All sold out. Got on the mailing list so I can snag a Missile Command when they come out.

How good is the track ball on Centipede ? Anyone here know?

Just bought the Dragon's Lair original poster jigsaw puzzle from these folks. Can’t wait for it to get here.

The Dragon’s Lair original poster jigsaw puzzle from these folks looks great and is now on my gameroom wall.

For those who like doing jigsaws, this one is very well made and fun to work.

It isn’t framed, it is mounted on brown fiber board from Lowe’s or Home Depot. Approx 1/8” thick, a little less.

We do a lot of puzzles and this is our method. You'll need newspaper, white glue and craft sticks (tongue depressors or popsicle sticks).

Flip the completed puzzle over. It takes a little practice.

Spread white glue over the entire back with the sticks. Keep a damp wash rag handy for drips. Spread newsprint over the glue and smooth down with clean sticks.

Flip it back over and clean up any glue.

When dry, glue to the fiber board. We cut ours 3/4” or 1” larger all around for a border. Dragon's lair's border was painted with black acrylic, but usually we don’t bother.

I’m in!

If anyone is tired of their Centipede, DM me...

I’ve just emailed them, asking if QBert will ship in time for Christmas. Hope so.

They said that QBert is being manufactured, shipping hopefully late December.

Probably not in time for the holidays.

seenev They just told me it is being manufactured. Do you have special access to know what is actually in the works?

Missile Command! I’m in!

I’m hoping for a Centipede re-issue. There was one in the big bundle, but it’s way too rich for me.

Philosophical Question: get Dragon's Lair even though I’ve been all the way through it or get Space Ace, which I’ve never played?

Is Space Ace as good?

I’ve ordered QBert & Missile Command. Seems ify to keep giving them money for further and further out. But I probably will.

I'm in for DL with the red trim. Was sorry I missed the first one. Also have QBert ordered (for my wife) and Missile Command. Those are the only games I’d want.

Unless they reissue centipede.

Any one here like Qix? Quirky, but I loved it. I’d get a Qix in a heartbeat.

But no others.

I don’t think.

So, I've bought three machines now, got all caught up in the frenzy and never asked myself... are these little machines too small to play? Has anyone here played one?

Still waiting on mine. Don’t remember if I bought the preview or after.

I haven’t even gotten a tracking number. Must have missed the preview. I forget.

They don’t get great reviews.

They have my money on three games. I’m not buying any thing else from them until I have the games.

Update on the regular QBerts- they are booking passage for the week of May 2nd.

Too soon to know when they’ll arrive at Replicade.

Got my shipping notice on the Q*Bert I ordered a year ago. Delays due to Covid and Chinese holidays, don' cha know.

Got our QBert shortly after that last post. It was a present for my wife. She loves it. Even the texture on the cabinet is right.

Anyone heard an update on Dragon’s Lair or Missile Command recently?

Sometimes they post a progress report, so I was wondering.

I’m not buying any more from them until I have what I paid for. Missile Command & Dragon's Lair.

Missile Command update: hopefully shipping out by late October!

No news on DL.

Anyone have an update on Dragon's Lair ?

I am disappointed with Missile Command's track ball. Feels rough, like there is sand in the mechanism. Also, it behaves like a mouse configured to move too quickly across the screen. But I'm working and have only played with it for a minute or two.

I’ve played with the settings some. Seems better, but I haven’t really had time to get used to it yet.

It is weird that you have to watch an unrelated ad before you can watch the NWT ad! Seems like they'd be tech savvy enough to post the videos on their own server or pay YouTube so their potential customers don’t have to see someone else's ad first. Bad marketing.

Just got my shipping notice on Dragon's Lair!

Got mine!

The instructions say it comes with a mini disk player. I got a disk. They probably meant just the disk. Did anyone get a player?

What would be decent specs for a monitor to play Dragon's Lair and QBert on? Would any flat screen monitor do ?

I’ll check. Didn’t think the back opened!

Very well done

Anyone miss out on Missile Command & want mine? It isn’t playable for me. Maybe my fingers are just too fat.

I’ve got all the packaging, including the shipping box. It is only very lightly used. Would sell for what I paid for it from NWT plus shipping. DM if interested.

I had DL on a PC once. Got all the way through. But I’m stuck back at the beginning.

When DL is set on unlimited lives, is there a way to tell the machine you are done playing? Or do you have to turn it off?

In the meantime, hook it up to a TV via hdmi so you can play it. You can tell it to use the external monitor speakers.

I liked Marble Madness, but it’s a track ball game. If the ball is the same as Missle Command, it’ll be worthless. I’m very disappointed in Missile Command’s track ball.

Nice collection! If you'd be interested in Missile Command, dm me!

New blacklight "mini posters" for $15. They ain't kidding with 'mini' -- 4 x 6. $15 for a photo size blacklight "poster". They don't say if it is on card stock or thin paper.
