Title: Have you emailed Act-Labs about the TV Lightgun yet???? DO IT!!
Post by: Jakobud on December 12, 2002, 02:38:43 am

Regarding the message posted about a week ago, I hope everyone has emailed Act-Labs about making a TV Lightgun.  I got a nice response from them.  They said they were considering making them if they felt there was a demand for it.  Then the email also said to keep an eye on the website in the next few weeks (as if expecting an annoucement :)

So guys, if you want TV Lightguns....go email them!

btw, don't unless you really going to buy them.

Act labs will only make items while people buy them.  If they loose money, then they might stop making anything that has some risks.  They are one of the last joystick companies that are small enough to make new items that aren't meant for the extreme masses (ie, microsuxs).  I would hate it that they could only stay in business making thumb pads.   I HATE thumb pads...

but if you would buy one.  Write and ask if you can preorder them (or how soon until you can).  If they get 100 people who are willing to preorder them, that makes more of a difference then 200 people who are generically  interested in a product.

This post really has no value but:

Oh my god I hope they make a tv version, it'd be so cool to play area 51 on my cab with a 27" tv.
