I'm aware that retro-console chiptune is increasingly popular so I am thinking that heading into the modding of consoles etc might be the 'naturally' progressive route to go down. Its not that I fear a poor market, it's its finding the side of the industry that is sought after, a niche if you will. There aren't many people in the UK doing it at the moment so it's almost an untapped market here, which in turn makes it difficult to judge the risks of investing time and money in such an industry.
I can fulfill expectations of customers which isn't a problem, its literally just the market research I'm trying to conduct.. I need to know what it is that people want.. I mean, Is a modded Gameboy more sought after than the tools tthat are used to mod? you know, there are a thousand ways to approach this, I just hope that I can take the right path and make some awesome waves .. I want to be able to meet peoples needs efficiently, grow the audience, make enough of a wage to sustain myself and produce some good music
I have some fundamentals in place that will help raise the profile of chiptune.. I find that education is the best source of information so I've begun by making people aware of the possibilities within chiptune.. I have some product ideas already set out for a "learner" or "noob" to the industry.. The ideas are all there, it's just the wonderment of direction, which way to point the compass and head in a direction that benefits both the industry and its community
What I can do is limited only by how quickly I can learn to do a task... In other words, if there is something a can't do, I learn how, then I can do it, So the possibilities are indeed endless.
