Cheers guys, getting some good feedback already.

MickGyver - it will happen, later issues of course depend on future support.

I will have a proper announcement probably in a couple of weeks, with the first issue not due till late August, so a little while yet, but things are already in motion, got some good guys helping on various things!

Thanks guys, has been a great response so far, if even half the people saying they will buy in the survey actually do it will surpass my initial hopes, so help spread the word!

I’m setting up a newsletter people can subscribe to from my webshop, which will explain more details with a f.a.q, but feel free to ask anything here for the time being.

I wish the demo disk, if you have one, supports my rare NTSC unit, w/o me plugging the mouse and going through the boot menu.

You don't have to do that, you can use an ntsc/pal commandline switcher triggered by a CD32 button press on boot.

Unfortunately i cant guarantee NTSC compatibility due to the nature of most games being designed for PAL machines, i have put this in the f.a.q i will share shortly.

Interested!

Will you accept bribes from the publishers in exchange for good reviews like the good old days?

Directly or through some local resellers?

Could we ask for how many have taken the survey so far and what you think how many issues will be produced (approximately)?

Lol no bribes, but the reviews will be fair and honest, like any format, if the game is rubbish then buyers should know regardless, they after all are paying good money, but the game cost will also be taken into consideration too.

Still planning things atm, directly for certain, but i have put in the f.a.q if any people want to group together in a certain country and forward to others to save on postage that will be an option on the store.
Regarding resellers, because the price i have in my mind wont give big profits, (I'm doing this for the love of it not for money) im not sure any resellers would be interested on such a small profit margin, but they are free to contact me and see what we can sort out closer the time.

Still getting responses coming in for the survey, its certainly been a great response, alot more people than i originally thought and I'm not just saying that.

Over 200 so far, with the majority being interested in buying in some way, so even if i get a quarter of that buying Issue 1 its a good start, but plenty of time to go to spread the word and bring in new CD32 owners from other retro scenes, the responses so far are just from the Amiga community.
