Get your FlashBoy+ here

Chris is tied up with exams for the next 3 months. So, I will be both making and distributing them now.

If you want one, you need to send me a donor cart. This will guarantee you get a cart (a sort of pre-order).

I will be making these on a one-by-one basis, so be prepared to wait at least 2 weeks from the donor cart getting to me and your FlashBoy+ being dispatched.

The package will consist of the cart and USB cable (no box) the new price of $100 (+shipping) reflects this.

Anyway, if you are interested, please Email me at -

Thankyou

This is great news for the VB community, thanks for your efforts on this! While I already have my non Plus FlashBoy, I really love being able to play every game released for the VB and I hope others will enjoy this as well. Without the FlashBoy I would probably not have been this happy with my VB.

Would have been nice if we talked about that before, Richard, as I am sitting on tons of donor carts and box prints. So, in theory, we would be able to offer those to the people as an option. (Boxes probably for self-assembly.) Should be cheaper and more convenient for most people than having to send in a donor cart. And they get a box. ;-) Please let me know if that's an option.

No box is one thing but no CD with the software either?

Just emailed you.

Also I asked this question in the email but I figured I would ask here for others as well. Is the price $100 in US dollars, euros, or pounds?

Thanks

I have seen my fare share of confusion over people using the wrong symbol. Also I know that all the older FlashBoys have been sold in euros and I see MineStorm is located in GB so I just wanted to make sure.

Hang on to them, they may be needed for Vaughanabe13's cart.

and box prints.

I never saw the point of having a box. I don't supply one with my other carts. But if folks really do want one (so they can get $455 on EBay) they can always buy direct from you.

The latest driver is available from my page - www.vectrex.biz

Everything else that was on the CD, can be obtained here.

Instead of spending your time just adding snidey remarks to posts, why don't you actually contribute something to the community ?

Write a game / make some hardware etc
