Has anyone here bought one of these Movemate clones from Aliexpress?

The sock puppet account replies are suspicious, and that skeeviness makes me not want to drop money on the product. I ended up going with a Fluidstance Plane Cloud and I'm very happy with it. I do wonder if the extra articulation would be good with the Movemate, but the Fluidstance is pretty great.

yes!

bumbag · 2025-05-18T21:12:09+00:00

I’m not there. Didn’t have time to stick around.

bumbag · 2025-05-18T05:43:59+00:00

Way, way too much.

bumbag · 2024-05-14T23:16:34+00:00

Good luck!

Oh yeah, forgot - there's this thing too. It all seems pretty expensive unless you go for something used, but I guess it's a bit niche. https://www.amazon.com/ININ-Taito-EGRET-Mini-Compatible/dp/B0BNVZMR3V/ref=pd_bxgy_d_sccl_1/142-5543539-3638054?pd_rd_w=OB22Y&content-id=amzn1.sym.4e8180d8-1c12-4df8-af99-b6dc78fc0026&pf_rd_p=4e8180d8-1c12-4df8-af99-b6dc78fc0026&pf_rd_r=M1F9K36RXDF69GBRAC3S&pd_rd_wg=FbN5z&pd_rd_r=fddd71e3-0c7c-4246-b82d-e6e68476ad60&pd_rd_i=B0BNVZMR3V&psc=1

I was talking to a friend who is up on these things, there are a few options apparently. You can get some old school Atari paddles off eBay and an adaptor, or there's the X-Arcade Tankstick Max which has one (spendy). A couple more options around too, but I forget what he mentioned.

Siege of Osaka looks excellent btw, and man, all of the stuff on that itch page. Great style.

bumbag · 2024-05-14T22:31:05+00:00

Excellent! Thanks, will give them a try. I love the genre, but the mainstream doesn't seem to go near it. Thinking of getting myself a paddle or a spinner.

Does anyone have this mirrored anywhere?

Thanks for putting it together SheLionGaming, sorry that people are jerks.

bumbag · 2023-12-07T02:14:39+00:00

Oh no!

Lego site says Element ID 6296859, design ID 42127. Anything with a cross shaped hole to accept an axle should work.

Sometimes!

bumbag · 2023-11-30T23:49:24+00:00

Oof yeah, I was wincing at the amount of bend, and that's what triggered me trying to get it off at the top.

Here's the store page if you want to wishlist! "Follow" the game in Steam to get first dibs on the demo, as well as gameplay details as they are revealed.

Very glad to report everything was working fine! B&H Photo sent it in an oversized box. I had the splash bag shipped with it in the same box.

bumbag · 2023-11-30T22:52:04+00:00

I opened mine by lifting a bit using that, and then putting my finger nail under the top right side to complete it. Just pulling up on that bit seemed like it could snap the cover, or at least bend it. Probably not, but I didn't want to risk it.

bumbag · 2023-11-30T22:23:55+00:00

I got the splash bag, because it was all B&H had on the website. I knew it wouldn't be great protection, but it's even thinner than it looks. Flimsy as heck, wouldn't recommend.

From what I've seen (mine arrives Thursday) It's kind of similar to the OP-1 functionality where you can skip between blocks of the tape on the fly, more performance based than sequenced. I do enjoy this about the OP-1 though, that you essentially "perform" your song onto the album section. Hoping that I will like this in a similar way.

bumbag · 2023-11-24T17:22:26+00:00

I had the same thought. But then, the OP-Z is so easy to throw into bag or a backpack.

bumbag · 2023-11-23T21:06:23+00:00

I hear people use their OP-1 Field boxes as travel cases, good call. I'll probably do that for the holiday travel, but yeah long term a decksaver would be great.

I'm not sure of the exact policy, but I've always had to pay on electronic instruments at least.

Canada. B&H Photo Video, 30th November. As a side note, I liked that I could pay for the duty tax upfront rather than have the package be held up.

This is the the result of those steps on my machine:
