@Jeevan Hey, thanks buddy!

@Code Monkey

While I agree with you about the original intent of Kickstarter, I think you're turning a pretty significant blind eye to what Kickstarter has become. Not only that, but Kickstarter has at the very least ignored this, has allowed projects like this to flourish, and has even promoted and encouraged them. If you want to boycot/shit on anyone - shit on them. Or maybe shit on the big companies that do this same thing or worse (take millions of dollars, then take forever to release a garbage game).

Even if a indie project is done/mostly done, it allows for indie developers to get additional funding for supplies, and gets their project out to a much much larger audience (and in theory brings more attention to the homebrew scene), which we should be thrilled with in the end.

I'd argue that if the only projects on Kickstarter were ones that actually 100% -needed- Kickstarter, there would be much fewer, and many would be much less interesting.

Interested! When do the guardian girls ship?

Tomorrow AM. Haven't been able to get to the post office this week, but I will get them there first thing tomorrow.

I'll take a copy of Piss the Fish.

Got a copy last night.  I wasn't even aware there was a VGS homebrew store like that and I guess there was an earlier release by neodelphino that I missed

There's a chance I may do another small Haradius run in the future, if there is enough interest.

8PM EST tonight we will be listing more copies of GGGG if anyone is interested!

First batch sold out in less than an hour.  Another 50 should be available soon-ish!

Stay tuned!

Just a heads up -  The first 50 copies of the NES version of Gold Guardian Gun Girl will go on sale on VGS tomorrow (5/29) at 3PM EST!

I'd recommend a nice whiskey (or whisky if you prefer scotch... which most cigar smokers do, by association of the smokiness/peat flavor).  I find that beer or wine does not go very well with cigars, as the flavor of the cigar dulls most of the pleasant flavors associated with them.

Also, when lighting - use either a spill, a match -AFTER- the head has fully burned off, or a torch lighter (though try to be very quick/use sparingly).

While im not sure if you are an admin or not (not sure how to tell) i do appreciate the heads up. I reread the policies and sure enough i am going against them:(!  I’ll consolidate but i may need help deleting some threads

by policy you are only allowed one selling and one buying thread. Now I didn’t see anything about FO or OBO but i might have missed that. I do see that if im truly selling (FS) i need to put a price.

ill be correcting these

No worries - thanks for being so receptive

I am on the Homebrew team so not a mod per-sey, but I have access to mod stuff and keep an eye out for stuff like this

Is VGA qualified another way of saying factory sealed?

No.  VGS Qualified (or Q) scale is for games that are opened, but in new/like condition. The contents are examined and supposedly confirmed to be what was in the release/complete.

The regular VGS scale is for sealed games.  You can tell the difference right away by looking at the color on the grade sticker - regular sealed scale is pink/red - qualified is blue.

Hi there!

If you post an item as "FS" you need to have a price listed (though you can make it OBO).

If you don't want to put a price, you should say "FO" (For offer) instead.

Also, you shouldn't have more than one active sale thread at at time - you have at least 3.  Please consolidate them!

Thank you!

The most I've spent on a Kickstarter:

Happily I received my pledge in full:

Pretty similar to this: 

Hope it ships in a reasonable timeframe

Only 6 copies left, if anyone out there is still interested.

Copies now available here:

Sweet!  Will these be CIB as well? (Fingers crossed)

They will be just as complete as all the others

The 25 boards showed up today. Should have them assembled and up for sale soon (minus a couple).

Hey guys I own a few VGA graded games that I've picked up over the years but I've never sent in my own submission until now. At the beginning of the submission they ask which case style I'd prefer, classic or clear view. I just want the same standard case style as 99.9% VGA graded games I see, which based on the description sounds like clear view? If someone could clarify that for me I'd appreciate it.

I tried to look up what I did on my previous orders, but couldn't see what I selected. From the descriptions, however, the clear view is what you are looking for.

The classic view I think is what was used more for their other colectable grading services traditionally.

Put me down for one!  Should I just keep an eye on this thread or what?

Yeah, that would be a good idea - I'll try to remember to message you as well

I ordered one a long time ago and unfortunately it has yet to arrive. Is there any way to obtain Some form of tracking information? 

If you PM me your email and the date you ordered, sure.

I happily purchased one

So, how many were you planning on making total? How many have been made thus far?

200, 150

I think I'll order 25 more boards for 175.

Anyone who wants one, please let me know.

Alas, they are indeed. 

@neodolphino might have a spare? 

I do not have a spare, but was going to order a couple more for various reasons.  I do have the supplies to make 50 more overall, but would need more interest, I guess.
