Stone Age Gamer has just opened pre-orders on the Atari Jaguar ROM cart from RetroHQ called the GameDrive. The price is $180 plus shipping and should ship around late March:

UPDATE: Retro Gamer Stuff also has pre-orders open!: https://retrogamerstuff.com/collections/gamedrive/products/jaguar-gamedrive?ref=9qd6Y
I previously reviewed the GameDrive back when it was called by its original name and it performed really well. After a marketing issue with the name, James from RetroHQ decided to take a step back and approach the sales a different way. There were quite a few delays that happened during this process (mostly a result of everything going on in the world), but now it’s back for sale through Stone Age Gamer!
James has also teased support for Jaguar CD games via a firmware update. There’s no timeline on when that will launch, but it will be a free update for all GameDrives, including the originals sold under the previous name. As always, I’d like to take a moment to reflect on how thankful we should be when incredibly time-consuming updates are provided, even long after a product has launched.
If you’d like to see the JagCD support in action, check out ctrl alt rees’ video below! I’ll also soon have a livestream that shows some of these rare and notorious games in action!
