It shows that dieing in SMB can be quicker to get done as the coin boxes respawn after death.

Not sure but I think the first crash in RR is a mistake, but the crash at the end is a good stategy if you can time it right as you save a few seconds not having to wait for the car to stop.

In Tetris, the guy obviously know the piece pattern and mops up here

total score 3.2 million and change

Amazing, I doubt I will ever come anywhere near that much. Impressive for sure.

I guarantee a manual variant if I am getting more boards produced, getting the border aligned is way hard! Should have bought a precision duplex printer...

Next batch of ~25 carts will be done sometime mid-late next week. No other estimates than that. Like all my products there will never be a waiting list, reservations, preordering, or accurate release dates....

i think i might have to linger around for the next batch as well. Would like to pick up another one, plus one of my friends want one too. :-)

Oh no! No duplexer? Man, that's rough, BB. So, I've been worried...you did get my final revision, right? Haven't heard from ya, though you've obviously been mad busy.

The borders were very difficult to make. I'm a master of using MS Word, but those borders were pretty tough. In retrospect, it would have been much easier if I'd done the borders first, not last.

I can imagine that when printing on both sides you'd be wasting a lot of paper if things are even off by a hundredth of an inch on either side, especially when I had to ummm, shave about .01 or .02 inches of the left or right here and there on a couple pages to make it even and lined up.

The good news is the .pdf version converted very well, so you don't have to worry about the borders moving again on that (they tended to move around a bit by themselves in the Word doc)!

I really have to grab one of these carts in the next batch and I thought of a neat idea. Get a clear case and spray the inside gold and give it the gold label.

Spraying the inside of the cart like that sounds like a great idea. I may have to try that when I get mine. I even ordered a clear case too. Would look cool, plus prevent chipping of the paint. Awesomeness.

I wonder what it would look like, remember if you're spraying from the inside out you'd be looking at the other side of the gold paint, who knows what color that is!

/if a tree falls in the woods...

Exactly, and the gold being on inside would keep it distinguisable between the real ones.

Manual's a great real, some interesting new stuff. Diving in this afternoon, gonna give it hell For the record CIB includes these items, unless you want to count the priority mail box as well lol.

I got mine today as well. I got # 9 & 10. Fucking awesome is all I have to say!!!. Everything is high quality, even down the the bubble wrap bags it came in. You rock bunnyboy, I really couldn't be happier.

I also go the 3 of each style plastic case, and they are soo freaking cool. Mad props.

mine is currently sitting in my box at the post office I just have to get up off my lazy ass and go get it....

I got mine today also. I recieved #13 and #14. As everyone already said they are nothing but the highest quality and the manual was a great read. Great work!

#21 came home to me today. Freaking awesome!!!

Did we ever comfirm that yours was the last one Michigan?

I think it was. I believe Brian kept one, Parpunk had one, two didn't work and he had 17 for sale. That would put #21 as the last one of the 1st release copies. Does that sound right to everyone? If so, talk about dumb luck with waking up...woohoo.

I got mine today as well, I am #23! doesn't quite add up but oh well

Wow, I thought I had got the last one.  I thought there were only 20. Well got number 20 today, couldn't be more pleased.

Mine doesn't work. It comes up, but you can't play it. It's frozen on the title screen. Tried 3 different Nintendos and three different controllers. What do I do??

You read the manual! Press start on player 2 controller to get past title screen.

Your fast, I was just coming to retract my statement as I figured it out. Sorry to doubt. It does indeed kick ass.

Yep actually my Messiah wireless controllers really live up to their name. It's super-easy to just change to channel 2, press start, then flip back to channel 1 and get going I've been trying to "wrap around" SMB with a speed run today but I keep losing time on 8-2. I can do the circuit in under 6 minutes easily without cheating but I just can't lose a life; I'm rusty I haven't done speed runs in over a year. Also for a while I was trying for max. points on 1-1 and so I'm really good at that level...not so much the others lol.

I'm just really curious to see how the ROM behaves when you cycle back to the beginning hehe. Will keep you posted. I'm sure I'll get it tonight or tomorrow.

I suck. So far my high score is like 475k. I own and Rad Racer but didn' do that well at Tetris. I haven't read the manual yet either, so maybe that will help.

When I used to play the ROM on my computer, I would just press start (on the first controller) and it would begin. Is there any reason why the reproduction differs from the ROM I played?

Also, my highest score after 2 tries, is 300k. I will improve upon that.

On my rom I have press start on controller 2 on the DC to get it to start.
