By bumping, I guess you want another update huh?
Right now you folks might be able to get more information about the retroGEN than me. A working prototype of the system and console was shipped directly to my colleagues in New York for Toy Fair. For those of you attending Midwest Gaming Classic, I do plan on attending and I hope to bring those along with me.
For anybody who cares, I'm stuck here in the office calling retro shops like Joe of Digital Press while my two co-workers are carousing around New York. Some day I'll get over my fear of cold weather.
As for the FC Mobile, 99% of the details have been finalized. Some of the things I pushed for did not make the final cut, such as a reset button on the wireless controllers. That means you big fat lazy retro nuts will have to come off the couch to reset, woe unto thee.
Nobody has asked about how the gun will work with modern televisions. I guess it's somewhat of a good thing that all of you have resigned to using old CRT television sets to play shooters. We do have the technology to use sensors like the Nintendo Wii but everything we've tried has been too much of a hassle. Calibration would be required with every reset and moving in any direction would also require recalibration. That technology just isn't user friendly enough yet.
