@KonixSlipstream @iFixRetro LCD mods are definitely something I will be visiting. Hell, I even have a couple of LCD panels which will make a perfect Atari Stacy upgrade (colour Stacy!) sitting in my stock pile ready for development! 😆

@TOaks76 @TheRetroHQ Did someone say colour themes? 😎 Added that today too. You can use the default theme or swap for a grey or even alien green theme. 👾👽😎

That is a thing of beauty! As someone who'd love to be able to draw and animate, this is voodoo magic. 😱

Has to be Double Dragon, right? I played that game more than any other I can think of in my youth. Co-op multiplayer is the best-thing-ever!
What was the best video game released in the 1980's? 🤔

While I'm in Atari 7800 land, do people also want an RGB mod board? I've looked, and it's certainly possible, although not simple. It would require a 2 chip re-socket with mod boards beneath to fit.

Metrocross! I loved that gamers the ST, it ran pretty much entirely at 50hz with nice scrolling. Oddly, I loved it so much, I have the arcade PCB somewhere too... 😆

@reidrac Not sure what compiler / language you are using, but I ran into memory issues on a 68000 based project recently and enabled function level linking (rather than object) and saved a few kb. If you're 100% assembler, this is not so useful for you... 😆

Heads up to all Snes2Jag customers. @clackattack01 has reported that the HDMI Snes Pound cable works with the @atari #jaguar when using my Snes2jag adapter. Here are some media shots showing the Jag using an HDMI input on a Samsung 8500. #retrogaming #retrogamer #gaemrsunite

@JudgeDrokk Piracy and the games industry are as inseparable and Ant and Dec. Oddly though, a lot of hackers went on to become game developers. Although less likely the designers of things like the console cartridge emulators... Very cool bits of history.

What could be better than working with Albert Yarusso, William Thorup, and Marcus Schmerl on a project?

Working with coding legend Jeff Minter and all above, that's what!

3 of Llamasoft's best, all on one trippy cart - available in the AtariAge store!

Our second game for @Pikointeractive , Switchblade, is also available in their store.

We have two more titles being released by them coming very soon! Watch this page and theirs for more news!
Oh yeah. 8k and 16k VIC20 ROM Cart PCB's are only a quid each. Priced to clear, coz they've been replaced with a combi PCB.

This game looks great, and I can't fault the attention to detail with an additional micro on the PCB just to provide better quality audio! Fantastic stuff for a greatly underrated console.
Rikki & Vikki's packaging is finally put together, so let's open it up and see what's inside.

The view from the office today could be classed as "a bit snowy". 😀 If only I didn't have a really crap cold still, I'd head out with the snowboard. 🙄

@N_X_G Finding and fixing the hardware issues has been rather agonising, but now it's working and quite stable it's great to be getting more and more games running!
