I made my own e-ink labels for the two new Virtual Boy releases! I'm especially proud of my Zero Racers label! It should look like the F-Zero game that it is! Anyways, here's a link to the .bwr files if you have an eink flash cart! drive.google.com/file/d/1VsVr... #retrogaming #virtualboy #art

Today's the day! Playing some newly released official Virtual Boy games from Nintendo on my original Virtual Boy! Dragon Hopper and a new F-Zero! I'm using the kickass e-ink flash cart so I can design my own labels! #retrogaming #nintendo #virtualboy
My newest article for RetroRGB went live this morning! I spent an absolute enormous amount of time troubleshooting this issue, but now I can announce the solution for anyone else who has two Vectrex controllers and the V3 Multicart! retrorgb.com/vectrex-v3-m... #retrogaming #vectrex
Vectrex V3 Multicart Simple Fix for 2-Player Glitch - RetroRGB
Vectrex owners using Sean Kelly’s V3 multicart may occasionally run into an unusual issue when launching some 2-player titles such as Armor Attack or Rip Off - player 2's joystick directions don’t register, even though the face buttons work normally. Fortunately, the solution is both simple and reliable! After launching an affected game from the

Random game Saturday! It's Bushido Blade for PS1 - except I've networked two of my Playstation systems together for multiplayer across multiple TVs! #retrogaming #ps1 #psx
I got a good price on a PSTV and have been having fun hacking the hell out of it! Removing the blacklist so it can play ALL my Vita games, putting Adrenaline on it for everything PSP, and the myriad of homebrew games and community-made ports! And Moonshell! It even supports Xbox Cloud Gaming! #diy
Last thing about the Hori controller for the Gamecubes Gameboy Player - it's SNES controller shaped but with flared wings on the back for better grip which reminds me of LRG's new Rumble controller for SNES! But the Hori one DOESN'T have rumble! Even though GameBoy Player-enhanced GBA games have it!
Another way to use the cool Hori controller for GameCube is, of course, with your Wii! Only a few actual Wii titles support it, like Muramasa, but the entire Virtual Console library does! You can play every SNES game with it! Or Genesis or TurboGrafx 16 game, etc! #retrogaming #nintendo #wii #hori
If you want a random game this Saturday, I don't think anything is more random than my copy of the unreleased StarCraft Ghost on the original Xbox #xbox #starcraft #randomgamesaturday
The cool Hori Gameboy Player controller for the GameCube is also just a GameCube controller! The lack of analog stick makes it suboptimal (or even incompatible) with many 3D games but its fantastic for pretty much anything 2D! Like the original Zelda on the Collector's Edition disk! #nintendo #zelda
For #throwbackthursday I present the time I used a homemade cable to connect two Sega Genesis through controller port 2 so I could network them together and play multiplayer Zero Tolerance across two TVs #sega #diy
Question for my followers! Despite my all-encompassing collection I DO NOT OWN a single Amiibo! As a collector, getting into Amiibos feels like a real can of worms! (and I've found ways to spoof their NFC signals) SO MY QUESTION IS: If I were to have JUST ONE Amiibo -which should it be and why?
Since I have the Hori Super Gameboy Commander controller for my SNES, I figured I'd import their Gameboy Player equivalent! It feels REALLY GOOD to use, and also, in my typical manner I've done some shenanigans with it, so expect me to post more about this guy! #retrogaming #nintendo #gameboy #hori
Random game Saturday: Soul Calibur! For the Sega Dreamcast! Played using the motion controls of the fishing controller! #retrogaming #sega
Building off yesterday's post, here's my custom 3DO! The modified lightbar on the front mimics the Red-Blue-Yellow colours of the 3DO logo! It has an ODE and a custom mini-DIN RGB-out that allows me to get more horizontal video (with a RetroTINK) making it nearly widescreen natively! #retrogaming
For #ThrowbackThuraday here's my heavily customised Sega Game Gear with enhanced screen, HDMI-out, USB-C power supply and 2-player support (for Master System games)! #retrogaming #sega #diy
I didn't realise it until someone pointed it out, but somehow my copy of Breath of the Wild is the UAE version? I don't know how that happened. But it plays fine in my Canadian WiiU #zelda #gamecollector #nintendo #WiiU
I'm late to the game on this one, but this weekend I made some time to play some Zquest games! If you don't know Zquest, think of it like an open-source Mario Maker, but for Zelda! Tons of great community-made games for it! It's really cool! #zelda #opensource #diy #gamedev
Pokemon Mini appreciation post! One of Nintendo's least-discussed platforms! The flash cart for it is called the "Ditto" cart, which is amazingly thematic! 😆 #randomgamesaturday #nintendo #retrogaming #pokemon
Working from home today and in between tasks I'm re-learning how to inject my own DS games into the WiiU Virtual Console so I can play my favourite DS games on my TV! #nintendo #DS #hack #diy #retrogaming
#throwbackthursday to me getting my GameCube to network with my Wii for one of my parties so we could do 8-player Mario Kart! #retrogaming #mariokart #nintendo #hack
I was playing some Vib-Ribbon last night, using my Jet Set Radio CD in the system! I'm a big fan of games that let me put different disks into my system, like Monster Rancher! Long live physical media 😉 #retrogaming #playstation #ps1 #sega
I'm not American, but yesterday I connected two of my PS1 consoles through Serial Link to play linked-up Independence Day on two of my TVs! It's the day the world declared in one voice we will not go quietly into the night! #retrogaming #july4th #ps1
I forgot to include the cartridge label I made for my fake "onlyfans" Game Boy cartridge! #art #selfie #diy #retrogaming #gameboy
I PROMISE IT'S SAFE FOR WORK - someone told me if I did an OnlyFans it would probably be some obscure, weird thing. So I made a proof-of-concept Game Boy version of how I would distribute my own 8-bit, cartridge-based thirst material! 😛 #diy #selfies #retrogaming #gameboy
I played the Win9X version of Star Trek: Borg, and it lacked saves, choices were opaque, and you had limited lives so you'd have to start over if you made too many wrong choices But cut together like this it feels like a missing episode of 90s Trek! Check it out youtu.be/EzvL2XaJUno?... #startrek

For #ThrowbackThursday is the PICO-8 Classic I built! I made custom branding vinyl labels on the controller and console, built and branded a matching keyboard and designed a custom, clean boot-up for the system as well! It can also connect to a CRT for that extra authenticity!
I was playing the original Picross on my Super Famicom and the solution to this Picross puzzle is literally Picross itself. Picrossception. #retrogaming #nintendo #snes #sfc #picross
