From a retrogaming perspective, I think the bulk of the comments here will serve as amazing market research for the folks behind the Retro VGS, so hopefully they are reading each of these comments. From a crowdfunding perspective, which is where I come from mostly, there are actually quite a few reasons the VGS didn't do very well (too high a goal, no real marketing spend that I could see, and little community support for it.) This is the kind of console that will need to be crowdfunded in stages, involving the retrogaming community every step of the way, in order to get it to ultimately reach anywhere near the target that was initially set.
