I’m offering a $100 bounty to anyone who has and is willing to sell issue #14 (June 1997) of the UK magazine “PlayStation Power”, in very good condition. There is one issue on eBay but it is in poor condish. Reposts appreciated!

Paid BlueArk $4.20 to import my tweets so I can say I still stand behind this statement

Bluesky seems to try and push Stardew Valley to me. I bought it at launch and never played it once 😬

Kids getting into retro gaming, retro gaming YouTube channels, and retro gaming device peddlers these days have it easy thanks to the work SmokeMonster did.

Spotted this Sony-made, HP-sold 20" CAD display on a local auction site. Single input signal at 1280x1024@60Hz so not very useful but pretty cool regardless. From 1990.

I typically jump on any wwg video at launch but saved this one for later and watched it in full just last night. What an amazing production. I didn't know half of this stuff and I like to think that I know stuff.

I procured an xbox and decided to become an xbox gamer. What good games are there for xbox aside from Crimson Skies and Outrun 2?

I am giving this away. It does PAL/NTSC and has SCART and accessible factory menu for image controls so RGB shift is a non issue. 20” Thomson tube you find in many arcade cabs of the size. If you know someone in Netherlands who would pick it up from Eindhoven let them know!

Finished watching Billy Corgan's Adventures in Carnyland and it was great. Now waiting for @thebryanidol to appear and sell me the next show he is on.

Whoops I moved from one country to another and forgot to update one account payment details and its 2fa ➡️ lost access to my hosting ➡️ my website expired and vanished 😂 sorry to the thousands of people who kept visiting the PVM or MIDI guides every month for some reason 🐝

If you’re on a budget and need magnetically shielded speakers for your CRT, Bose SoundDock 1&2 are pretty good for the $10-$30 they go for on eBay. As a bonus they can charge your iPod too!

I moved to the Netherlands and haven't seen a single CD-i. Not even in the Philips museum. What the hell.

I was reading the manual for Abit Digidice, a small PC from mid-2000's. They don't make "deluxe" editions deluxe like they used to that's for sure!

I got my Turrican fomo edition from @RealStrictlyLTD after waiting for almost two years and having to chase down the shipment since they forgot to write half my address on the box. They still seem to have like a thousand copies left, if you'd like one. Turrican games are good.

Got some cards! These are basically an entire PC stuffed on a PCI card to use on a Mac. Reply Corp marketing must have loved DOS since the Windows 95 compatibility is only mentioned in a small print as the last bullet point on the sticker.

I don't get why people clamor for restarting CRT manufacturing. How about we use the ones already made first, and save both money and the environment? Here's a few that I've picked up, mended and given away the past 3 years. Only one person has complained about the quality.

Anyone know what is the story behind this CPU? It seems to be a regular 2.8V Pentium 233MMX but in a package I've only seen some Tillamook parts in.

Saying that the 3DO library is bad because the games got remakes on newer platforms is like saying that the original Star Wars trilogy is bad because the "Special Editions" exist.

You all know this exists right?

Tried two component to VGA transcorers with GameCube. The no-name aliexpress one makes for a brighter image than the era accurate VD-Z3 but both seem to work just fine.

Would N64 still be the best console ever made if it didn't have the best controller ever made?

Every time I see an "old game x or old game y, you can only pick one" tweet I feel happy because I can in fact pick both. Being an adult is awesome.

Spotted in front of a restaurant. Clearly restored and fitted with a new tube. I really want one now 📺

@Roll_7 to @Eurogamer about OlliOlli World character editor: "We thought it would be cool if you can make you, whoever you are." Not kidding, then.

Repurposed a thin client for some retro games. Can't get the ESS Solo-1 to change IRQ from 10 though. Oh well. No X-Wing then.
