N64 Group Buy - deposits in

Duo_R · 04/28/2013, 03:10 PM

Since its more a dye process it doesnt flake off. I scraped an area inside a cart it doesnt come off by scratching.

Deletion I used a Vinyl dye by duplicolor a process I have used for restoring interior auto parts. Very durable.

whisper2053 · 04/29/2013, 12:33 PM

Ok, it looks like my guy downstairs had his ebay order for one of these fall through. The seller was making some shady/shifty excuses for stuff, and John wound up just getting a refund. That being said, if there is room still, we definitely want to grab one of these for him!

Edit: Correction on that. I had him look at this thread and he very much wants to grab one of the super-deluxe-blasto-matic versions, and is ready to shoot the funds to my paypal. If there's still room in this rodeo, I just want to double check/verify the shipping since we're at an Army APO in Germany.

Duo_R · 04/29/2013, 12:43 PM

As of now we are at 12 and closed since I am not sure more than 12 units will be available. Will let you know if that changes. I will check with Krikkz to find out.

Duo_R · 04/30/2013, 03:32 PM

Send me a PM I might be able to add one more. As long as you insure and ok with shipping overseas. Make sure there wouldnt be an issue in customs etc.

Also heard from Krikkz today says should restock next week. Cross your fingers!

whisper2053 · 04/30/2013, 04:26 PM

PM sent, sir.

Duo_R · 05/02/2013, 11:15 AM

hey guys we got 13 total orders in, if anyone wants to add in still possible just asking for 100% down since the order is getting larger than I originally anticipated, and more fair to those that pre-ordered earlier. Should restock next week. Also - FYI I am going to move forward with NES N8 Everdrive, see my other thread.

We are getting close this this finally happening, a request can everyone send me this info to make sure I got everyone's paypal / user name matched up (and confirm your order). I have almost everyone's info matched but a few paypal payments didn't have the PCFX username.

Real Name:
Home Address:
PCFX User Name:
Paypal Email:
Package chosen:
Cart color:
- Stock (free)
- Custom color (add $4 for flat black, charcoal, blue)

whisper2053 · 05/02/2013, 12:11 PM

I'm hashing out the details with my guy now, should have a pm with the info to you within the hour though.

Duo_R · 05/02/2013, 04:35 PM

Payment received! Welcome to the club!

whisper2053 · 05/02/2013, 04:40 PM

Thank you, sir! Though as stated in the pm's, my Soldier is going to be the one benefiting from this, and I am glad that he is happy

Now I just wish that I had the spare cash atm to throw down on one of those nes/fami ed's that you guys are setting up. Still waiting on my taxes to come in lol.

Thanks guys I will ping Krikkz tomorrow to get an ETA on when those will arrive. I got a shipment of game cases and should complete the inserts this week.

Duo_R · 05/17/2013, 02:54 AM

For confirmation that units are on their way to my house!

whisper2053 · 05/17/2013, 06:00 AM

Sounds great! I will pass on the word

Duo_R · 05/17/2013, 10:29 AM

Tracked it yesterday still hasnt left the Ukraine so still got some time

GohanX · 05/17/2013, 11:23 AM

FYI it took about a month for me to get my Super Everdrive from the Ukraine a while back. I wish I had been paying attention, I would have jumped in on this

Duo_R · 05/17/2013, 11:24 AM

Lol ok thanks man, how do you like the Super ED?

GohanX · 05/17/2013, 11:46 AM

It's freaking awesome, easily my favorite of the various flash carts I own. It's a little slow at loading a new game, but once it has a game in memory it stays there even after you power it off, so that's a good trade IMO. Also, the UI is basic but straightforward without any random issues I've had with other flash carts.

Duo_R · 05/17/2013, 11:48 AM

I have been tryin to determine if I should get an SD2Snes or the Super ED. Did you add DSP1 chip to yours?

GohanX · 05/17/2013, 02:54 PM

No, I'm not even sure if my older model supports that. The only games I would use DSP for is Pilotwings and Mario Kart anyway, and I own Mario Kart.

And why dont you own pilotwings?!!

GohanX · 05/18/2013, 11:05 PM

I've never really found it out in the wild at a decent price. I do plan on grabbing it someday!

I think all the new ones Krikzz makes have DSP-1 installed. If cash is no obstacle I would get the SD2SNES, when they're available. But the Super ED is sufficient for most gamers. I agree that the load times are annoying.

Duo_R,

The cases look great. Thank you for all the time and effort you're putting in this. I'm sure everyone appreciates it as much as I do.

TheClash603 · 05/20/2013, 10:29 PM

looks great!

BlueBMW · 05/21/2013, 12:51 AM

Makes me wish I jumped in on the nes groupbuy too.... oh well maybe you can make me a shell + case for one later.

Mishran · 05/23/2013, 03:15 PM

From what I gather from Krikkz's page, aside from region, there isn't a difference in the CIC chip in one game to the next? I may be interested in a N64 ED later on and can do the soldering and such myself. If I picked up a $1.00 sport title, I can use the CIC in an ED? It'll be good to know for next time I spot one in the wild and pick it up for future use.

Duo_R · 05/23/2013, 04:39 PM

No there are different CICs I think it was posted earlier - there are entire lists on the Internet.

Duo_R · 05/26/2013, 06:38 PM

Ok I think the units are almost in the country tracking it daily. Should be here soon!

Duo_R · 05/29/2013, 10:28 PM

Units are in NJ....just needs to head to west coast now...

Sweet I'll go to the PO and kick some butt to get them moving. But more seriously, Thanks for the update

SMF · 05/30/2013, 09:31 PM

Yes I agree thanks for the updating. Cant wait to play Superman 64............... Yea I said it want to see just how bad a game it is lol.

bartre · 05/31/2013, 12:46 AM

superman 64 isn't actually that bad.
try power rangers lightspeed rescue.

BlueBMW · 05/31/2013, 10:01 AM

Go go power rangers!!!

Duo_R · 06/01/2013, 01:47 AM

Units arrived safe and sound. Installed the CIC chips in every unit. Booted up the first board, this thing works like a champ. Has the nicest user interface of all the Everdrives I have tried so far.

Lookin' good, Duo_R.

A question I've been wondering about... Does the speed of the SD card affect how fast the ROM loads into memory?
