Playdate - Unboxing and Setup 

Yes, original, cute, but definitely not worth the money

Worth it

@@PavelMy the 53000 people, who bought this would say otherwise

Yes. But as the people are, if it was 50$ nobody would buy. It's like an iphone, if it was a popular price nobody would buy it. Unfortunately. This console is a great thing, different of all. It deserve the price that it costs.

not to mention doing the math it seems like they are making borderline no profit, truly a labor of love@@TEF84

I just ordered mine today and look forward to play it hopefully the Playdate won't take years to arrive.

Think of it another way - you're investing in something that WILL ship and that will be a lovely surprise when it does finally drop through the letterbox!

@@aidenstanley7305 will ship next year, maybe they should wait till next year to take my money.

@@aidenstanley7305 I've done the same thing with the Analogue Pocket. I ordered mine in December 2021 and I'm in fulfillment group c, which is some time in 2023. Like Panic, they also take payment at time of ordering but honestly I don't mind this because I know that when the time comes to ship I don't have a surprise bill and I can just sit back and wait for it to drop through my letterbox. Have to say as good as the Analogue pocket looks, I'm way more excited for the playdate.

Honestly, I'm really enjoying it. The games are great pick-up-and-play titles, so I tend to play it when I have a few free moments. Your mileage may vary, of course, but if you like simple games and the ability to side-load all sorts of indie stuff, then you might like it. Keep in mind that if you order now, you likely won't receive one until 2023. You can check out my other videos for more Playdate content. I've done reveal videos for all the Season 1 games that I've received, so far.

@@jluedtke thanks for the much needed input greatly appreciated think it was the last straw I needed (planning on pre-ordering for 2023 batch) have you tried the game making component that is really what I'm most interested in...

@@pokadot Hey! Sorry, I replied under my other account. :D Pulp is a really neat game-making program, and you can use it and test your games without owning a Playdate. You can try it out at play.date/pulp

@@MoJoMenace you're fine honestly didn't even notice thank you for the link 👈😎👈

Wow. Joy Alamer!

you throwing it in the garbage? 💀

A year?

@@Bigbrokevo They need to make more parts as there are many people trying to get a playdate

you should consider this is one of the most impressive ink displays and is basically an extremely impressive technology You should also understand this was not mass produced by a huge megacorporation but was made by a bunch of dudes like you

@@aquaponieeestay mad

​@@aquaponieee The display isn't e-ink, it's Sharp Memory LCD.

It's made for enthusiasts. The black and white screen is a very deliberate choice -- it comes with some interesting quirks, such as being very energy friendly and individual pixels not needing to be refreshed every frame. I got mine just now and it's a super cool little thing, although if you're not into indie games or have any interest in gamedev it might not be worth the money.

Yes it is

Только не за свою цену. Там рассыпухи на долларов 20

@@NickyKun Может быть, ну все равно прикольная. Я вот думаю щас брать пс2, хз, зачем я это написал

Someone made a camera for playdate.
