Hello everyone!

We cannot thank you enough for your support. We’ll keep talking about FlippyDrive until they’re shipped—watch for all of the cool new features coming in the next few months.

We have officially hit 10,000 units sold. That means 10K FlippyDrives will be in the wild. This is an incredible feat and helps us towards the goal of being the definitive GameCube optical drive emulator. If you haven’t backed yet, get in before the campaign ends tomorrow for a lower price on FlippyDrive and FlippyDrive Deluxe.

Thank You!

It has been incredible working with the community, creators, and other modders over the past weeks to get the word out about FlippyDrive.

We are floored by the level of interest the community has shown in this project. Thank you all for making FlippyDrive possible. If you missed ordering during the campaign, don’t worry! Although prices are going up to $43 and $72 for FlippyDrive and FlippyDrive Deluxe, respectively, you can still order after the campaign closes and secure your ship date.

Keep following along for production updates over the next few weeks. We can’t wait for you to get your hands on FlippyDrive!
