Hi ljmarent,
I’m not sure how large the batches are, or have been.
Greg Donners website states the following:
Production / Shipping ZZ9000:
Batch 1: 200 cards, shipped
Batch 2: 100 cards, shipped
Batch 3: 100 cards, shipped.
Batch 4: 100 cards, shipped as of May 2020
Batch 5: 100 cards, shipped as of late January 2021.
Batch 6: 100 cards, shipped as of June 2021.
Batch 7: 100 cards, shipped as of June 2021
Batch 8: “Status (Jan 13, 2022): Parts for all cards sold so far (Batch 8) are in stock and production is in progress.”
Batch 9: “Status (Jan 13, 2022): We have reopened pre-sales for Batch 9 which we expect for a June 2022 shipping target. Before buying, please keep in mind that due to the global chip shortage, additional delays can happen. We will ship your card eventually, but patience is key.”
Production / Shipping ZZ9000AX:
Batch 1: “Limited batch 1 presale that started on 2021-08-17 with lower introductory price is now over. Now in production and estimated to ship mid-end of February 2022.”
Batch 2: “Update 2021-12-04: If you pre-order now, you will be in Batch 2 which expects to ship in April 2022.”
“power light turns on, all is well, put it back in its box”
“plugged it in, played a game, it’s great, put it back in its box”
As there are 800 cards shipped, I cannot / will not believe, that they are all sitting unused in there boxes… that would be a great pitty (and very expensive by the way).
Best regards
