And, very importantly, major game companies expressed interest in providing games for our system, which meant we’d need more time to solidify those partnerships and maximize the content. - Mike Kennedy CEO Retro Lulz Systems


You have got to be shitting me.  If they have legit working hardware what does this have to do with delaying a kickstarter at all.  If I ever met this guy in person I would have to ask him how in the hell he fit all the shit in that he is full of.

Well, to be fair, I understand why any project like this would want to have publisher/developer support (contractual commitments!) as early as possible.

Again, not *promises* of support, but actual games available to play ASAP.

:)

That said, I don't believe RETRO CHAMELEON is getting the level of interest/support that Mike claims.

That's why any project like this would be years in the making and would secure enough software before being revealed to the public and not even mention a kickstarter until they had enough software secured to justify one. Instead they started talking about about it and asking for mobey as soon as they had a colored variant of an existing console shell and nothing else. Now, so soon after starting over, they are already asking for money when all that they have is a consoke shell, WiiU pad and Coleco name.

They never planned to do an actual kickstarter this time. They're just waving this thing around hoping for the right people to back it like a real console, only then will they try to buy the hardware to stick in it. They will continue to lie about secret deals with major software publishers, still hoping that rich people will hand over money without seeing a business plan, software contracts or a working prototype.

Yeah, certainly the "winning team" was able to provide more good source material to keep this going for those with the energy to derive every last bit of lulz, no doubt about that!


:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
That was priceless.
Agreed.
Lol, I have to give you kudos on that one NightWolve, a solid chortle was had by me.
Dunno who made it (tried to find out), it was passed around on Facebook groups where I got it. Of course it had to be immortalized in this thread!

But hey, I just thought of something, by calling this thing a "chameleon" weren't they technically being honest ? Don't they deserve credit for the unintentional honesty in a naming decision ?? ;) A chameleon camouflages, deceives, blends-in in its natural environment to protect itself from its enemies, and so, they kinda did that here, they didn't have a real prototype to demo, so they tried to pull another con job just to get by while they still work on it... :P

An Atari Jaguar shell camouflaging the guts of a SNES motherboard... You can't write this stuff, and yet it's reality right before our very eyes!!! Simply amazing! They sure are out-of-the-box thinkers in a way, I'll give them that! Well no, that's not really how I should compliment them, I can't think of how to express it. They certainly have guts to have come this far in the face of so much ridicule and I still wonder, how ever so slightly, if this isn't all a great troll job on their parts!

Yeah to me this is the biggest red flag. Who the hell would trust these clowns?

I can't wait for the Movie to come out. Kevin Spacey should portray every character.

Someone told me that it's been IDed as some sort of video capture card. I have no confirmation of this but it's a pretty believable idea, based on what we've seen.

EDIT:

Oh, here it is:



Mike must be fuming with hatred for the nerds he's trying to sell this shit to...

They just can't stop lying.

The only photos of the clear shell "prototype" left on their facebook are ones that don't give you a decent look inside. But they still have a photo of that clear shell with a video capture card floating inside, next to a TV playing one of the SNES games. Even though they're so dumb that they believe this will fool anyone, they still are purposely moving forward with absolutely nothing and just making it up as they go along. Makes that fake RVGS workbench seem legit by comparison.

I just now read about this latest shenanigan with that capture card.

Wow! These guys just don't know when to quit. How deep do they want to dig that hole?

I sure hope there are some legal ramifications for their actions.

Hahahahahaha..... my gosh!  Mike Kennedy is a moron.  I think we should start a Kickstarter to collect a bit of cash and pay Mike Kennedy to just give this up and also deliver what was promised on his failed magazine.

I said it before and I will say it again: Retro VGS (and now, the Coleco Chameleon), have been elaborate examples of

PERFORMANCE ART

at a level of absurdity not seen since the Dadaists.

There is no other way I can interpret all of these shenanigans.

:)

Personally, I know that this thread will NEVER END.

Mike & Co. have been dropping clues that this is performance art the entire time—have you picked up on any of them yet?




Makes that fake RVGS workbench seem legit by comparison.

I was thinking the same thing!

Past transgressions are minor compared to the current art/deceit.
