Why does it take months when the production already started? Are the cards put together manually by a single person?

I do not know the details, but it is only a little after Chinese new year right now. So that may be a factor.

Is it worth ordering now, or is it better to just wait until they are prepared?

I think it's worth ordering now, if you wait too long you may miss out on the current production run, and since it's been confirmed that they will be out in the next few months I'd say there's no risk paying now if you do intend on buying it. These limited runs of awesome retro games sell out pretty fast, I regret missing out on the first run and am determined not to miss out this time.

It is best to ask Brandon these sort of things, but another Lynx game may happen.

i got news on the game today from Brandon

Production was delayed until we could adequately stock Star Odyssey, our new Genesis / Mega Drive game. However production is now in progress, so please continue to be patient.

Thanks.

However, their site still says "Note: At the moment, Zaku is out of stock but is still available for backorder. As soon as the new stock has arrived from our factory, your order will be mailed to you. "
Great to hear the news about shipment , thanks for updating :)

Hello, everyone.

Pardon, I don't really have the free time to visit forums anymore -- but I wanted to swing by and thank y'all for your patience during the waiting period between production runs of Zaku. We had other professional commitments to fulfill, but now I'm happy to announce that orders started shipping this afternoon. This will continue through next week, until we have shipped all pending orders. Keep an eye on your mailbox for there will soon be a surprise inside!

If you haven't ordered yet, and are still on the fence about it, please check out the game's official website (www.zaku-lynx.com) for heaps of information and screenshots, or the recently posted "complete playthrough" video on YouTube (warning: thar be spoilers):



We look forward to hearing your first impressions of and feedback about the game, so please, don't be a stranger! Contact us by e-mail (contact@superfighter.com) and tell us what you think!

Thanks again and have a nice day.
