The NES Oddities books are in and shipping will begin on Monday as this weekend I'll be at Replay FX in Pittsburgh. If you are local to that area and/or are attending the convention you can get your book there too, plus bonus treats!
You can check out the quality and more about the content here.
Also, the Nintendo Compendium book is fully edited and off to the printing company. If you backed both books and want your Oddities book early, let me know.
Thanks for the support and also check out the "Cool Ass Items Club" I started too.

NES Oddities Shipping and Compendium Progress Update
almost 9 years ago
– Mon, Jul 03, 2017 at 03:18:06 PM
I've been busy over here with the madness that is getting these books done. Here is a status update:
NES Oddities & the Homebrew Revolution
The books are completely printed and clearing customs currently. Talking with the printing company last Friday, they are estimating that I have the books in hand by the end of the month. While this has been taking a bit longer than expected, I showed off the advanced copy they sent me last month on a Facebook live stream and they look amazing! You can follow along at facebook.com/hagensalley
These books are extremely solid, just like my previous ones, however I have added in extra upgrades and bonuses as a small thank you for your support. Once the books get here, I'll ship out single book backers and those that paid to get the book earlier. That being said, what about the Compendium?
The Nintendo Entertainment System Compendium
The NES Compendium is now finished and being submitted for proofs this week! That being said, if you want to get a proof copy let me know so I can gauge how many to order, the cost is the same $40 plus shipping as the original but it is paperback and hasn't been edited. That being said, if all goes well at the current shipping speed, I should have the Compendiums in hand for fulfillment in mid-September.
Final Thoughts
The shipping has been taking a little longer, but the bar has been raised. Also, keep in mind that VGBS is entering it's final few days, so if you haven't check it out please do! www.tinyurl.com/vgbs1.
That's all for today and thanks for your continued support!

NES Oddities Editing Done and Printing in Process!
almost 9 years ago
– Wed, May 17, 2017 at 11:52:12 AM
Last weekend I finished the manually editing of the NES Oddities & the Homebrew Revolution book and now have implemented all those changes/submitted to get printed!
The process will take a month or so until I get all of the books in hand to ship out to everyone (NES Oddities and Early Shipping Backers to start), however during that time frame I will be finishing up the NES Compendium book so that one is done by June/July and ready to start the 1-2 month manual editing/printing process. That being said...
I have individually e-mailed each contributor to the Compendium so try to get those personal stories to me as soon as you can. The quicker I get them all, the faster I can get the book publishing process started. The due date for story submissions will be June 15th, which this is the first time I have posted that. So please get your stories in by then or sooner.
Thanks!

NES Oddities & the Homebrew Revolution Proof Opportunity
about 9 years ago

The Book is done and getting submitted for the proofing on Monday!
For the first time with a book release, the proofs are going to have a variant cover from the regular release. I am using a rough Black & White cover from Philo Barnhart for the proof copies and, to my knowledge, they are going to be paperback.
Proof Cover
Keep in mind that with these proofs that I use my copy for the editing and for checking the image quality. That means that there won't be many of these created as I'm just doing these based on the demand. So if you are interested in getting a copy, shoot me an e-mail or a message ASAP!

Hitting the Home Stretch on the NES Oddities!

I have a bunch of Famicom Reviews left to write then it's time to get the proofs. You know what that means... time to show off the cover!
As always I like to be transparent about the process. So once I finish the writing, I will order proofs to do some major editing. For the first time, I'll be doing a variant cover for the proofs, which will also be paperback this time around. If you are interested in getting one, let me know! Here is the proof cover.
Cover only on the Proof!
After I finish the editing and make the changes, I'll then do the print order. The printing will likely take awhile, as it has in the past. While that I going on, I will be working on the NES Compendium so make sure you all finish up your stories!
Let me know what you think of the everything and I'll update again when I get the proofs in hand! Thanks everyone for the support!
