More DIY FLU Kit Bitching

[Cpt_Kirks]

Since nobody has complained about the DYI light kit in a day or so:

It's Friday, where is the kit? I'm starting to think like the newbie conspiracy theorists.

Has anybody *YET* seen pictures of the kit, or heard more than "coming real soon" rumors?

 

[Bonks]

thats yer lot

Whole thing was a rumour spread quickly over IRC, came from the JoyGP forums ... sorry

hi guys,

why dont you do what most people have done or seem to be doing hence the influx of gp32's on ebay lately.

sell your fluLESS gp32 and buy a new flu gp32.

 

[ralp99]

yeah man, gotta love the totally-self-contained version..! no wires hanging out and crap.

Can we get an afterburner for gba, disassemble it and put in the gp32? :blink:

 

[mafen]

since the gp32 screen is larger than the gba's screen, the backlight wouldnt cover the entire gp32 screen.

 

[Axeman]

Well... bitchin' isn't gonna get it done faster.

You may aswell just wait and see. I know its a pain, but I dont think they;re holding them back just to piss you off!

 

[Cpt_Kirks]

You have your theories, I have mine.

Personally, I'm putting my aluminum foil hat back on and going back into my bunker...

 

[ZiUL]

Where can I get a VERY VERY VEEEEEEERY cheap afterburner kit? even an used one... I need to do some tests... haiouahaua...

I just read some of the korean, and this is my understanding of this webpage. (I only skimmed it.) This guy apparently sent in his gp32 to hahotech and waited one month to get it back. It's basically a review of the FLU and how he likes it. One thing he didnt like was the position of the switch for the light and describes a better place to put the switch. He mentions that the color of his case is nude blue but I dont know where he got it. Hope that helps.

 

[mafen]

actually, now that I surfed his webpage a little, it seems as if he bought his gp32 with that case. And his box was so much cooler than the one I got when I bought mine!

 

[nerd of nerds]

Actually (correct me if i'm wrong) that is a special pre-order edition gp32(It came without the light). I THINK you would have had to live in korea to get the special edition gp32. <_< The blue gp32 is pretty cool though. i want one...

The lack of a DIY FLU is what is killing the GP32 experience for me at the moment. The only time i really get to play is in the afternoons after work, and by then I have no sunlight to give me a clear picture.
I just hate having so sit at awkward positions underneath a ceiling light in order to play it properly. And then afterwards walking around in pain because my back, wrists, arms and neck are killing me. It became so tedious that i stopped playing my GP32 for 4 months and came close to selling it on eBay.

Can someone (craig preferably) please give us some solid info on whether the DIY units are/are not coming? If it takes another 4 months for the things to arrive then i'm caving in and selling my GP32. I cant warrant keeping something which is gathering dust and cost me a fair wad of cash when i could easily sell it and atleast use the money on something more important.

I think in my opinion it will be better to buy a good lamp for the house or appartment, it will not just be usefull for the GP32 but for everydays life ;-)

Hey i ask one for a Christmas gift since my room was too dark!
