    I&apos;m so glad everyone is enjoying the project! If you&apos;re interested in making/buying your own version of these, I&apos;m definitely going to make them available in some form!<br><br>If you don&apos;t want to miss news on that then make sure you&apos;re on my new mailing list at <a href="https://abe.today/pages/subscribe">https://abe.today/pages/subscribe</a> (it&apos;s also linked in my bio under &quot;Mailing List&quot;). Please also comment if you&apos;re interested in a kit, a complete drive, just the files, etc. I&apos;m really not sure what&apos;s possible but I&apos;d like to do whatever lets the most people enjoy these :)<br><br>Thanks for watching &lt;3

    Abe achieved something never seen before; actually finishing a project you started 2 years earlier.

    Micro SD cards are cool, but nothing beats the meaty snap of a cartridge. &nbsp;Cool seeing a project stuck in project hell finally see the light of day!

    <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=END_PVp3Eds&amp;t=15">0:15</a> I would like to argue here on the practicality of micro SD cards, considering the fact that if a strong breeze happens at the wrong time, you may have just lost two terabytes of data forever because they&apos;re so small you can never find it in the grass.

    I really wish after DVDs and Blu Rays, we&apos;d moved to SD Cards or something like this as the new form of physical media instead of everything going to streaming. This is just so much more fun and we should all value owning and supporting our media directly.

    microSD cards are also not human-sized, in that they&apos;re too small to handle properly.

    I really like this project, maybe the demand for something like it doesn&apos;t exist on a commercial scale but honestly I feel like maybe it does. I see a trend lately of people trying to live their digital lives more intentionally and cartridges like this sound like it would fit that growing niche well.

    In a perfect world they would make SD, MicroSD and MacroSD, with MacroSD being about the size and shape of a credit card, perfect for albums, movies, and games.

    You&apos;re the reason I took up PCB designing. I was always intimidated by multi-layered pcbs and I didn&apos;t want to take the time to learn it. Keep up the fun projects.

YouTube, with the door locked.

Aegis plays a clean stream instead of YouTube's player, so pre-roll ads, trackers, and fingerprinting never ride along. Drop Shields any time if you want the official player back.
