Fans who have eagerly awaited updates on the Ultimate 64 Elite-II board have great news coming their way. Gideon’s Logic recently announced that the first production batch of 1000 units is complete. Out of these, 864 units have passed quality checks and are now on their way to Gideon.
Shipping is scheduled to begin at the end of April. Customers who pre-ordered should check their inboxes for an update email, which includes an important sequence number indicating their place in the shipping queue. Gideon expects to dispatch approximately 100 to 200 boards each week, meaning delivery could span several weeks.
All existing orders have been updated, addressing any placeholder prices previously listed at €1. Orders now correctly display the final pricing, along with updated shipping options for 2025. Pre-order customers are encouraged to review their order details and confirm their shipping addresses. If any outstanding balance exists, it can easily be paid through the website, which automatically calculates amounts due after prior payments.
Additionally, Gideon clarified inquiries about order extras like badges. Each U64E-II board from this batch includes two black badges, ensuring compatibility with both the C64-C and classic Breadbin case designs.
