Hopefully it will also glow in the dark.

Depends on if we can find a reliable supplier of quality glow-in-the-dark plastic :/

[Punch]

I'm expecting their next release to glow in the dark, assemble into a transformer when combined with other copies, have a Super FX + SVP in it, etc. but still have the same jewel case design that doesn't close properly.

Don't forget the pogs either!

So, what kinds of limits are you guys self-imposing? Are there certain titles you aren't going to reproduce? I'm already glad you're asking our home-brew folks before trying to do their titles. What are the determining factors of which titles you select and which you'll avoid?

[thesteve]

well as for title limits, we didnt put a mapper in the card, so only direct addressed games
the intent was to try to undercut the super rare price gouging titles, so cheaply available cards will be ignored for the most part
as for the homebrew games, they are currently produced titles, and as such it wouldnt be right to undercut it (however we would love to supply the blanks, or produce the cards for the homebrew scene)

I would be interested in these if there is a way to get them for a reasonable price in Europe

Maybe something ala Krikzz

Bulk buy to save on shipping costs? Shipping outside of the United States is a pain, and very expensive if using any kind of tracking.

So now that you guys have sold to Tobias and he is reselling Magical Chase at a rather high price, haven't you undercut this part of your own rationale? I'm concerned that you've effectively destroyed any practical defense you could mount against criticism.

Well, ours are still available at the same lower price point so we're still undercutting Tobias higher prices.  But yeah there are always criticism on what we provide.

Something I've been wondering regarding regions: is it possible to make a Japanese region HuCard that plays the Turbo version of Magical Chase? Is it a matter of pin location, or is the data sort of "hard-set" for each region's version?

Yes it's possible and vise versa.

One of the best ways to combat eBay resellers is to put the wares up yourself. Of course, you've got to make sure what you are selling is kosher first.

If people are dumb enough to pay a reseller (who is taking a big risk by posting content that violates their TOS) big bucks without doing a simple google search to see if the items is available elsewhere cheaper, then a fool and their money are quickly parted.

As for eBay resellers selling goods that aren't allowed there (Turbokon repros would fall under that definition), their auctions should be reported for violation.

So if you can't beat em, join em, and if you can't join them, report their asses!

And watch ebay do nothing 99 times out of 100.  As long as they get their fees, they have zero f*cks to give.

I actually posted some of the repros on there and was eventually was reported and they cancelled my listing.
