I am not familiar with them, who is behind this company? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They started off looking like an alternative to LRG and SLG and even did a re-release of the chiptune soundtrack to A Hole New World, originally sold by LRG. They appeared on my radar when they handled the KS for the GB homebrew Tobu Tobu Girl Deluxe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fcgamer | 4,719 Posted June 24, 2020 Share Posted June 24, 2020 Is Tobu Tobu still available? I remember seeing it and wanted to get it when the ks has been around, but funds were thin then so I had to pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, check out their website and you’ll see the US/EU version, the JP regular edition, and the JP limited edition. They also have a famicom edition of the A Hole New World soundtrack. https://firstpressgames.com/collections/collection?page=3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn’t seen anything from Kickstarter in awhile. An update from The 6502 Collective on the Trophy Kickstarter page yesterday mentioned Rollie when discussing manufacturing delays: Most of the small delays that we have encountered will not be felt with the Trophy release, as it should only be delayed a month, and the fallout has been worse on Collective projects that were already further along. In those cases we have had everything save a single piece, with stacks of games built and waiting for it. For those who backed or have since pre-ordered Optomon's Rollie, please know that it has not been due to lack of effort to secure parts, and that the project will be shipping soon. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/solegoose/trophy/posts/2881973 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
