Contest end tomorrow and I think now is the good time to start taking preorder for the open beta.

I will make 25 BlueRetro DevKit available and they should be ready around December 2020. The first 25 persons on the preorder list we be offered to buy them once they are build. (No money taken upfront)

I will sell each DevKit 100 USD since the low volume and external assembly will add to the cost. I will also make any cable you want for 20 USD (30 USD for those that require more work). Alternatively you can buy a cable kit for 5 USD that will only include the PCB pre-soldered with the SMD parts & the DB25 connector. (You got to source the cable & backshell yourself).

You can add your name to the preorder list via this form:

Once I got the board ready, I will send PayPal invoice to the people on the list. 

On another subject I made kicad symbol for all consoles controller port. It's quite nice! I updated all cable schematic to use them! Also checkout the new cable assembly guide.
