With my ultimate optimism I’m hoping that MWeston has already received the cases and has been painstakingly reviewing them in minutiae and that on Monday he’ll be ready to release pictures and give the green light. Lets see how close I am eh?
He is hoping because that’s probably when the cases are expected to arrive, I would assume. Let’s hope they are already there and having been inspected!
So far, assumtions and estimates have caused false hope (and rage). So I hope they’re not assuming it’s going to arrive on monday. At the same time, why would they hold back information and chocolate pictures from us?
I have been away for more than two months.Es before people say it will be soon(within a week).I think this scenario has been going on for at least 6 times.I believe the two months joke is still accurate.Why would this be any different.As long as a paying customer does not receive a Pandora it is still vaporware.I read somewhere that there was sent a Pandora to a costumer more than 6 weeks ago i think.Well i guess that did not arrive ether.Another thing spoken by Craigix and we all now y now that when he speaks it will not be true.
Why do these damn costumers get special treatment, eh? Did Craig have a fancy dress party to go to and didn’t have enough moolah to rent a costume, eh?
It’s taken longer than expected, but there’s been plenty of evidence that things are moving on. To ignore that is either evidence of trolling, or a conspiracy theory of the highest order.
If it still did not materialise jet then the answer is yes but with a well known company it is more likely that it will materialise does not always happen some things stay in the prototype stage.
PS this must be the first time a company ask to prepay the full amount with no defined date of delivery.
I had a defined date for delivery of SSBB 4 december 2007, NTSC release was 22 feb 2008 and well I got my SSBB in july same year(not knowing what was going on at all until 2 weeks before the PAL release, everything just went silent after the NTSC release). I prepaid to get a lower price on the product but there was only a trailer of it of 1 min and 32 seconds.
The pandora is way past prototype stage, MP pieces of everything even cases have been made(though just test runs), its just that those havent really been good enough. And tweaking takes its time.
I feel better treated as a paying customer by Pandora Ltd. than Nintendo. Also nintendo have cheated many games of my freinds they bought through the wiishop channel, cause there was a fabrication deffect which made the wii brake in 2 weeks after they bought it. They sent it in to get a new one, only to get informed that the titles they have bought were locked to the wii that broke and couldnt be transfered. As a company when it comes to customers service Pandora Ltd > Nintendo in all aspects, and if we are gonna follow your definition of vaporware, nintendo sells lot of it.
I really hope you are some spy from nintendo, tell reggie he sucks.
Enough of the non-news blog posts already. If I wanted to read the developers’ latest guestimates followed by countless replies of speculation and other such nonsense, I’d go to the GP32x forum.
Please, post something when new information is *actually available*, not when someone thinks it might just hopefully possibly be…
I hope that after the initial sending of the test batch of hopefully ‘Final’ cases that the remaining cases aren’t sent by international snail mail !!!
” The cases won’t be here until Thurs/Fri at best. We’ve got some really bad weather here right now which is shutting down a lot of services and China didn’t ship exactly when they said they would (shocking I know!). ” – MWeston
See you next Monday (weekend at best) folks
By the way, All team members of Station Princess Elisabeth Antarctica died : Belgian ground support didn’t manage to send any food because of the bad weather!
Are the photos made of chocolate?
More importantly, are the cases made of chocolate?
Maybe both are made of chocolate
It says they are delicious.
We finally know the *real* answer to the question penny arcade asked 4 years ago!
What is delicious.
Finished Pandora cases!

Im Diabetic, I wish to know if these cases will induce a fatal hyperglycemic coma…?
as you have seen the cases are made of dark chocolate, which means that the amount of sugar should be at a minimum, you probably dont have to worry.
I want some chantilly cream on top.
Cases of chocolate?
For my girlfriend the pandora is absolutely uninteresting. But if it’s chocolate… in no way!
With my ultimate optimism I’m hoping that MWeston has already received the cases and has been painstakingly reviewing them in minutiae and that on Monday he’ll be ready to release pictures and give the green light. Lets see how close I am eh?
Here’s waiting!
I think MWeston received the cases and is seriously inspecting/testing them. Or they will arrive tomorrow, that could be possible too.
My theory on Feds is they’re like mushrooms. Feed them shit and keep them in the dark. (c) The Departed
Craigix, we are not fucking Feds!!!!
Hey, an short, ambiguous statement by craigx, how unusual!

I hope they’re dark chocolate!
I hate dark chocolate. Milk chocolate FTW!
Seriously, I think I have some gene that makes all chocolate more bitter tasting.

I waited a bit more than 2 years for SSBB prepayed, does that make nintendo products vaporware.
lol obvious troll is obvious, go watch tv or something and stop waste your life.

Here’s a comma: ,
I suggest you spend it wisely.
