This week's Retro Gaming News Roundup is now live! Check it out if you'd like to be kept in the loop of everything going on in the retro gaming scene:

@TOaks76 @chris_jh @3DPRINTUK Proper printed cardboard boxes are always on my mind as well...

Today is very much a Bloodhound Gang day. You and me baby ain't nothing but mammals...

@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.

@dogeymon If there's enough demand, I'll make a flash cart for anything....

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!

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...

Holy crap, that is awesome! Now, could I make one...

@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

I suspect this opcode is not used as no-one can spell it...

Not enough people watch this in my opinion. Go watch it more!

@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.

Only 100 remaining!

These folk do great work, check them out!

@appleinsider Get a life, stop using your phone so much, and take in the real world? A slow phone works a treat in this instance, and saves you a grand. Think how much real stuff you could do for a grand?

Adding a new help screen to the @TheRetroHQ #AtariLynx SD Cart menu loader #RetroConsoles #RetroGames #WPUGamers

Pfft, and people say this like its a surprise! It's a music making machine, baby. It still has the lowest latency MIDI... in the world!

@Karol09631170 @AshEvans81 I'm starting to up production of the NGP cart now (with some external help!) so I should be getting through the pre-orders a lot quicker now. The plan is production and sales of carts should be reasonably constant -- there are 45 ready to go out currently I believe.

I just took apart my NGPC slim -- lovely bit of engineering! There's plenty of room in there for the Sony backlit screen, the module is a bit smaller than the NGPC standard. The screen area is about 4mm smaller h&v. Labelled test points on the PCB for the LCD signals too!

Absolutely gorgeous re-use of old tech!

I made good progress on the next batch of GEN2Jag and Snes2Jag. Now to wire them up.

Been working on a new menu loader for the @TheRetroHQ #AtariLynx SD Cartridge. Nothing too revolutionary yet but I’m getting the basics working #RetroGaming #RetroConsoles #WPUGamers

Cinemaware's classic "Defender of the Crown" brought to the Atari Jaguar fully licensed. Limited Edition copies still available in the AtariAge store. Grab them while you can!

We had a fantastic time working with some of the other Jagware teams to produce this release.

/salute you all, and hope to work with you again at some point in the future!

Retro game streaming with modern features like leaderboards and challenges. I prefer my retro to be tangible and in my hands, but for the more casual retro gamer, this looks like a nice service. Nice job @stevecottam & Crew.

I don't listen to Iron Maiden that often -- but it always put a smile on my face! Volume 11. Old school.

Wow, that's stunning!

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.

The first Atari Jaguar release, Custodian, from @Pikointeractive is still available in their store.

I just remembered I pre-ordered this. Hurrah for me! Looks awesome.

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!
