Original Post

This is the official announcement for the release of Bound High complete with box and manual like it always should have been.

Together with Mindstorm and Bigmak we have been able to assemble an all star team to get this together.

Couple of notes.

There will be an original 50.
The plan is to make 100 of these total. If there’s enough demand we will continue to make them. But once 100 sell we’ll need a bunch more to do another batch!

If you have already paid and/or agreed to pay for the box and manual, you can still receive the box and manual. Or you can use the money you paid to put towards a Complete in box version.

What you get.
Box, manual, cartridge with label, inlay, and i believe inserts (bigmak?)

These will ship out in roughly 2-3 weeks

The price of the game, shipping included will be

US price $71 USD
International price $75 USD

We’ll be staring on our second release, Space Pinball. We look forward to doing lots of these. And other releases. So, get your butts in gear game designers!

The first 20-30 carts will be in my hand soon. So, the first 20-30 people to pay will get there’s in the order received.

This list is the initial list I have for people that have paid or have requested they be added to the list for box and manual only. These guys/gals get first dibs.

Since I cannot update this original thread I’ll be keeping track on my own and on Nintendo age at this thread. This is the official release thread! If you’re on this list and have paid and I have forgotten, please let me know.

If you’ve paid 25 or 30, just subtract that from the price and that’s what you owe.

Please contact me via PM or post in this thread to be added to the list. The sooner you pay the sooner your game will go out and the higher on the list you will be!

Thanks a bunch. Attached is the box image. The rest will look just as amazing!

Only 1 left in the first batch. Next person to pay gets it! All others have to wait for batch 2. Which means like 2-3 weeks.

Just donate it to James Rolfe.

I just paid for it, so now I will officially have a completed box!


@thunderstruck
– James Rolfe (AVGN) hates the Virtual Boy, he truly does. Why would you send him a game for a console that he hates? He didn’t even want that copy of Jack Bros. that he was sent for free.

I think there was maybe a little sarcasm going on with thunderstruck there….

Put me on the list for a full CIB + the $3 label option (or whatever)

What happened here anyway? I haven’t been on in a few weeks and this shows up out of nowhere. I though no more bound high carts were being made because of someone selling one on ebay?

Simple really, a change of heart… 🙂

I don’t know if he truly hates the Virtual Boy as I have never met him in person. All of his AVGN videos are over the top rants and don’t necessarily represent his opinion. If I ever meet him I will ask.

Even though his AVGN review is over the top, he has some fair points. It is nearly impossible to sit comfortable in front of it, the game-library is rather small and most of the games are mediocre. Finally, most of the games are not Virtual Reality.

I think most of his work is truly funny and inspiring. I wouldn’t be developing VB games today if he hadn’t made his VB AVGN video.

That said, I was sarcastic when I said that Tusker should donate the game to him.

Wouldn’t have mattered either way, as its now part of my collection. 🙂

Please add me for a 1 x Complete with International Shipping
75 $ Right?

I can almost smell the ink and cardboard! 🙂

Payment Done!

Hi,
I would love a complete one,

Box, manual and game 🙂
Waiting for your news.

Shipping to France

Thanks

So… how near is the first batch to actually being shipped?

The first batch should be shipping, the latest, monday. I haven’t gotten the carts yet, but they are en route. so, Not much longer. I’m very excited. Once all the pieces are assembled together I’ll take a picture to show it off!

I purchased a cheap insert with the 2 manuals off of eBay to complete my box of Bound High! It was less then $7 shipped. Huzzah!

Awesome snag!

Pictures coming soon!

Yeah, I didn’t wanna canabilize a CIB of Baseball. So when I saw the auction for the insert, precautions book, setup manual and dust cap; I snagged it. I am so excited for a complete copy of Bound High!

Heh… it’s funny that you mention that, because in order for the seller to be able to offer that, he does, in fact, cannibalize a CIB of Virtual League Baseball, and he sells the cart separately.
