Zez Retro and the Cathode Ray Podcast on YouTube. Taking about analog video, CRTs and Hard Off Hunting in Japan.
The French Master System with native RGB looking niiiiice on this consumer Trinitron. Getting some cheese and baguettes and having myself an authentic experience tonight
@robsmithdev.bsky.social I see the waiting list for mister floppy is 0. Does this mean you have some in stock or the waiting time will be very long 😊
Found a Saturn Twin Stick on Vinted for 20€. For that price it’s easier than hauling home from Japan
Bought 70 Amiga disks for 10 bucks. Seller tested a few and found errors but surely they can’t all be bad In other news, I need to stop buying Amiga disks
The DSPico has rekindled my love for the DS. I’ve had this beautiful matte blue DSi for some years but never had a Flashcard which works in it. This machine is my perfect portable size. Nice screens, not too big and the texture of the matte surface feels great.
Ketsui DS On an emulator With a full sized arcade stick You can’t change my mind
I find it fascinating that Famiclones were so prevalent in Poland that today when trying to sell a genuine Famicom, every seller labels it “like Pegasus”
i bought a lot of Amiga games for 10€ for Fate of Atlantis not realizing it was “Komplett in Deutsch” but there were a few nuggets in here like Sim City. oh they threw in a equal stack of PC floppies which i found upon arrival. Still Indy in German is a score
I'd love one of these but the pencil neck European bureaucrats passed a law and Rob can't ship to the EU. Not his fault! This is our socialist version of Trump tariffs :/
It’s finally here! #MiSTer Floppy brings real floppy disks, #SCP and #IPF support to the #Minimig FPGA core! 💾 youtu.be/kN8TCz7Z0n8
Marketplace dude in Poland has 26 G3s and need to sell because he got divorced.
So after a long ass time i finally reworked my first update pack i ever released, the one for Windows 98. I learned so much since i made that thing and i finally had the time and patience to bring it up to my current standards. As a bonus 98 FE is supported now too. archive.org/details/win4...

My family is moving house and I elected to put the majority of my retro gaming collection into my container. Usually I squirrel and Tetris things into every hidey-hole. Sobering and somewhat overwhelming to see it all stacked up in one place.
Another big box for the collection! Windows 98 in reasonable condition, includes the floppy and the brown paper envelope. This box design hits the nostalgia hard
Event had an AI photobooth where you could enter your “dream”. I decided to test it with a NSFW prompt. Well played to the AI to censoring my input while still subtly alluding to it in the background
Poly bags are about the only Lego I have time to build these days. For 4,50€ totally worth it.
I am having trouble selling my copies of Psikyo Shooting Library Vol 1&2 on switch and I think that’s kind of a good thing? Historically shmups are notorious for being in short supply and driving up prices Right now you can buy this collect easily online and it’s even 15 bucks on the eShop.
Eastern European gamers, what’s up with Pegasus/Dendy/local famiclones being so expensive on the second hand market? To my mind these are all junky, is nostalgia alone making people put these prices? I don’t just see this on Vinted, I see Dendy going locally for dumb prices too
Every month Google charges me 1c and I don’t know why. I think some translation API I worked on years ago…. I’ve been through the cloud billing admin and it’s throughly confusing so I live with it
Selling my Etokki Omni Arcade stick with Korean lever and Sanwa buttons. PC / PS4 / PS3. Located in Estonia, shipping is about 30€ to EU. Asking 180€, dm for more info
