Finished Rogue64 in a single sitting tonight. I could tell early on that this was going to be a good run as I came out of the first couple of levels maxed up on strength, and the potions that dropped were either health or strength-based. Fun times. #c64 #retrogaming

Heute angekommen.
Ein "älteres" Spiel für die "ältere" Xbox. Ist das schon Retro? 😁

The RetroTINK is now hooked up into the SCART switch along with the capture card on the computer. Switched back over to the JVC TM-H150CG because it's a better CRT than the Sony PVM-2530 and it takes up a bit less space. Still need to arrange the cables a bit, but I think this weekend is gonna be perfect for playing some games.

The final form of the printer cart: the JVC PVM with speakers, a RetroTINK 4K, an SNES, NES, Genesis, and PS1 along with a MiSTer and some nice LED lighting.

Some great old OutRun art
#OutRun #arcade #SEGA #RetroGaming

OutRun art in a manga/chibi kind of style, maybe from promo materials or some other Japanese type thing - a guy driving, a girl in the passenger seat looking back, in a car, under a palm tree with OutRun logo at the top in a speech bubble the girl is saying.

Okay, the setup is solid now. SCART into the `gscart` switch which splits the output. One goes to the Sony PVM-2530, the other output goes to the RetroTINK 4K. I tried to get the colors to match somewhat on the CRT, but it's a fool's errand to be honest. However, once work is over it'll be time to progress more in FF6.

Okay, with all the changes and ill-will towards the old cart: it's time to beat up on some FF6 bad guys!

Hrmm, seems like I need to check a few things out about the PCB as I have somehow lost all of my saves on that cart. However, I also feel like absolute crap which means I'm moving over to the SD2SNES and starting over. I'm thinking about streaming FF6 and just chilling after work because _reasons_.

A picture of me sitting beside the AV cart showing FF6 playing on a flashcart. The background shows a bookshelf full of nerdery and general geekery.

So far, so good. Getting ready to tackle the Phantom Forest in FF6 (about 4.5 hours in) and everything is proceeding smoothly. No issues with SRAM or the EPROM. Also, FF6 is so very, very good...

Time to get back to FF6 after dying in a desert near a castle...and forgetting to save which means it's back to Narshe and a lot of ground to cover again.
