Just a shame so much is in French, but that's mostly the old stuff.
Yes, we try to use English now. If you need help to understand an older topic, just ask wink.gif

How's this project coming along? I'd love to get my hands on a couple of these carts right now, and then a big batch of them sometime down the line.

When will you be able to give us a better estimation of the cost of them? Also I believe something was mentioned about cart shells, would be nice to get more details on that too.

Thanks.

I (finally !) got a quote from the manufacturer a few days ago. There's a 358.80€ fixed cost (regardless of the number of carts manufactured) to set up the production, plus 28.11€ per board for the parts, PCB manufacturing and soldering ; it goes down to 25.12€ per board if we get more than 200 boards manufactured. The price still isn't 100% sure, because the company has to consult the PCB supplier to know if the silver/gold plating and beveled edges are going to add an extra cost ; that's why I hadn't announced it publicly yet.

One of our Reboot friends has bought a large number of carts shells ; depending on how many people order one, the price should be about 2 or 3 euros.

So, assuming the prices are final, one cart + shell would cost 35€ if we get 100 of them manufactured, 30€ if we get 200 of them manufactured, and probably less for more.

That's sounding pretty realistic now, good stuff!

Hi all,
This looks like a great product.
Thanks for the effort there.

Hi all....

So cool to see fascinating hardware developments make way to the Jaguar.
Any news on this and how it's coming along? I've noticed it has been a few months. smile.gif

Thanks
Clint

The project is "on hold" at the moment, due to myself getting a new job that takes a lot of time, and problems with the manufacturer I had previously chosen.
I'll restart it as soon as I can smile.gif

Hey Zerosquare! Are you still making these Flash Carts?
I'd be interested in one from the USA.
Thanks,Eric

We've not released them yet, but we probably will in the following months smile.gif

Soon... oh wait, that's what I said last time already wink.gif

The technical details have been sorted out, so as soon as the money is collected, we're good to go with mass production of the first Jagtopus-based games. When this will happen is up to game developers to tell me tongue.gif
