Unfortunately, additional merchandise sold separately is not available.

The Beep poster has the original CV1000 illustration on 1 side and the 360 LE illustration on the other side.
Thanks for the info! Have these started shipping yet? The 17th is almost here.

I think some people have shipping notification from BEEP, but beyond that I haven't seen anything.

No shipping notifications here. I pre-ordered the LE and got a question asking which POP Iwanted from EXA on the 6th of February. Pretty bummed out, I was going to have a launch party with some friends.

Major bummer….. Let’s hope we get some updates soon.
My Vewlix is ready :awe:

I guess I understood this wrong, "Due to this, preorders received by the end of this month will be shipped in time for the release date on Feb 17."

International shipping begins today and is scheduled to complete for all orders by Monday due to the large amount of orders and DHL limitations.
DHL has a limited number of pickups due to a COVID breakout and that their vans can only hold so many of the POP orders requiring multiple trips.

That's great news! Sounds like lots of copies have sold! Hopefully this can open things up for more CAVE releases. Cough cough DSMB. 😆

Any game but DSMBL. The X360 port is great and the recent PS4/Switch port is near perfect (+5 new characters to play as).

I got a copy for the switch but haven't given it a play yet. 5 new characters sound cool. I need to look into setting up a switch inside my vewlix and figuring out the controls.

My next vote would be Ibara Kuro, or maybe Mushi with the vanilla, Matsuri, and trap label.

#4 reporting in! The game is a lot of fun, and the LE motherboard looks sick.
Since I do not have a lot of prior experience with the game, I am currently focusing on Original, with the goal to shift to Shin or exA Label once I get the clear.

For those who ordered it, be extremely careful when handling it and do not rub over the number at the top right, mine smeared a bit. :oops:

Got the 1cc done with Type C on Original.
Quick recharge works same as on pcb and 360 in this mode, so its pretty easy.

ExA Label and the other two modes seem a lot harder, and also very fun. Will take a while to beat those maybe.

Very well made version. I recommend it!
