Title: Kickstarter for Nintendo Orange and Blue buttons
Post by: pcb on February 11, 2015, 10:30:00 pm
As you guys know, I've been doing the best I can to supply alternatives for the Donkey Kong and Nintendo players for years now. I've seen folks over the years get folks worked up over this project, and never got it done.  Well....

Now is your chance to help. If have started a Kickstarter to do a limited run of these buttons, produce a mold, color match the buttons and custom make the springs. Here is the live link to actually get off the pot and get the project done.

I already have a custom spring manufacturer lined up (4 weeks delivery), and two mold makers. Both are standing by to start making the mold as soon as we are funded. We are looking at about 30 to 45 days from the time the project is funded to the time the buttons start coming off the production line for assembly.

I'm totally committed to producing these buttons, down to the springs....

Who's with me? You have until Wed, Mar 11 2015 11:59 PM MST to get on board.

Best,
