At a relatively low crowdfunding goal of $1999 (Although this is probably more a reference to the year the console came out than the actual amount they need), VGNY is initially offering 6 colors (clear, smoke black, transparent purple, transparent orange, silver and gold) and if the campaign reaches a certain milestone in funds raised at least 2 additional colors will be made available.
As a long time customer of the store which is situated a couple blocks away from St. Marks Place in Manhattan, I can guarantee this won’t be a campaign where they take your money and run. The team has shown they have done the heavy lifting by recreating the shell digitally and even invested in the injection molding molds, meaning these won’t be just cheap 3D printed shells. The store has also entered the publishing front with their VGNYsoft where they help indies publish physical copies of their titles after they’ve been passed up by other physical stores. So I believe this project is on the up and up and I can expect this product to be available at their store, website and their convention booths for years to come.
While I’m not exactly interested in the colors announced, I do look forward to the color possibilities…Chrome? Pearlescent? Glow in the Dark? I just might have to nudge hard enough and the Dreamcast VMU of my dreams might be a reality sooner than I think.
