Book and Kits

Well it would appear my book is out on shelves and available for purchase! I got my copies last week – kind of strange to look at a print version of something I worked on for the better part of last year, but I guess the initial disorientation will pass in time 🙂

Also on that note I’ve made kits available for the projects in the book. For info on them and the book just click here!

In other news I’m working on another portable which hopefully will be done soon – then I’ll be taking a break for a bit (to allow my soldering iron burns to heal and stuff)  In the meantime, enjoy my book!

Kits for “Hacking Videogame Consoles”

Just today I started getting a good deal of email from people wanting kits for the projects in my book. I’m still nailing down the pricing (and getting the files ready) but there is a temp page for it on my website for the book. Click here for the book’s website and select “Buy Kits for the Project” It has price estimates and a link to email me if interested.

I’m going to try and get detailed package lists and easy Paypal ordering buttons up on that page ASAP. In the meantime I’ll collect your emails and use those.

So please “pardon my mess” as I work to get this ready and thanks for your patience! And hey – enjoy the book!

Actual Amazon ordering links up!

Check out the book icon to the left – that’s what the cover’s gonna look like. And if you click on the picture it takes you to an Amazon ordering page. How easy is that?

I am working on an entire website for the book which will be up soon. The release of the book should be in a few weeks… stay tuned!

Port Washington “Making Of” page in progress

In order to pump people up for the inevitable release of Port Washington I have begun work on a “Port Washington Making Of” page. This covers the entire process, from idea to screenplay to storyboards to filming to effects. If you’re curious about low-budget filmmaking, PW or movies in general it might be of interest. Sure, some of this stuff will be on the DVD, but that’s not out yet!

The first 2 articles and a video are up now, and I hope to get the rest online before mid-February. Enjoy!

Oh, I also found enough case parts to build 1 more CNC SNES portable. If interested, click the Buy Portables link on the left for details.

Port Washington (The Movie) nearing completion

As of this writing we’ve been actively working on Port Washington for 3 years and 11 days. Granted it hasn’t been a solid working 3 years as I took 3 months off from it in 2003 (to make portables and take a break) and 6 months off last year (to write my book) but still… a long time.

And now it’s actually almost done. All the shots are filmed, all the visual FX are done and almost all of the audio is in place. All that remains is the musical score and a bit of looping…

If you’d like to read more about this and other film projects I’ve worked on check out the Movies section by linking the link to your left. Lizard of Death is already available on DVD and hopefully I’ll get The Adventure Double Pack (Both of my “Adventure” movies on 1 DVD – what a deal!) ready soon as well.
