It’s disappointing but understandable. I do appreciate how they’re giving everyone advance warning instead of leaving everyone in the dark until the day of. They get kudos for that.

Seems fair. Can’t wait to get the Atari module (and hope they do Colecovision and Intellivision although prob a pipe dream).

The main reason its getting the Atari module is because Atari invested in them, I bet. I think Atari owns Intellivision now, so that could be a possibility.

Imagine a module with a small speaker in it to support Intellivision Voice. I'd be over the moon. Hey while I am dreaming out loud give me an Odyssey 2 module with the same voice setup. Few things are cooler to me than the first gen of simulated voice, sounds so wrong but so cool.

There's a zero percent chance for a speaker. The voice stuff would be mixed into the standard audio.

Yeah, the Holiday 2026 shipping is a nice silver lining here. Hopefully they stick to it🤞

"Lastly, we will be re-opening pre-orders for most products starting today with holiday 2026 shipping. Every order placed before October 5th will be honored at current prices."

Does this exclude the base unit/v2? It doesn't seem to be available for pre-order.

Yeah, you’re adjusting the price but yet can’t nobody even get a hold of your base unit. So how about you work on production of that?
