Pintsized (new Magazine)

I didnt mean pirated material, I meant music people in the scene have made...that would be far more interesting anyway

 

[mattmagoo]

what about selling the SMC idea every 2 months with a collated version of the last 4 issues (if it's fortnightly) + extras?? then it would have much more content and be nicer to have.....

thats a really great idea....I'd go for that,

if it is a general gp32 mag, could the smc feature music in ogg for people to check out or even mods, little flash vides (if that works), you know just exploit all the different features that the gp32 has...providing people are willing to donate content to share with the community

we though about this, and possibly even putting on any homebrew games we reviewed in that isssue

but then we would have to get consent from the dev'rs

Oh trying to plug your music . Sounds like a plan.

Pintsized Team: I think you guys should release special ones on SMC's. If anything it will give me an excuse to buy a new SMC

haha....perhaps.....

I think the SMC Ideas a really good one.

IMHO best way would be to release issue 1 with/on an SMC, then do 4 issues Internet only, then issue 5 on SMC (with content of issues 1 thru 4 also), then another 4 issues then issue 10 on SMC (with 6-9s contents), etc...

Charge about £10 (including Delivery) for the SMC issues, £0 for Internet version - but people must register - you may even be able to get some Advertisement that way, which could help pay for compos...

*shiny box -ooooooh*

Man, how did I miss out on this?!?!

Fantastic idea guys, you can count me in. I'd be willing to pay £8 for an SMC every couple of months...they're always useful for movies and stuff anyhow.

 

[finty]

If you are doing an SMC every once in a while Id like it to be 128MB, no matter the price. (Except if its over priced).

Yeah, same here. I'd be willing to pay £18-20 for a 128Mb. I don't mind giving you guys a couple of quid profit...speaking of which, how will you sort out the payments for this?

ebuyer have 16mb sandisk SMC cards on at £2.99 with free postage at the moment. thought it might be usefull to know. but maybe not.

what about offering different sizes? some folk want cheap, some want 128mb smc's. why not offer it on different sizes for folk to choose. suppose you might end up with a certain size not being popular and be stuck with stock of them on the other hand.

keep up the good work by the way...


oooh....my first post B)

[finty]

Sounds like a great Idea being washed away due to too much thinking. JUST DO IT!

/me breaks into song and dance.

"Just do it....just do it..."

 

[PinkSpider]

Ill pay as long as I can do it by other means than paypal (cheque/ postal order etc)

 

[mattmagoo]

well

thanx guys, and over 20 people have said they would pay, but when push comes to shove will u really (no offense, but if it were me i'd just forget)

but I think we are gonna give it a trial run with issue one (maybe not straight after it is released) but those 16mb card mite be exactly what we need

 

[sam fisher]

[sam fisher]

Hey. I will donate some 16mb smart media cards after my holiday. Well can I sent you the money instead as ebuyer won't work for mw. Lost my old account.

 

[mattmagoo]

[finty]

Make sure you reserve one for me magoo.

 

[sam fisher]

Few things:

- collect your pre-orders, if enough, send
- smcs should be given out BEFORE the internet release date, as an incentive
- ebuyer does bulk discounts automatically, might come in handy
