whaaaa? I got onto the Castlemania pre-order and haven't received my shipping notice yet. Retro-Bit, do you know if Castlemania is lagging behind on getting these shipped?
Last we heard, he was busy fulfilling all the orders as his stock arrived earlier this week. I am sure they are going through all the pre-orders as we speak.

ETA is late November/early December. We got some preview videos from our factory and wow - it is SO shiny. We hope to have some early review units out before then so people can see all the good stuff.
EDIT: Updated release ETA. Had to check on shipping ETAs.

I played some Galactic Attack to try it out, and initial impressions have me happy with it. I also have to say the blue is really nice in person, I think the photos you guys have up for it aren't doing it justice. It's really clear too on certain parts of the controller, makes it very easy to see the internals.
We are happy to hear the feedback! It can be tough to get a good pic of clear controllers. Too much light and the internals "re-color" the clear side. Too bright a background and then the background overpowers the color. We're leveling up our in-house photography and it'll be more apparent when we launch our updated site (which is much more image friendly).
Also, shout out to everyone who tags us on social with your amazing pictures. We love to see them if you got them.
