@8bitrocket.bsky.social I listened to your new Atari 2600 Action Pack podcast at work this morning at work. Your excitement in telling made me smile. Thanks.

This is what the government did with 120K+ Japanese Americans in 1942. I know. I was there in those camps.

I’ve been listening to an interesting podcast, “Pack One Bag”. It’s about a Jewish family in Mussolini’s fascist Italy, trying to decide what to do when fascism comes to your country, stay and fight, or flee. lemonadamedia.com/show/pack-on...

Two years ago, @mozzwald and I demonstrated two Atari Lynx's connected via the Internet, playing Rampart with UDP tunneling ComLynx, thanks to prototype FujiNet devices. Am still surprised it worked. www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2jK...

FujiNet is a WiFi Network Adapter for many #retrocomputing systems, including #atari8bit. It can allow users to play games against a shared scoreboard. Article here: fujinet.online/2025/01/09/h...

Hi. I run a YouTube channel. youtube.com/tschak909 It distills my four decades of #retrocomputing and #retrogaming knowledge into long-form videos with extensive chapter indexes. My focus is on accuracy, and depth; especially because this knowledge is being lost to time.

Want to learn even more about the history of Kingdom, Hammurabi, and The Sumerian Game, back @andreacontato.bsky.social Andrea Contato's Kickstarter www.kickstarter.com/projects/110...

Not familiar with Atari's "Kingdom", or the game it was ported from, "Hammurabi", or the game that was based on, "The Sumerian Game", read @katewillaert.bsky.social Kate Willaert's article "The Sumerian Game: The Most Important Video Game You've Never Heard Of". www.acriticalhit.com/sumerian-gam...

The follow up to the German #Kaiser for the #Atari 8-bit was Kaiser II. This is a fully machine language version of #Kingdom / #Hammurabi. A lot of work went into this one. I haven't translated it to English, so I can't fully play it yet. It is also not up at atarimania.com. It soon will be.

Playing "Kaiser", a pretty version of "Hammurabi" or "Kingdom" on the Atari 8-bit. I translated most of the German to English here github.com/billlange196.... This version is multi-player and mostly uses joystick input rather than keyboard input.
