I just need to get another Nomad and send it in to you for a new screen.

Check the blog for updates, folks

I'd just like to say that your photography skills are making me want to own every single thing you are making.

[Gunstar Hero]

Wiggy, you are doing absolutely outstanding work! I just gained so much resepct for you (not that i didnt already lol) for putting so much work and craftsmanship into these products! I will certainly be checking out the repros you are making, they sound way cool. Best of luck with the custom cartridge mold idea you mentioned in your blog, it sounds awesome!

Thank you! The custom cart shells will be a blast because I can have unique designs for each game if need be with logos and graphics "molded" into the shape itself

Sounds awesome I can just imagine a gold Legend Of Zelda cart with a triforce molded next to the label

I just went through this thread for the first time and was blown away with the quality of your products. It was very fun looking through everything and it's cool how your casing looks miles better than what was produced by multi-billion dollar corporations (I guess that's just what happens when engineers need to cut production costs). Anyways, I sent you a PM about GBC related stuff.

You just got shutdown on cheap ass gamer for piracy.

Again the rules on here.

Out of respect to retrogaming stores, game developers, and growing legal concerns, discussion about the obtaining of illegal ROMs is prohibited. Illegal ROMs are defined as any ROM, regardless of age, that has been copyrighted in the past 100 years. Threads discussing the location or acquiring of ROMs and/or illegal (pirated) software will be locked per the discretion of a forum moderator or administrator. To avoid legal issues, "gray area" threads dealing with emulation may also be locked. As companies continue to release retro games through virtual releases or retro gaming packs for modern gaming systems, the threat of getting a cease-and-desist order grows. In order to preserve the gaming community we've all worked so hard to build, we ask that you respect Digital Press and refrain from the discussion of illegal ROMs.

Exactly! No reason that we can't have customshells for a large number of games out there and swapping them doesn't even mean destroying an original copy. Heck, it'll let you preserve the original shell/label all that much longer
