Yes, but how many of them are aware of the Retron 5? How many of those would be aware of the Retron 5 if they didn't have a friendship with you?
I may be underestimating the casual demand here, but one thing that we haven't mentioned much is the wide price disparity between this and competing products. Why should the average Joe that dug some cartridges out of his attic pick the most expensive clone system to play them on even if a $100 price tag isn't necessarily a major deterrent to such customers?
I'd be foolish to disagree completely with you. Running a well liked online business that deals in this product, you're obviously in a better position to understand this market. But I'm still inclined to think that the casual business is going to be the minority for this new clone unless Hyperkin and retailers do a heck of a selling job to get potential customers to understand why an option twice as much as competing products (that on the surface seem much the same) is worth it in the end.
