Retro Tech Orders

I've sent Patreon messages to everyone who has requested a signed copy of Retro Tech.

I'll send them out as and when payments come in.

Thank you!

Signed Copies of Retro Tech

Hello!

I currently have a limited number of Retro Tech books.

As my awesome Patrons, I'm looking at sending out signed copies to you, on a first come, first served basis.

As I found out ...

Domesday Project

I've been meaning to do this video for a number of years, mainly because I found the whole BBC Domesday Project so utterly fascinating in the 80s.

But the thing which really stunned me, was the abil...

Thank you!

Hey everyone.

I just wanted to take a moment to thank each and every one of you for the continued support you give me.

I wouldn't be anywhere near the position I'm in today if it wasn't for al...

Sabrina The Teenage Witch

Well.

It had to be done.

I had to review Sabrina the Teenage Witch Brat Attack.

Because.

Just because.

How the Xbox Scared Us

Happy Halloween. Although shouldn't that be Horrendous Halloween?

In any case. ENJOY!

This is old  news, but there doesn't seem to be a decent video about it, and so it felt pe...

Gobble or be Gobbled

Back to some nice vintage game technology. This little beauty is from 1983, and comes with the incredible tagline of "Gobble or be Gobbled".

I actually picked this up from Play Expo London for £30,...

Pacman Quarter Arcade

Numskull sent one of their new quarter sized arcade cabinets for me to peruse, because, marketing.

So I thought I'd have a look, and give my honest feedback. I mean, it is pretty cool after all.&nbs...

Premiere Test

I thought I'd test out Youtube's "PREMIERE" feature. See how it works. I think the idea is we get to all watch it together with live chat..... I guess that will be nice and cosy?

It also means, that...

Atari Falcon Voiceovers

Remember I asked if anyone wanted to contribute voice-overs to the Atari Falcon video? Well, the response was enthusiastic. But it's now time to begin putting things into place.

SO. I suggest to mak...

Discord Link

I've heard some people are having troubles getting on Discord again.

If so, here's a link that should never expire.

TV Boy

I remember seeing this console in 90s catalogues, all the damn time.

Every time I saw it, I wondered, just what is that? Why is it there? Why does it have so many games, and why is it so cheap?

Zzap64 Annual 2019

Evening all.

Today, I had a peek at the new Zzap64 Annual.

If you don't want to see any glimpses of the cover, don't watch past 5 minutes 30 seconds.

1337D00M

I'll get a video out this week if it KILLS ME.

This one is about a version of Doom rendered using ASCII.

Excellent.

New Mega Drive Games

New games for old... New games for old.

I thought I'd explore some new Mega Drive games and how they fit into our gaming landscape. Do they invoke the same nostalgic feelings as games we remember, o...

Quickshot SVI-2000 Robot Arm

Hello there friends.

A new video awaits. This time featuring the wonderful world of robotics. The SpectraVideo Quickshot SVI-2000 Robot Arm to be precise.

It also features Octav1us, as we try ...

Digital Tape Decks

Very short early access, as I'm running behind again.

But here's a video about Digital Tape Decks, otherwise known as Tapuinos, TZXDuinos and the like.

I hope you enjoy. Have a good weekend! :...

Commodore 64 + WiFi

Evening all.

Time for a video about WiFi. Specifically Commodore 64 WiFi.

What started out as an exploration of a C64 WiFi device turned into more of a Bulletin Board festival. But these thing...

New Studio Tour

It's down to you fine people, that I'm even able to afford somewhere to conduct all my Nostalgia Nerd activities. Otherwise, I'd still be crammed into my bedroom, trying to carefully stack computers o...

A Unwinding Rewind to Play Expo London

I went to Play Expo London.

I had fun. 

I even met some of you fine people.

Here's a relaxing look back at that.

Two Point Hospital Review

The true spiritual successor to Theme Hospital is here, and I've spent the last few days playing it.

The questions are;

1. How good is it?

2. How does it compare to Theme Hospital?

Sonic Chaos Re-imagined

Another video?! You crazy bastard I hear you cry.

Well, I'm getting back to a 2 per week schedule (Tuesdays and Fridays going forward), so these make up the 2 videos for this week.

Next week's...

Organism (C64)

A new Alien game has arrived for the Commodore 64, and I just so happened to order the deluxe disk edition.

So, I guess it's time to see how it fares.

Sonic Mania Plus

Evening folks,

I realise I'm a little late with this one. But what the hell; I review software from 30 years ago. A month is neither here nor there.

Here's my take on Sonic Mania Plus.

Unboxing Donations!

Hello friends!

I'm back! Which hopefully you approve of.

I thought we could delve into some unopened post, which has been loitering for the past few months - just to ease us back into a natura...

Voice overs?

Quick query.

Does anyone wish to record a voice over for the upcoming "Atari Falcon Story"?

There are a few quotes which I need recording, and rather than roping the usual suspects into it, I ...

Moving from Xbox to Playstation

This video is just this minute freshly rendered.

Therefore, there is a chance it may be altered before going "live", but I wanted to get something out tonight for you fine fellows.

Essentially...

DOS Executables

I've been busy with "Digitiser the Show" the past week, so I'm hugely behind on the video front.

So in a bid to get back up to speed, here is a Byte Size video where I discuss MS-DOS executables. 2018-07-09 21:23:42 +0000 UTC View Post

Discord

I've had reports (as I slowly filter through messages) that Discord hasn't been working. 

So please find a new link, which should never expire.

I've downloaded the desktop app now, so wil...
