“Clones can think creatively. You will find that they are immensely superior to droids. We modified their genetic structure to make them less independent than the original host.” “Who was the original host?” “A bounty hunter..” Trantor: The Last Stormtrooper (1987) #ZXSpectrum #StarWarsEpisode2

Ok, obviously I'm a little slow but I just bought the August issue of Compute!'s Gazette. The return of an old rag from way back then. Not just for the Commodore, there are articles on Tandy and Atari along with old rag style articles and examples in BASIC and 6502 Assembly I'm impressed!

The thing that I dislike most about capacitors is that they are such lazybones.

TIL. I hate desoldering sockets.

It worked, but Video drivers are not working. Let's see if I can sort it.

Midnight on the Firing Line... Digging into an old Win 3.1 Babylon 5 Entertainment Pack of sounds, wallpapers, and video clips. It's an immensely special show to me, the first sci-fi series I followed religiously. Even more so now since mine and Kit's first walkthrough together years ago.

Galaga: Destination Earth (2000) #PS1 #PlayStation

Saw this on Reddit today. Yeah, they kept that promise.

For over 40 years I've NEVER noticed that my 1541 drive isn't a 1541 drive .. it's a 154I drive. Mind blown. 🤯 I feel like the original Commodore Inc. pranked me.

Where it all started. Ultima I www.youtube.com/watch?v=121U...

Spectrum Next #Delphian progress: so clipped quad and tri polygons are now fully working.😎 I can probably optimise the code a bit further... Best thing is: not a single divide anywhere. All done with multiplies ('cos Spectrum Next has a handy 8 cycle MUL instruction).🥰 Next step: 3D line draw.

Happy 40th to the Commodore Amiga!🎇 We're thrilled to see Starglider 2 named one of the 20 best Amiga games of all time by @metrouk.bsky.social. An open-ended adventure set in a full solar system, it was the spiritual predecessor to our SNES game Star Fox. 🦊 👉 metro.co.uk/2025/07/23/1...

Black Panther (1987) #Arcade #RetroGaming

I noticed a price tag on this Apple IIc box: December 18, 1987, $949.00 IMHO, that is pricey for a computer that came out in 1984! This was just for the computer, no monitor or mouse.

A post covering the ARMSID, a replacement chip in the Commodore 64. Michele Tiberi Kaio created a musical instrument. Amazing! I wonder if there's a left-handed version. www.facebook.com/photo?fbid=1...

Looks like it has been around for a while but I purchased Zeta Wing by Sarah Avory .. I'm amazed at what she was able to do on a C64, great scrolling, game play, action and sound that doesn't feel clunky. I was smashing that button like a 14 year old at an arcade!! www.youtube.com/watch?v=L1mg...

Adventure 3: Haunted Mansion (PET, 1980) (Source.)

I have something new to play with ... I mean new OLD 😁 A 1982 C64 motherboard. Look at those capacitors! Too cool. This is the first gold (copper?) shield I've come across .. often it is just paper. Already notice something funky ... besides that the main ICs have been "plundered".

What's a video game you bought based only on the box art? J.R.R. Tolkien's War in Middle Earth (1989)

Coincidentally to Spooky Day, I'd been working on an area in my game where I thought it would be appropriate to have a mist/fog effect and a tip from the roguelikedev discord lead me write animation code that used Perlin noise. I quite like how turned out #screenshotsaturday #roguelikedev

Looking like a SUPER ant with only 4 legs, he was actually "Zool, Ninja of the Nth Dimension" -- a fun jump-n-run first out on the Amiga. My son would ditch his Nintendo for an opportunity to play this!

AMIGA FORMAT TRIBUTE ISSUE! Issue 40 For a one-off celebratory issue, Amiga Addict is getting the old Amiga Format gang back together again, picking up where they left off in May 2000, 25 years ago! #amiga #retrogaming #retrocomputing www.addict.media

The world of famiclones beckons with this Polish commercial from the mid-90s. The Pegasus was king of the consoles there, lasting well into the 2000s as a popular option (my partner had one right until picking up a PSP in the late 00s) in a myriad of forms including PS1-shaped ones. #VideoBytes

I had to unwind with a nice game of Galaga on the Commodore 64.

The way that Carthage, an obscure Psygnosis strategy game for Amiga from 1990, renders its landscape a bit a time is very soothing to watch happen in real-time.

FrameThrower for the A500 is now available. it's a device that passes through the video signals from Denise to the PiStorm (via the Pi's camera port) so that both native and RTG video is output from a single HDMI port.. #amiga #pistorm #retrocomputing programatory.archi-tech.com.pl/en_US/p/Fram...

Well this is confusing! commodore.inc or www.commodore.net While I have bought the C64 Ultimate and eagerly await its arrival, I didn't know about the Chicken Lips tussle! 👀
