Jagtopus, the new technology for cheaper cartridge products

[Gunstar]

Jagtopus is cool, I also pre-ordered AW, but it's not any cheaper using Jagtopus for us Americans on this release, I payed $83 U.S., I can get new, actively published Songbird cartridges for that price.

Did the Blackout! 23 copy release use the Jagtopus? How much was that one U.S.? Orion mentions 80 Euros in the Blackout! thread, that would translate into around $100 U.S. right now., so...definately not cheaper for us Americans IF Blackout used Jagtopus. If that was a normal cartridge release at about $100 U.S., then I guess I am saving with Jagtopus at $83 U.S with AW (except for Songbird cartridges). We need a U.S. produced Jagtopus game if we are going to see better savings.

[Gunstar]

whats sucks is the waiting. I pre-ordered a week ago, and I know the pre-order period is going on for at least another month, and then months to wait after that! I've waited enough as a Jag owner! I've been very patient for Jag game releases and delays, and lost and foudn and released 10 years later for the last 20 years! COMPLAINING! Blah, blah, blah... (chain of emotions I had in 2 minutes while typing reply)

But you're comparing something sold in the US to US with things sold from Europe to the US. I think to be more fair, the Songbird titles on 4mb carts are actually $80 to $90 plus shipping, in the US that will be $88 or $98 domestic delivery and $120.00 or $130.00 to European destinations. Another World is $82.something delivered the other way, so it's roughly $40 to $50 cheaper in a more direct comparison. Then again, RGC are a non-profit organisation, they only aim to break even.

Did the Blackout! 23 copy release use the Jagtopus? How much was that one U.S.?

No, Rush bought boards and eproms for both runs and did all the work himself. My cart copy of BlackOut cost $100.50 delivered US to UK.

We need a U.S. produced Jagtopus game if we are going to see better savings.

US devs using US produced carts makes the most sense, I'm sure there's stuff in the works for future releases from US devs. The only people releasing on Jagtopus for now will be the Jagware teams (and I'm not sure if Seb considers Removers as part of Jagware or not, but the relationship is the same).

When you consider the 1.5-2 month lead time on the carts themselves, it's easy to see why a few people doing this in their spare time are going to need 4 months or so to make it happen.

I don't really know what the status of Jagware is, but we (The Removers) certainly support and help to promote the Jaguar platform. In that sense, we are part of Jagware.

Individually, I am grateful to Jagware members who helped me in the discovery and understanding of the Jaguar platform. And I am happy to visit Jagware forums as there are lots of useful and relevant information.

Gunstar, I understand your criticisms regarding the price of Another World release.
Thanks to the RGC, the price is only 60€. This is not cheap, but this is not unreasonable.
If I had to publish the game on my own (ie creating my own company especially for that purpose), the price would have been not less than 80€ because of taxes.

If I felt the price was unreasonable, i would'nt have pre-ordered a copy, just stating that while it may be cheaper over there for Jagtopus games, it's not any cheaper over here for them. BUT, it could be much more for me if they weren't using the Jagtopus!

WTF ?!?

What do you get for 10€? A poster with a list of games?

It's just a company that prints Wikipedia pages. There are thousands of "books" like these that are printed on-demand.

Coming from the RGC team :

Hi all,

since December 18, 2012, you trust us for publishing project of Another World on Jaguar.

Friday, February 8th, we removed the Paypal button on the web page pre-order as we were at the limit of stock forecasting. Therefore, please make your request by e-mail, you will be placed on a waiting list for this series. Depending on availability of cartridges, you will probably lucky to have a copy. You pay yours when we contact you to June 2013.

For a second series cartridge Another World, we do not confirm anything yet. The waiting list will give us an idea of the number of requests. Do not be tempted by copies "sold at exorbitant prices" from the first reception from 2013. Put all your chances with the waiting list and get a reissue if applications are sufficient.

We also remind you that we will not make price "big" because i his is a pre-order for reaping the background.

We are reachable on our forum and email.

Thank you for your understanding and the trust you place in us.
