From the ASM blog:
PRODUCT UPDATES
1. To celebrate the launch, we've put the Density backlights on sale for $10!
2. We've restocked black screen covers! We found some stock in storage. (Sold out already, expecting new stock very soon)
3. New DMG Shells are in production. Expect some restocks of out of stock colors as well as something new. We have also added DMG Shell Replacement Parts to the shop.
ALTANE4. ALTANE production has progressed considerably, and we are now accepting pre-orders.
So are these Altane programmers fully compatible with macs? If so I must have one!
The new site is lookin' crisp!
Say, any idea of when you're gonna get any black clear shells in? Looking to get one with a backlight and a crapton of black covers as soon as!
Great! Will the blue shells restock when clear and black does?
When clear comes back, I will empty my bank account in your general direction.
Somehow I missed this update. I was on the site looking for parts for a themed design, saw this and said "of course it is purple, of course it has silver text, of course this will go great with my Toxic Green DMG...". If these will be around for a while I will pick one up whenever I place another order. I want to put clear green buttons in it, but I don't know how they will look (brown where the colors overlap?). How do those silicone sets feel compared to a good set of the OEM ones?
Really awesome stuff.
Wow 2014... Been a while.
Although it’s been announced on social media and our official website, for the sake of posterity, I’d like to update this thread with what’s happening with ASM.
We’ve been on a long hiatus after negotiations for our product line to be carried on by another store went south. We lost over a year's time and had unpaid product in limbo. In this time, our remaining funds were going towards storing product that was considered sold. We banked on the deal going through so we could reopen, but it just never happened.
Thankfully, these past few months, we’ve been working with retromodding.com, and came to an agreement for our line of modding products to be sold through their store. I’m incredibly happy with this decision. Olivier has the passion and spark that drove me to create modding products in the first place, and I am confident this is the best decision for bringing our products back to the market. I’ve been working alongside him to order new parts using our tooling and my custom designed CAD files.
As for everything else? We will be opening up a new shop at the http://gameboylife.com site. We’ll be offering a cartridge reader/writer, homebrew releases, flashcarts, and more. It will also serve as a portal for tutorials, tools, any CAD files we decide to make open source, etc… You'll also be able to find us at http://gameboy.life and http://gb.life.
Thank you all for your patience. This is not the end for us. We’ve been working hard on new products, and I’m looking forward to reopening.
Be vigilant.
Awesome man! Feel so much better about this for you than the RCG deal. Stoked for Gameboy life. Super happy your stuff is for sale again!
