The Nintendoage list is kind of out dated. Some of the earlier names on the list were for box/manual combos.
The second batch of 25 are all shipped out. So, the first 50 are out and about in the world making their trips to their new homes!
Look at the article on Wired.com about this!
If anyone has any minor issues with this release, please PM me so we can resolve it before you make it public. It detracts from what we are trying to do. I’m easy to deal with, and if it’s my fault I will admit it. This is a lot of orders to process, so, some things may have been overlooked. I try to take the utmost care on my end. Last thing I want is unhappy people when we’re trying to do something incredible. I’m a collector and hate getting stuff in the mail ruined. That is why I use the thick envelopes I use. They aren’t super cheap and they aren’t the cheap free ones they give out at the PO.
USPS bending an envelope I put big bold letters saying “do not bend” everywhere is kind of beyond my control unless I pad the envelope with steel. haha.
All in all, thanks from the love from all angles. Future releases are just going to get better and better as we perfect this even more!

Well, I got mine in, while the box does look nice, something went wrong with putting it in the envelope unfortunately. One corner is ripped, right out of the envelope and the envelope looks fine.How can we solve this problem?
Oh no! I’ll have to send out a replacement. Not a problem. PM your address!

With the awesome review and the classy work, I would like to have the option to donate additional $$ to the cause to help those that are working so hard to bring these titles to the community at great expense in their own time and money.
Totally unnecessary! But if you must, you can send us chocolates! or chocolate covered money if you absolutely must! Only way we will accept it!
There may be some projects where we need more work done then currently is being done, like artists, or the cost of recreating inserts. etc. Eventually the stockpile of actual inserts, like we are using now, will run out.
Other than that, keep buying the releases when they come out. Buy more than 1. Buy one for your mom!
Let’s see some pictures of it up in collections, hanging out with his/her friends!

Good enough for me – will be ordering the manual/box/sticker set. I think I will keep Richard’s original sticker on my cart though, and consider it a rare, oop varient, lol!Someone also brought up the Ebay issue, but now that this is a commercial public venture ( and not Richard doing it as a favor for members of this site), i don’t know why anyone would care ( if they do).
After all, Uncle Tusk is obviously making money on this too. Just my opinion…
This is not a profitable venture by any means. Just giving these games a life that they deserved. That’s all. Plenty of money is lost in doing this as well as made across several projects.
That being said. All of these are shipping out tomorrow!
Here’s a sexy picture for all to enjoy.

Check these bad boys out!!! Getting ready to ship these in the next couple days. Thanks for patiently waiting everyone. The first 25 should be out by the end of this week.
There’s still a few left to be claimed if anyone is interested.
You can buy everything through http://www.uncletusk.com
For the next project we plan to be ahead of the game and have them completed beforehand so there’s no waiting.
Also attached is a little tease of what’s to come.

Just had a go, great demo. This has got real potential.As Ben said adjustable enemie speed would be nice. But other than that I think this is a winner. Well done you two.
Thanks, it is nice to see people like the demo after I have put countless hours into making it look as fluent as possible.
I will figure out the speed for all elements as soon as I build real levels.
This looks awesome. Great work! Feel free to use the walrus as a character!

Just donate it to James Rolfe.
I’m sure he gets enough free stuff. haha.
Only 1 left in the first batch. Next person to pay gets it! All others have to wait for batch 2. Which means like 2-3 weeks.
