This 17 hour playlist is always on while I work, or am outside in the pool. Sure, I mix it up a bit with Megadeth ...

I bit the bullet and spent the 5 bucks to get this game. I really enjoy it. I love shooters so I was eager to use my x-arcade tankstick, but sadly one of the controls requires aiming with a mouse or an analogue stick. So I used the X-Box controller instead and quickly got into the flow of ...

I am watching the first episode of High Score on Netflix. The creator of Space Invaders shows how the aliens are actually sea creatures! Very interesting.

James shows his latest design: NES case for a Raspberry Pi.

I was browsing through some old photos and saw these. I don't think I shared them before as they were a little fuzzy. I am pretty picky.

One of 2 parts to a Wii stand. This was printed on my 3D printer. Very cool watching it come into existence.

I know this is a video game site, and we all know what recently happened involving a former community member. I don't want to give that any more attention.We have all suffered losses in our lives. Loss of a loved one, loss of a friend. Close family members. Sudden and tragic, or from a prolonged ...

My latest Raspberry Pi powered RecalBox. 40+ systems emulated plus screen art, bezels, intro videos, etc.

Here is is next to a previous version, and a real cartridge for size comparison. The smaller one is running RetroPi and has been configured to output to CRT.


This one has ...

This is actually a really catch tune! Hats off to the performers.

The system won't be ready for prime time until 15th of April 2021 sadly. I am still very interested. This does not look like vapourware to me. Lets see who comes out first. Atari VCS or Amico. I look forward to reliving my youth, fighting over which system was better. Intellivision!!! ...

My favorite part of the King of Kong is Steve Weibe's drum solo. Here he does one an a regular size kit.

Another highly entertaining adaptation of the King of Kong. These ladies really do a good job. The audience is in stitches.

What I find so interesting about the arcade world is the communities that have sprung up in support of ancient machines and games.Some of us grew up next to an arcade, some only heard about them from the old timers. But now they have made a comeback and people outside of the arcade world are contributing ...

Interjecting some much needed humor on Triple Planets.

Over the weekend I had a breakthrough in my quest to get 240p or 480p out of a raspberry pi to a CRT.

There are 4 ways to get video from a Raspberry Pi. HDMI, Composite, using a header, or dircectly soldering to some video out posts. I tried the HDMI route but kept failing.

I ...

Just wanted to give a quick update. I managed to get my Raspberry Pi to output 240p, so emulated console games look fantastic on a CRT.I'll post all the details later tonight. Right now I am out on a rescue run, picking up a whole whack of Atari paddles.

Since my internment at Triple Planets Re-education camp, I have come to appreciate the finer things in life. Like Donkey Kong Watch games, Donkey Kong 64 rap battles, and this wonderful work of modern art: Arcade Fire: Redemption of Billy Mitchell*Note: My stance has not changed regarding Billy ...

Tune in to this week's latest episode of Antisocial. Datagod discusses his adventures with a high school drama queen that likes to violate copyright laws. I mean, we all do of course. Have you EVER paid for sheet music? Come on. And every time you hum Happy Birthday some little old ...

Going through some photos from my old phone, and I saw these. Decided to share. This was at Dave and Busters in Myrtle Beach.Look! I found Brandon playing Fast and furious!

Four way was crazy!

Not video game related, but definitely retro! I love this series, been following it for years. I have not watched all the episodes yet, sort of savoring them minute by minute. Fan made Star Trek at its finest. Take a look at Scotty! That is the original Scotty's real life son! How ...
