Gunlord / Sturmwind - Dreamcast - More Delays...

Post by mjmjr25 »

My wife pre-paid for the:

Newcomer's Bundle for DC from NG.Dev - was supposed to be ready early December, then pushed to late December, now says early 2012. Does anyone have concrete information on this? I'm thinking of asking for a refund at this point...

Also,

My wife ordered "Sturmwind" (redspotgames) for me as it was to ship from EUR in late November and she wanted to surprise me for Christmas. Long story short, it never arrived and she felt terrible, maybe it had been lost or something...so she told me about it and let me know she did buy this for me and she doesn't know what to do. A check up on the website says they had an issue w/their disc-pressing company and are delayed to at least February.

Does anyone have better information on this one?

In either case, independent developers or not, to have access to our emails (paid customers) but to not have alerted by email or other means, is really really poor customer service, imo.

Nope, You seem to have all the info regarding their delays, which has been known for some time.

The info I have is vague. I think someone may have better, hence the thread.

And what I do know hasn't been known to me, for very long, once again, hence the thread.

Please be a dear and post productive OR funny comments, both are welcome in this thread - the above is not.

Yeah, I thought that the bundle itself wasn't scheduled to be in stock until March 15th. Their store seems to say that anyway:

"This product will be in stock on Thursday 15 March, 2012."

Yeah, when my wife ordered months ago it was late 2011...it seems like all the release dates for all the versions have been bumped back...I guess i'll let it ride til 3/15/12. Maybe the "pre-order bundle" sales were slow, and others as well, so they pushed back to get more pre-orders for manufacturing costs / purposes.

Sturmwind was definitely late November - that one has been repeatedly pushed back :/
