I ended up getting my original order last year sometime I think... or maybe it was a little earlier, time has flown so I don't recall specifically. I did jump on the kickstarter, too.
I thought he would have had all the original orders resolved by now though, hearing you guys are still waiting is concerning.
Ya I haven't received it yet either and I was also an investor in 2013. I got an email early last year about a package being shipped out but I didn't get any tracking info about it. I just emailed them from their new website. I guess thats all I can do right? This is so dumb.
NEW Website?? intriguing!Quote:

He should just sell the rights to another company with the means to get things produced. Kai magazine (Life on Mars) should be able to get this baby out and I'd have much more confidence with them behind the wheel.Quote:

That’s why Fonzie hired all those MMA bodyguards and refuses to leave France, because he’s afraid of all those customers he defrauded. Would you like the scam email Watermelon sent asking for my PayPal address so they can process the refund, and then the hyperlink in the email routing to a website maintenance in progress? When it did work an almost bot-like response to my inquiry asked for my PIN. They want me to give them my PayPal password? There is no way to ask a real person that it doesn’t have to be a refund, the actual game that I ordered would be nice.
I live in the USA. I have the multitap model 2. I'm just missing something........what is it again...........oh yeah, Paprium.Quote:

That's alot of posts in a 2 year time period!
I think I'm more troubled by the idea that, in the ten-plus years making of this thread here, past forum members might have actually since died and still there has been no proper release of this dumb game...Quote:

Even if the day comes where people do see this in their mailbox, how could anyone possibly be excited about owning Paprium let alone playing it by then?
Yeah, I'm trying to imagine the thoughts of a widow getting a copy of Paprium in the mail 6 years from now, or later, and wondering what it is. This scenario could have already happened. Really messed up..
If I ever receive it, I won't be excited. I'm not exactly sure what I'd do. Sell it new, unopened? Play it? I just don't know. 🤔
Pretty sure the Paprium thread is only rivaled in size by the "say something random" thread.
Damn I missed out on this game :(
I played it for the first time in a couple of years this am. It's a turd rolled in glitter. Not a really stinky turd, and the glitter is quite evenly and artistically distributed.
I could not believe all the things that happened in my life whilst waiting for this game, new house, new job, became a father. Madness! I'll have read back at some point, but I assume there has been some drama with the KS for this?
Hello to all by the way!
I don't know if I'd call it drama, because everyone knew Fonzie's ways very well at that point, so the people who funded it knew what they were signing for. The same goes for that dolphin beat 'em up (aka AMB96) that was supposed to come out 1 or 2 years ago.Quote:

Speaking of which... wasn't WM supposedly forced to sell off all their IPs a couple of years ago, including the dolphin game?
I can't even remember if that actually happened or if it was just a way to get out of delivering a product.
Should have checked out these forums back then. A lot of drama.Quote:

That sounds extremely unlikely, given his character. He'd rather blame everyone and blow himself up than admit he has bitten more than he can chew.Quote:

*pokes with a stick* man this thread looks dead. Fonzie should probably stop touring Hawaii and actually give us like anything right about now"
