@pixelplus : First of all, thanks for your order ! I'll address this design question today by sending a mail to those who ordered and check if people have a clear image of what the design looks like. I am saying this because you might not be the only one thinking that the "GAME BOY ZERO" will have the same font as the "DOT MATRIX..." on the original Game Boy.
The design I am planning on doing will look like the Game Boy logo font, but written "GAME BOY ZERO", I thought it looked clear on the image but you are correct raising that point, thank you !
The text is not 100% white on the original DMG but this is due to the way it is silkscreened and with time I think it changed a bit but I will most probably use 100% white for the text as the result might look more 'fresh'.
Also, the link you sent is not perfectly accurate in terms of dimensions, and reproduction. I am trying to be more accurate on that side, but agree that the font you mentionned would be more suited. I might use it for a second version with "DOT MATRIX WITH STEREO SOUND" text
will update soon on that part.
@BlueberryPhazon : it is planned yes
and your "LCD matrix with PWM audio" is nice I'll suggest it as well if that's ok ?
@WoodMill : good news,
we just reached the 100% !!! so now I can assure you that Gorilla Glass with silkscreen border will become a reality
I will keep the orders open till friday (included) and after that will close batch 1 to place the final order with my supplier ! Rest assured, those who missed this deadline will be able to order a batch 2 with same design, min order quantity will be lower for this batch 2.
@uke : Thank for your order as well ! For second design, I'll make several proposition of design and see what people vote. I'll have one with simple borders with no text, and others
tl;dr :
We reached the 100% of minimum order quantity for GG1b1 !
THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR TRUST !! <3
I will
close orders for this batch on friday (included) and pass the order with my supplier by then.
Batch 2 (called "GG1b2", i.e. same design) will be open just after, with a lower min order quantity.
Other designs (called "GG2b1", "GG3b1", "GG4b1" and so on), will be suggested and open for poll/vote. They will be subject to same min order quantity as GG1b1 (this one).
