Kickstarter - Your source for retro games?
ShoothimNow:
For the Transparent colored controllers from RetroFighters, the "plug ends" are going to be grey.
I will be dissembling some of my controllers and making a fake account, donating $1, posting the pictures on the comments showing what it will look like, and retracting my $1.
This company man.... sure the controllers are probably awesome, but they are so... feck'n.... cheap....

They are just plain ridiculous. I'm just gonna get a hori pad at some point and call it a day.

Big fan as well. I bought pretty much all books that Pix n' Love published (french editor), Third edition is a spin off of them.
I have the FF books (VI to XII) since many years (in french). It's nice to see that they are translating their books. Some are hidden gems, some where even limited editions impossible to find today.

What about iBand+? Anyone hear of that? It's on Kickstarter and another crowd funding site. It's supposed to be some kind of device that let's you control your dreams. Talk about VR! I'm both excited and terrified of this. Mostly excited! Because I want to fly and ride on dinosaurs. When I get bored of.... other stuff. Anyone else have an opinion on this device?

I got the first season books, haven't read through them yet, but what little I did read was very insightful. Can't be "collecting" these books given how pricey they are, but I did back for all 3 books.

I didn't have time to read through everything yesterday. Do they go into more detail as to the difference between the "standard" and "collectors" editions? That's what I want to know before I decide which level I want to back. I'm pretty sure I will at the very least back one book, but I might back all 3 in the collector's edition depending on what the difference is.

Standard books
Collector books w/o sleeves
The sleeves for the collector's books features what the standard books look like.
No other differences, I believe... maybe they have built in bookmarks, I don't know for sure.. Definitely appears to come with a lithograph.

The dust covers are kind of ugly. I wouldn’t want them if they game them away.
