Groovy Game Gear Still alive?
« on: February 20, 2009, 11:34:01 am »
Does anyone know if Groovy Game Gear is still doing business?  I've been trying for over a week to get in contact with anyone who can tell me if the GP-Wiz49, Electric ICE buttons, and Micro-Leaf are still in production and if so when can they be ordered again.  It's been over a week and no response.  I fear that my CP plans are in grave danger of needing a complete redesign  :hissy:

  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.

RandyT was just on here earlier. Though I'm sure he'll notice your post, go ahead and send him a private message

Sometimes Randy is really good with replies and other times not so much. I see the ice buttons have been out stock now again for sometime, wonder whats up with that? Still plenty of those Tron stick though.  :laugh:

Already tried the PM a couple of days ago.  Though, if he is still posting I assume that means that he is still with us  ;) Hopefully he's too busy working on restocking to respond  ;D

I wouldn't worry about it.  I've seen the ICE buttons go in and out of stock.  He'll have some again at some point.  Just make sure to order them promptly when they do come available, because they won't stay available.

I had a question on my Key-Wiz and Randy responded within 24 hrs, including the time zones as I am GMT.

Try getting AOL or Sprint returning an email as fast.

Randy - you da man!  :applaud:

I hope he replenishes his Microleaf switch stock soon. I've really been wanting to order some, because spring break is coming up and I was hoping to upgrade my PS3 arcade stick a notch while I have the time off.

I just checked back at GGG today and the microleafs were listed as being in stock again, so I ordered a couple. I'm not sure how long it'll take for them to arrive, but the site definitely looks like it's still active. :)

I received an e-mail from Randy with an update on all of the parts that I was looking at buying and GGG is most defiantly still alive and from what I can see doing well. 

Thanks for all of your hard work Randy!!!!   :notworthy:

I sent an email to randy last week about the electric ice buttons and he said he was hoping to have them in this week, but obviously he is at the mercy of his supplier.

I got a repro Tempest spinner knob from him. He's my hero!!  8)
So a leper walks into a bar and as he gets his beer, a finger falls off. The bartender who is serving him turns and pukes all over the place. The leper, feeling bad, says, "Was it my finger falling off?" The bartender turns to him and says, "No, it's the guy dipping chips into your back."

They better still be alive. I just dropped $100 on a TT2 spinner and token spinner knob!  :cheers:
