I think it's one guy that assembles another one as they sell. It restocks constantly.

The US sellers are Retro Onyx and Stone Age Gamer, they sell it for a higher price but it comes in a premium metal shell. I did not get whacked with a tariff when importing this one.

I grabbed a Mr Cart (Virtual Boy "Everdrive") from these guys. Works great, no issues to report. Good price too. www.vr32.uk/shop/MrCart-...

Not to worry, it will be sticking around. I have no plans to end production.

Approximately 30% of RetroTap launch day orders have shipped. The next batch is estimated for October 27th.

Often when a factory announces a sunset plan, 1-2 years out, they’ve already begun phasing down production. Liquidating equipment and reassigning staff. I wouldn’t be surprised if that was the case here and the allocation ceiling is being lowered.

Now the focus turns to shipping orders; please allow up to two weeks. The next batch is approximately 6 weeks away. 6/6

Atari 2600 cables which sold well during presales sold slowly at release. Meanwhile, the inverse occurred with TurboDuo cables which sold very poorly during presales. These sold strong during release. In fact the 6 ft sold out! I was not expecting that. 5/6

Mean Well PSUs sold at about double the expected rate. I will address this for the next batch. The quotes I am getting back from the vendor have a hefty price increase but I am fighting back to try and keep this down. More to come, I want to avoid a price increase if I can. 4/6

I expected a significantly larger percentage of people to use the PS2 Slim PSU. This tells a story where early adopters / presales lean heavily towards the PS2 Slim PSU, but release day customers did not. 3/6

Email went down, blocked by the provider due to the volume spike, around 11:30 AM. This was resolved in less than 30 minutes. If you did not receive an order confirmation email reach out: kytor.com/store/contact/ 2/6

Thank you everyone! RetroTap launch day was a success. There was only a brief site crash after 11 AM EDT but it recovered and held strong for the remainder of the day. Inventory planning was based on feedback and presales. Some interesting trends and lessons: 1/6

You can simply leave the 32X cable disconnected, there is no concern with doing this. You can also run dedicated cables, either way produces the same result.

Analog AV should have a clean ground return path, the analog signals to scaler can return through the power system ground which can in some cases lead to small levels of audio hum. It won't damage devices, but it's not ideal. Scalers should have their own power supply.

It is a poka yoke design, the opposite polarity are physically different sizes. The cables are not proprietary, you can use any readily available off the shelf m/m cable.

There is a fair chance Mean Well PSUs will sell out, so I've linked multiple approved alternates on the product page. Full announcement: kytor.com/retro-tap/ Store product page: kytor.com/store/product/retrotap/ /4

There will be continuous batch re-stocks of RetroTap, with no plans to stop production. This is not a limited one time release. I have a healthy stock of DC power cables, I do not expect to sell out of those. /3

It was great seeing Kyle return, but the Mike title card, ending of the video with the flashbacks and final line of “he’ll always be there” gave me bad vibes. It made me feel he’s having serious health issues.

Got my RetroTap from @kytor.com setup and first customer system to be powered by it! One small box mounted to the wall that covers most of my 50+ system offerings is going to really streamline my setup. Highly recommended!

The direct store (kytor.com/store) has been migrated to a better CC payment processor, which comes with some added perks: Support for Google Pay and Apple Pay checkout. PayPal is still offered as an option for those who prefer it.
