There will be a sign-up for pre-order / interest on the retrohq website as there was for the NeoGeo Pocket before long...

I've just been testing everything I'd not tested before on the current PCB as a final check before getting new boards made. Handy I did, as I've just found the UART connections meant I couldn't send data back to the Jaguar, only receive. But I have data being received over UART now, which is cool. I have a few more things to test, like I2S, INT1 interrupts and JTAG, then I'm done.
I've also made provision for an SPI WIFI module (ESP-12E) as well...
There really isn't that much more to check, but my ever shit health is really slowing me down currently.
Things like...
FTP to copy games over to the SD card wirelessly
Serial to IP, so you could play modem games over the internet (possibly!)
Remote debugging for devs
General internet access from Jaguar software (direct access to download games over the internet for example)
You could even get it to communicate with the Amazon Echo service... lol.
"Jaguar. Play some shitty games."
SainT, when orders open up will the Jag SD show on the new.retrohq.co.uk shop?
Yes. If you’ve registered an account on there, and set your mailing preferences to new products, you’ll be emailed when it’s ready for sale!

£140 UKP + postage. Hope it's not too steep for people, there's been rather a lot of work gone into this, and the SLS shell alone is reassuringly expensive! I may offer a board only option at £120 UKP if people are interested, although not for this first batch.

I think it said I was #379, so it'll be a few weeks for me at the very least.
But then one of the comments on the feed said they were like 500-something (posted before my order) so who knows?
But hey, I'm getting one, that's the important thing.
Really hoping the CD function pans out. But ought to be a worthy purchase as-is.
