Hello,

I've been getting into collecting these wonderful old electronic games. I read in another forum that you will touch on reviewing the games in your book. This would be especially useful information.

How is everything going with it? Will you have a digital version available before the print version?

Thanks Smile

As in there will be no digital version AT ALL.
I'm more and more into SLOW living. That means paper it will be.
If big books don't fit in Tokyo lifestyle, I can consider a SMALL one Wink.
Work will continue after summer holidays as my study has finished last month and I quit my job for a day so now I only work 3 Smile .

For anyone who can't wait for Blanka's book to come out Surprised
I'm selling my (spare copy of) the excellent handheld/tabletop book ELECTRONIC PLASTICS (Gestalten Verlag) from 2001.
This book is awesome. It's crazy expensive on Amazon. I cannot find it on ebay right now.

If anyone is interested, make me an offer, before I put it up for sale at the bay. I can ship worldwide.
Soon, I'll be selling some table tops too.

Little update: I am really disapointed in Facebook, got locked out once again, no way to contact them, so I move completely to youtube for posts, and I will give some links here now and then.
Life has been changing a lot: finished a study, kids take lot of time and I switch jobs after summer, but the good thing is I will work in computer education soon, and that will also give room to take things further. As soon as the schools close for summer holiday, I will do some updates.
Sorry for the inconvenience of shutting down the FB channel, hope you can all find the way to YT.

Is this still happening? I can't find anything except a two-page preview and "expected December 2020", which I'm guessing did not happen.
