I just want to take a minute to sing the praises of @retro-access.com. Not only are their cables of the best quality, but the customer service is next-level. I was having issues with one of my cables (that, embarrassingly turned out to be user error on my part) and they were so patient and helpful.

32 years ago today, my favorite video game was released. Still love playing it to this day. Fun fact, this is my original Sega Genesis that my family received for Christmas 1993.

My daughter asked me to play a spooky game so she can get in the spirit. We tried Resident Evil 1 (Gamecube) but she couldn't deal with tank controls. We played PT next and she liked it. Now we're just about done with Resident Evil VII which is the first RE game I've ever played all the way through.

My day has finally come. Youngest asked me to play Pokémon Emerald on GBA. So I gave him my GBA SP. After playing for a while, he asked if there was any way to play it on the TV. Now he is playing it on a Gamecube with GBA player via RGB SCART to the RetroTink 4K using the Hori Digital controller.

Waited 2 hours in a line at Target with my kids to take them to the Pokémon event. None of the people in front of us had any kids. All we got for it was the joy of watching the people right in front of us buy the last cards and receive the goody bag for the day. I thought I disliked scalpers before

It's been interesting watching PlayStation self-immolate this year. I swear every move they have made this year would look no different if they were deliberately trying to alienate their fan base and allow a competitor to rise up.

I don’t know who needs to hear this but if you get Honey Bunches of Oats cereal and freeze dried blueberries, you can recreate Blueberry Morning cereal circa early 2000s.

@kytor.com hi Kytor, congratulations on launching the RetroTap. If I made an order today but forgot to add something, is there any way to add on another item to my order without doing a completely separate order and incurring additional shipping charges? Thanks!

My youngest has been playing Pokopia lately and he showed me the cartridge and asked why that cart has a little key icon on it but none of my other cartridges have it. I had to give him "the talk" about Game Key Cards. They grow up so fast and you want to preserve their innocence as long as possible

Watch Microsoft dominate Sony next generation by leaning into the benefits of digital (namely playing your purchases on a multitude of devices) instead of making a poop sandwich for customers and telling them to eat it and be grateful like Sony seems to be doing (I still don't like all-digital).
