You dont get it though. No one is pleased with the stupid auctions you are running, and the whole thing about thinking we are naive about you and Kevtris and the financial side of things. Combine this with even slight promoting of another item here that not many give a flying f*ck about, other then collectards, and things start to stack up that will start to piss people off. It's like you don't even realize you're poking a hornets nest.
People pretty much expected this to just be a kit that would be released that they could buy and install themselves, similar to the NESRGB. Instead you guys are doing a totally ridiculous cash grab launch, forcing people who want it to have to pick between your ebay auctions or an Analogue NT product. The only people you are winning over at this point are idiots with cash to burn. Everyone else is just like wtf....
As for the free slight advertising for the NT, seriously, look at this thread first before deciding to promote that item:
https://www.pcenginefx.com/forums/index.php?topic=18458.msg390455#msg390455I mean it doesn't take a rocket scientist to look at that and realize its not smart to promote the NT around here, regardless of if it uses your product or not (and god forbid you make the same mistake on the Neo forums). Worse so in fact that you chose to supply Analogue instead of just providing said boards to normal users so they could just buy them outright and install them, or choose a person of their liking to install them for them in their own systems.
What also kind of bothers me is there is not really much of a field test going on with this final batch of boards you got in. Honestly before even doing a launch there should have been some 4-5 month quality testing done. Instead you're using analogue customers and ebay idiots to test the product. That in itself is pretty scary given the price and the fact that youre not advertising a free extended warranty on the auctions (like a 6 month return/service policy).
Also, still waiting for that sound comparison video....
