ZX Vega+ Discussion

I can only assume at this point that they have plans to "save the day".

Assuming they are not crazy, what could be their plans?

The current situation as far as I know is:

- about 100 people of over 2000 got crappy, unsuable prototypes
- the rest of backers got nothing
- money was wasted on legal suits and other stuff

So what are they trying to achieve, except a satisfaction from a victory over their enemy ???

Maybe build a commercial unit (a bit like the C64 mini which has been successful) and then also fulfill the backers orders. Those guys who backed the C64 mini initially backed a handheld device and a full sized C64 recreation...that was then "changed" to the C64 mini with the promise that backers would get a 'free" mini and STILL get their full sized creation when it was done...so they are basically getting 2 devices, one free, on the back of the commercial success of the mini.

Seems like a possible solution with the "free unit" for the Vega+ backers being the one they didn't get...if you get what I mean.

Looks like the directors change isn't that obvious as you could believe:



They'll probably fight with each other until the last drop of blood

Chris and Paul's appointments have now been termimated.

[beanz]

by who?, themselves?

Hi @beanz

There is no mention of that information.

Interesting...maybe they just closed everything down then fired themselves. Guess we'll see.

[Joefish]

Or someone contested their appointment in a filing to Companies House.
One party seems to be claiming they were not appointed by the board, the other that they were instead appointed by a majority of shareholders.

[Ralf]

Instead of these crappy legal battles they all should actually meet in some dark alley and resolve it once for all
in a manly way, like in Renagade or Double Dragon

The winner gets the company, the princess (ups, no princess this time) and ...obligations to deliver Vegas to the backers

Don't forget to check out Slope's Game Room's epic "KickScammers: The VEGA+ Scandal" whilst you can. Daniel posted earlier to say that it will apparently be deleted tomorrow at midday (UK time) "due to a few issues behind the scenes"...
