Would love to see a 3rd cart with Mr Do on it. It was on the Egret II expansion pack (whatever they called that). I agree the Super Pocket screen is WAY too tiny.

Good to hear. I just want to get mine. Don't want it to be vaporware.

I enjoyed Bubsy when I got it when it first came out. Frustrating but I enjoyed all the different death animations. Playing on this collection last night I enjoyed playing the first game again. I'll get around to poking around in it someday and check out all the stuff. Scratched that itch real fast. Can't wait for my $149 collectors edition to show up so I can box it away and forget I ever bought it. It is LRG so I'm sure they'll go cheap on something or subtitute who knows what, but since I'll never open the box, who knew? New fans for this franchise are a pipe dream.

So if they had been quiet about it, this would have never happened. If they hadn't been greedy...

@breach187 Yes I need more ways to play Pac-Man. Especially if they are ever so slightly different... that's the best.

@The_Nintendo_Pedant Its plenty ugly. Probably going to cramp my hands playing it... or like these other things, I order it get it way later than promised, play it about 20 minutes (you know scratch that itch). Carefully put it back in the box and never think about it ever again. Sound about right. I've got so many of these things packed up or never opened. Good stuff.

@nparkhouse thank you. Now I'll wait and see if they ship stuff to Costco early, and then delay shipping out pre-orders. That's been my experience in the past. I never learn. Pre-ordered and can't wait... but well...

I come here for retro games, not political commentary. If I want that I'll go to Kotaku, IGN, PC Gamer, and on and on... if this is what this site is going to devolve into... well that would be lame.

I backed the project and am looking forward to the finished project. I'd not heard of the project until reading it here, and backed at the lowest teir since it's what I had as a kid. Wish I still knew where the tapes were with the programs I typed in for hours as a kid. Still have the tape drive. I'll say it again, if it doesn't come to fruition (always a chance) it's no different than going to a few bad movies, out to eat a disappointing meal and buying some modern games that I tire of quickly combined (cost wise). Easy to budget for. Until then it's the emulation route.

@AzzurraIrisLeaMonde Can you name the person so I can look up what you're talking about. Unless every quote is from that same person, your broad brush paints everyone. Thank you.

As long as it plays A500 games with no issues I'll buy it at the $350 price point or thereabouts. I know it'll be a very tough sell but if its got an Amiga Keyboard then its an easy buy for me.

Had a couple ages ago but sold them. Link above to express interest didn't work for me. Good sign. Bad sign? Dunno.

I feel like I'm responding to a Kotaku article here. I get the feeling some here feel as though the Commodore thing is a sham/scam and we'll see. For transparency I've backed the project. That was my first computer a c-64, and then an Amiga500. Since I'm not a modern audience type this thing resonates with me, as I'm playing c-64 games on an emulator nightly now (yes I own the disks as well). I got off the wheel last year, and haven't missed all the releases everyone gets hyped up about and then later admit weren't all that great. If it is a scam and I've blown that money, oh well. I've lost thousands and thousands in kickstarters that never delivered. I've been ripped off time and time again on eBay (condition isn't near what was said) and been at that since 1999. I really don't think he's referring at all to AI as being toxic tech. Us oldsters get what he means.

@PopetheRev28 exactly.

I saw the commercials, I had one and I had it serviced. Its Ah-me-gah. I'm going to start calling it Ar-mee-ger now though after reading the article.

Bought the beige version because that's what I had. The other ones look cool. I've given up on ALL modern games now and just play retro so I can justify the splurge. This was my first computer as a kid and I want to support them. I piss hundreds away on fast food, movies, sporting events, concerts, and all that, so really I'll get a lot of enjoyment out of this, even on days I don't play it, I'll be looking at it. So excited.

Where... WHERE IS MR DO!?

When I used to collect retro stuff in the early 90s, I opened up some Coleco carts and was horrified to see EEPROMs. I sold all my stuff. Started collecting again, and sold everything off again. Other than looking at something on a shelf, for its design, collecting to still use is futile. Its all about emulation. I have the games either sealed or complete in box that I enjoy, but I will be using emulation in the future to play them. Digital only is a bad idea, and thank goodness people have dumped the ROMs so that all this isn't lost. I was in an arcade and they had a Tempest with a joystick and a flat screen. Atrocious. The sadest thing is vector games will be gone forever because nobody makes those X-Y monitors anymore. Yes you can emulate but without the REAL spinner, and the monitor, it ain't the same. Enjoy all of it while you can, because your grandkids, grandkids, won't be able to experience any of this first hand.
