^ they used to be ~$26 straight from them, not including shipping.  last I recall they were doing some sort of very discounted clearance price on them.

they'll give you a standard shipping thats pretty high, if you ask them about getting the device, request a list of shipping options w/ prices.

a good trick for removing dirt/debris/dust/some fingerprints from the panels is scotch tape.  it doesn't leave residue and picks up a lot of stuff really great.

in case that helps anyone...

I didn't think this cart had led.

USB activity indicator. Low-bright neon orange.

and it looks soooo, sooo good too. 

this is one of my favorite features of the cart tbh, the way the LED is done.  its classy.

no clue.  KB has its own table.  which we're responsible for manning.

we had to pre-arrange all this, space is limited as are tables.  i'm not involved at all in planning, but to answer your three questions my best: dunno, it seems to be entirely by prior arrangement, and i would say yes.  unless you can coax someone else into staying at your table for you.  or unless there is a community table, which seems doubtful because thats a logistical mess.  for me it would be at least.

i can't speak for the artists who are playing and their merch, or if there is some sort of collective merch table for random stuff brought in unexpectedly.  i've taken on a couple things myself for people, but am full and out of table space now.

works fine on underclocked units.

the slow nature in the way LSDJ responds in your underclocked gameboy is fine.  underclocking slows down the processor speed, you are seeing/feeling it in the slow response. 

if you slow it down enough, you can see the screen refreshing itself (pulsating sort of). 

bear in mind, changing the clock speed is taking the gameboy out of its designed-for operating parameters.  so a lot could go wrong i suppose, but i know for sure these carts work fine on underclocked gameboy, whether with a real crystal oscillator or with something like easyCLK. 

the scrambled logo on start-up seems like a edge connector contact issue, most of the time a blocky logo comes from this.  as cliche as it is, blow hard into the game slot and the cart's connector, and try again.  thirty, forty times as its been said....

Everybody feel free to say 'Hi' to me throughout Blip week.

likewise.  i should be easy to find.  and my table is (planned to be, at least) interactive to a certain degree...  if it all goes right and there are more than 24 hours in days until i leave.  (don't think too grand)

Hey all, now I'm mailing a wad up to NY to (hopefully) make it to Blip.

made it.

10k, the stickers have arrived!

b4by f4c3. the albums have arrived!

anyone else, today is pretty much the last day (domestically) if you've got a hope of it getting here for sure.  leaving bright and early the 22nd, so it MUST arrive on the 21st.  just cleaned out a jam-packed PO Box, it needs refilling.

(not entirely sure if you mean a backlight or the lamp accessory).  but, you could always mod the plug-in light from an incandescent bulb to a LED, and draw less current.  like what people did to the nuby lights.  LEDs look better anyways.  i have no clue what the plug in things even have in them, there is one out there shaped like a blob monster though.

i should maybe mention then, i've been selling 'vc' variants for a little over a month now or close (some minor changes), so your naming it 'vc' is going to be confusing to people (if its not already) as there is a LEDx3 (vc) in existence...
