Retro VGS Game Console

[Gredler]

I keep thinking, how stoned were they when they sat down and planned this thing out. The system that will play all games, and be retro but modern, never patch, and cost as much as leading market competitors.

then I saw this pic on the indie go go go site,



Really stoned, apparently. Should've not hit the blunt before taking these promo pics and movie, I mean holy shit at least get some eye drops or something.

Best part of that article was "funded by patreon" at the end. I thought it was a joke.
It wasn't.

At least they're funding something that's not only in the author's imagination like the RVGS.

This post from Kevtris today about his own unit and his talks with the Retro VGS folks almost gave me a lolgasm:

I think the Retro VGS will probably go down in history as the thing that gave us the Kevtris machine.

They are liars, big dreamers, and idiots. I don't think they've ever been high more than once in their life. Carl Sagan, Jimmy Hendrix, and Shakespeare got their ideas while smoking weed. These guys...sniffing Trix, maybe.

The thing with weed is, no matter how f*cked up you get, when you wake up the next day you know if it was in fact a great idea you had or just something stupid. These guys still seem to think this stupid idea makes sense. You can't get actually that high and stay that way for months. People have certainly tried. It's not possible.

I think I am going to give Kevtris some of my money just for the hell of it. For free. Anyone who makes that much sense and backs up everything he says with facts deserves it.

Wow, they told HIM "his is a failed model from the start!" Hahaha! Talk about Pot. Kettle. Black.

"NO, yours is a failed model from the start!!! YOURS! YOURS! YOURS! NUH-UH, YOURS IS BUDDY! YOURS!!!!"

So they kicked a guy to the curve that has lots of experience, knows what he's doing, and has actually built working products and prototypes, etc.

* You and your jag mold are like a mule with a spinning wheel.   Damned if anyone knows how he got it, and damned if he knows how to use it. (sorry Simpsons).

And yeah your old NES outputted 480i at 30fps. So does your mom.

Too many mom jokes lately?  ....Naah!

I still find it funny that the JAGUAR of all consoles is free to be developed for officially, an actual game console that exists, has games and has the same RVGS plastic shell for the console itself and the cartridges.

I hope Kevtris' project takes off. I'm ceirtainly going to be interested in developing stuff for it.

Excellent.

As bad as everything has been handled from the start, I still can't believe that they publically attacked kevtris and started spewing specific bullshit against an established expert. It shows how these con artists really are the self absorbed douche bags that they've come off as since this thing was first proposed. But at least they share the mindset of their target audience. Unfortunately, collectards are terrible with money and so are they.

It's like the tech guys Mike associated himself with said "You got the Jag molds, and you want to put new hardware in Jag casings. That's cool, and we can help you with that, but we ain't working for free. Gather some money to pay us and then we'll start working on the hardware full time."

This is an angle I hadn't thought of...

What if these other partners said to Mike that they won't do ANYTHING until they get paid?  Wouldn't that partially explain his "say anything for the money" routine?   He needs to come through with the green or his dream is broken, when the people who can "make it happen" walk away.

I need to option the rights to the film version of this saga - I'm  contacting both William H. Macy and Steve Buscemi's agents...

Didn't they refer to him as a "fly-by-night hobbyist", or something to that effect?

In any case, they are mental. Pure f*cking lunacy.

Slick salesman with a hat:The name's Lanley, Lyle Lanely, and I've got the greatest idea you've ever..

Well, it's not for you. It's really more of an AtariAge idea.

Rube: What's it called?

Slick salesman with a hat: VGS

Rube: How's it spelled?

Slick salesman with a hat: V G S

Crowd chants VGS, VGS, VGS, VGS

Smart consumer: That thing looks like a f*cking mess!

Slick salesman with a hat: You don't mean the VGS?

Miss Hoover: I hear those things are awfully loud,

Slick salesman with a hat: it plays as softly as a cloud

Convenience Store Owner: Is there a chance the company could fold?

Slick salesman with a hat: Not from what the kickstarter told

Drunk: What about us collectards?

Slick salesman with a hat:  you'll be given plastic carts

Grandpa: Were you sent here by the Devil?

Slick salesman with a hat:  No good sir I'm on the level

I swear it's gaming's only choice, the throw up your cash, and waste your joy.

Crowd chants VGS, VGS, VGS, VGS
