The day is here. After an eleventh-hour delay late last year due to a critical battery issue, Panic has begun shipping its long-awaited Playdate portable. In an email it sent out on Monday, the company said that Group One customers will see their handheld shipped out today and in the coming weeks. Oh! A new Playdate Update video is here! It recaps the great developer things we've released this year, like Pulp and the Playdate SDK. Please enjoy it. https://t.co/LXkuR8Isnk …today. pic.twitter.com/T58YihE6f3
The company said they would ramp up their shipping volume every day to make sure all of their systems were working correctly.
If you decide to order the handheld today, you will be in for a long wait.
