Wildlife!

No technical inventions that came later (PCs, internet, mobile phones, smart phones etc.) left me so excited as the Videopac did back then.

Same here. The only thing which could have the same effect should be a new Odyssey. When Philips came with CD-I, I was expecting at least some Odyssey classic, but instead KC Munchkin (), they came with Pac Man.

very interesting.
Are there scans of the Philips Commander Rom Magazine or at least from the catalogs available somewhere? I would like to see them somehow

I sadly came a bit late to the Videopac. We only had a VCS back in the day and I was too young to know all the stuff which was available. I was happy with that what we had. Got to know the Videopac about fifteen years ago when I did some research about the consoles of the early and mid eighties which was, in my opinion, the most interesting time for videogaming consoles.

I think you can find some good stuff on grgh site: www.videopac.com
If I remeber there´s some mag scans there.

It is Saturday March 1 and I want to give an update on WILDLIFE! Cartridges are currently being made and Rafael has approved the manual so those are being printed as well. If all goes as planned, I am hoping to release and start accepting orders on Monday, March 17. (That is St. Patrick's Day here in the USA)

Once the game is ready and I have them "in hand" and "ready to go", I will make a post in the NEW RELEASES sub forum. Look for that post on March 17.

I am not accepting reservations at this time. This will be a release of 100 cartridges and box, so I do not expect there to be a shortage. Everyone should be able to purchase and obtain a game.

thanks

Just want to give an update: As of tonight Tuesday March 11, all 100 cartridges of WILDLIFE! have been made and are assembled in their "new" cartridges.

Next up: Printing of the labels and adhering them to the cartridges.

Also Rafael has approved the manual. I will be printing those this week as well.

I will take more pictures this week as progress is being made.

thank you,

Tim

I'm looking forward to playing one of these on a real console.

Rafael really does some beautiful graphics on the Odyssey. It is going to look great on my 36" CRT.

What kind of shipping costs will be involved to get it to Europe?
Sorry if i ask in advance...

I not sure how it will cost, but ask to Tim on monday, so he´ll tell you the values.

[timdu]

I am happy to report that the price will be the same as our 2 previous releases (GOSUB! and WALLS!)

$25 for the game (includes cartridge with serial number, manual, and plastic storage box)

shipping will be $6 for USA
shipping will be $15 for everywhere else


I will make a post late tonight / early tomorrow morning with all the details. I must now get back to work!

thank you,

Will you be posting some new video?  I am interested in this game, but would like to see more gameplay before I commit to buying.

[timdu]

Yes, I will have more video soon. In fact, the video we are working on is quite lengthy and we must include a spoiler alert message in it because it shows the solution to the game! Stay tuned!
