Nintendo NES Everdrive - taking pre-orders
« on: April 25, 2013, 12:44:36 PM »
Update 5/2/13

now taking pre-orders. I submitted an order today - it just became available to back-order on Retrogate. I ordered the following:

10 - NES N8
2 - Fami N8

so limited quantities, if you want N8 submit it quick since I only have 2 pre-ordered as of now. Pricing is simple, pick your package - they go up $10 based on what level you want.  I make a little $$$ here but it is really for time organizing, designing and the time it takes to put this all together (as I am learning from the N64 groupbuy). You guys have seen my modder work before - my goal is for you to receive these items and feel like you bought a deluxe package from one of the deluxe sites, but without the deluxe price. I don't ever plan to go BIG on these orders, but hopefully an alternative offering helps drive down some of the prices out there.

Note - for the 2 people that order Fami N8 - the cost for basic or deluxe will go up depending on the price I can get donor carts to fit. If you have some donor carts that will significantly help.  
 
Pricing is as follows (note add 4% via paypal or send as paypal gift payment):

Pricing does not include shipment
Core Package:
$90 - I am making $5 on this package -really for time organizing the buy and also I put the funds down 100% upfront. Big sites online charge $109 for board only so your still saving (even though they get it for less than that) - win / win
* board only





Basic Package
$100  
* Dremel work for SD slot  
* Label for the cart
* Gray cart from a donor NES Game - option for custom coloring is $5 (Flat Black, Charcoal, Bright Blue)


Deluxe Package

$110
* Everything from the basic package
* Universal Game Case - custom dremelled to fit NES cart
* Glossy insert for the game case
* Simple instruction card for your Everdrive
* Label for the cart
* Custom cart coloring no additional cost - pick your color: Flat Black, Charcoal, Bright Blue)
     - coloring is added for free, so same cost if you want stock grey

Note - for deluxe package I am custom modifying the universal game cases for NES carts. They will fit but I have to dremel some tabs so it will properly fit. I will post pics so you see what it will look like.


Mock-up - not final product








TAKING PRE-ORDERS NOW - 50% down on the package of your choice, actual shipping will be added prior to sending out.

Buyer to pay actual shipping - via USPS Priority mail and tracking added. Insurance is optional.

I might be interested in the Famicom Everdrive if the price is right. I already have an NES Powerpak that I never use.

I would love a Fami Everdrive - the kicker for me is not having a Source for the correct case for Everdrive. I would need a bunch of those games that are compatible including a couple so I could practice opening without damaging. If you guys know of a source then that would be more appealing. Otherwise NES Everdrive is just easier overall for me because I have access to NES cases.

I'd prefer the fami version myself. I have two of those Nintendo converter carts (Gyromite and Duck Hunt) that I can toss it into to play on the NES. Plus I was considering getting me a Fami system so it would be win-win either way.
