The last time i looked, the numbers were above 3,000 for the final run and that was a few days ago. So I would say, Analogue sold 5,000 units for this run. No way to know which orders were for 1 unit or for more than 1 unit though. They only sold one per person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Californication | 1,477 Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 That was a shorter window than I expected. I think we found it was 3,000 on the second day. I don't rrally know what that means though. It would be nice if someone had a number from today or yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TDIRunner | 2,730 Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 Are you guys saying more than one per person, or more than one per order? Because that's two very different things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RH | 4,898 Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 So, did they have preorders for the handheld? I really thought I was on the mailing list but I don't recall that being offered. I'm trying to bank a bit of cash for that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have promised to reveal the order date ahead of time. Honestly though, I'm not sure that's a good idea since it may crash the site. But they are tech people so presumably they would be prepared.

RH | 4,898 Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 Yeah, I think that handheld is going to be a hot one. It's price pretty reasonably and having the ability to play practically every type of cartridge imaginable kind of makes it a dream device.

My girlfriend tried to buy two and the system wouldn't let her. She ended up using her work email and mailing address to purchase a second one. Lol.

ifightdragons | 234 Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 (edited) Is this going to be a thread about stocking, reselling and speculating/price gouging on Analogue products? Can you make a new thread in the VG Economics subforum and continue the discussion there? This doesn't belong in the Gauntlet subforum, which should be about playing games and systems. Not hocking them online. Edited March 6, 2020 by ifightdragons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deadeye | 1,596 Homebrew Team · Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 Someone mentioned this in the GC discord If you have an NT mini noir in your cart, their web site will let you order it or more even though it is sold out. I got to the payment screen. I did not test it beyond that. I don't need additional units. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDIRunner | 2,730 Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 Quick question. While I'm familiar with the different Analogue products, I haven't been following their website or store. Have any of the Super NT and Mega SG colors that are listed as "sold out" ever been relisted or are those most likely done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadeye | 1,596 Homebrew Team · Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 @TDIRunner unknown. In the past, Analogue would change items from Sold Out to Discontinued eventually if that was the case. However they were never quick about it. They rarely answer questions on social media anymore. Best bet is to email them. They will answer those. https://support.analogue.co/hc/en-us/requests/new 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's incredibly expensive and will likely cost me big in customs fees. Same here sans-customs fees. The hardest part for me is the $499 price tag charged immediately. I've been spoiler by Amazon and their ilk not charging until shipping. July is a long wait, especially when it could easily get delayed due to COVID-19. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you that charging for the product upon shipping is the most fair business practice. BUT, one thing that's nice is that however long it takes, you kind of forget you've paid that money, and it almost feels like a free purchase upon delivery.

DoctorEncore | 3,690 Posted March 9, 2020 Author Share Posted March 9, 2020 (edited) Man, Analogue can be straight up mean. They keep twisting the knife on all the people who missed out. They have pre-written tweets going out everyday advertising the Nt even though it's sold out. Ouch. Edited March 9, 2020 by DoctorEncore 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErickRPG | 42 Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 I'm having trouble with 8bitdo m30s. My first one's LED would not come on no matter what I did. Ordered another one and after a week it won't pair with the receiver. Both of them have their blue light on, solid. Won't reconnect no matter what I do. And I read how to reconnect by holding down the middle mode button. Damn. my SN30 has never had trouble what so ever. This is really frustrating me as I still haven't returned my first m30 to amazon.

ErickRPG | 42 Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 I tried to update the firmware and even that couldn't recognize the controller. I was watching a how to youtube vid and some guy mentioned hold L+R+S and I tried that and the blue light flashed. So I tried that upstairs and it connected. The instruction manual says nothing about this. At least I have a button combo to try if it doesn't pair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ICrappedMyPants | 302 Posted March 20, 2020 Share Posted March 20, 2020 I’m glad that I was able to snag an NT mini V2 preorder. I wish they would explain how they improved the cartridge slot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoctorEncore | 3,690 Posted March 24, 2020 Author Share Posted March 24, 2020 Not sure if anyone else here ordered, but replacement Mega Sg Game Gear adapters started shipping out yesterday.

They display a PAL error message and require reseating the cartridge. I have no idea what causes it, but it seems it only happens in carts with pins running the whole length of the PCB. Hopefully this problem is fixed on these new Nt Minis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deadeye | 1,596 Homebrew Team · Posted March 25, 2020 Share Posted March 25, 2020 GG adapter comparison 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
profholt82 | 60 Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Regarding the Game Gear adaptor, I've been using the updated 1.1 model that they sent out for about a week now, and it works great. When I first tried it, I was getting nothing however, then it occurred to me that I hadn't updated the Mega SG firmware for the better part of a year. Since I did that, the GG adaptor has been flawless. And I've really been enjoying Star Wars and Shinobi, but Outrun Europa sucks. Just throwing that out there.
