    It seems some units have been shipped out to a select few. I keep up with the thread over at Marshall's site and was surprised that there were no updates pertaining to this. Does anyone know of any re-sellers? Maybe we could organize an Assembler group buy?

    I'm hopefully getting one on loan to review and make a install tutorial..
    Hour long install tuts are too long most of the time

    I emailed Marshallh, because I want to order a few, so I can install my own and then sell the others. He said he is setting up orders currently.

    According to @badassconsoles on twitter, he was able to do a second order of these, so hopefully that means orders will soon be open for everyone..

    'llo here
    marshallh wanted to sell UHDMI only to "official installer" with their own serial numbers, so you can exactly know who did the mod ; selling them in bulk of minimum 3 (if i remember well).

    That is correct. He said the minimum order is 3.

    Is badassconsoles the only one that has been selling these? In that case, I think it is a test to see if everything is alright. That is also what I think badassconsoles mentioned in one of his install videos.

    Pricey and $164 each so just shy of $500!! Too steep for my blood.

    The $164 is for the board and installation. I still don't know how much just the board is.

    I have watched the operation on youtube , nice to find the owner of this Green Jade !

    Sorry for my english and\or typo errors brother , i originally speak another language but i try my best

    N64 UltraHDMI is specifically the reason why i registered myself here (and very happy to have done it !)
    I search someone who can explain his feelings about this add-on , if he satisfied with it etc
    I try to understand if a superHDMI modded N64 Motherboard could have a perfect compatibility with the "overclock mod" like this : http://micro-64.com/features/oc64.shtml

    Any conflicts between theses two mods , could they be beneficial to each other ?

    ....did a SuperHDMI modded N64 would need to have a overclock mod in order to be able to play the game a little bit faster & more fluide
    or the superHDMI add-on is enough to perform this task alone ?

    Please explain me with the most technical details you can , i need to know :)

    They are $127 a piece. I should have mine tomorrow! I will probably post some pics of the install.
