GP-Wiz49 Software finally ready (link & screenshot)
monkeybomb:
I ordered mine last night because I think it is at a point where it's okay. I figured that the first change is all we will see for a while and I am happy with what the current offering is. I also checked out the software before I made my order (already shipped I might add)
I also guessed that people will create software to work with the current firmware if anything new happens.

The product isn't stable enough, there's been firmware upgrade, new features, etc. I knew that was going to happen as it seemed like the product was rushed to market without much testing, especially with the responses given in the 15 page thread. It's like buying a new car, try and avoid the first year/version as it has bugs. So as a consumer I am going to wait for the actiont o settle down.

I don't think Randy is ignoring requests, but as you pointed out, if he doesn't stop changing it every day, then more people who are waiting for the final product will delay buying one. I think at this point it is doing what Randy intended it to do, so it is "finished." Think of the first 15 page thread as R&D and this thread as support for a finished product.

Hey Randy.
Any chance of getting a couple of 49-ways and a GP-Wiz49 to Kevin over at Retroblast for an in-depth review? ;)

Everyone says that 16-way isn't any good for 720, however, I am looking forward to using it with my Intellivision emulator, Nostalgia <http://www.shiny-technologies.com/nostalgia.php>, so even though I don't have any of this gear yet, I am interested in 16-way operation. (Intellivision's had 16-way disc controllers with a 12 digit keypad and 2 "action buttons")
