Whenever I'm traveling - even if it's for work-obviously I gotta check out whatever the local #retrogaming scene is. Retro Realm in Kelowna was pretty good, and the guy running it seemed nice! #retrocollecting

WE GOT A DOUBLE-ENDER HERE BOIS #retrogaming #retrocollecting #atari

I ran into the Intellivision Voice Module for super cheap yesterday. The store clerk actually asked me what it was! So that was my opportunity to take the ol girl out last night and plug the module in. I sure love the vintage organiser I have for mine! #retrogaming #retrocollecting #intellivision

It sort of looks silly but I also kind of love it! My eReader eXtender arrived from @turfmasta.bsky.social so I can use my eReader on my Analogue Pocket! I even got a whole new high score on @retrodotcards.com leaderboards with it! 😎 Number two in the world, baby! #retrogaming

CLOCK TOWER... on Game Boy Advance?! Half-homebrew, half-port, From @bobschneeder45.bsky.social & @blamerobots.bsky.social Team C.U.T.S. bring you: Clock Tower - Advance - Download NOW archive.org/details/cloc... *Fan-made, non-profit. Not official software.* #クロックタワー #clocktower #horror #homebrew

Thanks to Nintendo Labo, I already have a Virtual Boy compatible cardboard version, but I'm looking forward to getting the new VB system from Nintendo too! Usually R.O.B. uses this one anyhow. #retrogaming #nintendo #retrocollecting

I'm at the airport right now and I just want to say; Thank you, Windows...

I know it's not everyone's favourite entry in the franchise, but my version of Call of Duty 3 included a soundtrack CD, which feels kind of funny to me now.

I also forgot I had this promotional... scarf? For Injustice they gave out at an expo. #retrocollecting

I'm not even sure where this one came from. A Mario keychain with a plastic case for a GameCube memory card. #retrocollecting #nintendo

Looking through some old boxes and check out this Gameboy Advance promotional pen I got from Nintendo back in 2001. Nintendo was handing these out at E3. It lights up blue when it has batteries in it. #retrocollecting #nintendo

So long you annoying drifting joycon sticks! #diy #modding #nintendo

I'm watching old episodes of The Wonderful World of Disney, and like - does Donald know his best friend goes duck hunting...?

Low-effort post today: here's a random corner in one of my storage closets, how many weird old game things can you see? 😅 #retrogaming

Time to play some eReader on my Game Boy Micro! #retrogaming #gameboy #nintendo

User Robavince on Mastodon posted a Genesis Game Genie Code to pit you against a weird child's drawing sprite in Mortal Kombat 2, and I had to try it because it's the weirdest thing I've never heard of for MK2! It does freeze up though CLMT-BE76 to try it yourself #mortalkombat #retrogaming #genesis

Here's a #throwbackthursday to a couple years ago when I first hit 64 followers on the birdsite and commemorates it by making my own mini Super Selena 64 box!

Hey, my next article went up! All about the new eReader games from @retrodotcards.com ! I have been enjoying them, I love any new physical release for old hardware, especially niche stuff and this one is particularly clever! www.retrorgb.com/new-gba-e-re... #retrogaming #gba #nintendo

I received a package from Japan and it included these freebie bonus Pokeyman cards thrown into the packaging! I don't know anything about these cards, but it's still really cool that they tossed these in! #pokemon #nintendo

The Streisand effect? Oh, you mean the Herostratus effect.

Running a Ghosts of Saltmarsh D&D campaign and it lets the DM define where the dungeons below the ruined Tower of Zenopus lead. So this weekend the party discovered this - a giant water elevator that, once repaired, can be used to bring their ship into my flooded Underdark setting of Sunken Veil!

If you're as big of a Virtual Boy fan as me, you might be interested to know my newest RetroRGB article is up! www.retrorgb.com/red-viper-vi... #retrogaming #nintendo #virtualboy #homebrew #emulation #3ds

I'm checking out Test Chamber this week! A portal-inspired first-person puzzler in glorious raycasted 3D on the Virtual Boy! It's super cool to have this enclosed 3D environment on the VB! Plus Red Viper (VB emulator for 3DS) was updated specifically for this title! So cool! #retrogaming #nintendo

I have a mini-collection of Sidewinder stuff that I'm *very* happy I never got rid of!

Getting caught up on the super rad new Game Boy emulator for the Playdate - Crankboy! It's so cool! I love how it's doing the two extra shades and the whole thing runs like silk! (Hit some small bumps getting it installed though) I friggen love my playdate #retrogaming #gameboy #playdate #emulation

Waaaaaay back in like, 2001 I tried my hand at making a webcomic about my friends and our geeky interests. Some of the language DEFINITELY DID NOT AGE WELL, OH MY GOD but if you're bored you can still see the comics sat www.geek-central.org #throwbackthursday #tbt #webcomic #comic

In truth, the port is to connect the 2nd player's pink gun that you could only get directly from Konami. It uses a phone cord which is odd, but it allowed it to connect to either the Genesis or SNES model of the blue Justifier gun controller.

Here's a cool bit of old video game lore! The phone jack in the bottom of Konami's Gun Controller (Genesis) was so you could phone up someone you don't like and just fuckin shoot them. #retrogaming

Ran into one of the Adult Only "games" for 3DO in town. For $800 #3DO #retrocollecting

Not only do @retrodotcards.com new games for the GBA eReader all have achievements you can view using a special (included) achievement eReader card - but also how cool is it that Exo Attack for the eReader has ONLINE LEADERBOARDS in 2025! 🤩 I'm number 11 right now, baby 😎 #retrogames #gba #nintendo

On Friday my new pack of games for the GBA eReader arrived from @retrodotcards.com and I've been playing them a ton since! This is so awesome! What a cool way to do a physical release in 2025!! 🤩 #retrogaming #gameboy #gba #nintendo

This morning I played through Earthrion on my Genesis! If you have it on Steam there are extraction tools to get the ROM and it is EXCELLENT 🤩 Best Shmup I've played in years! Worth considering the Genesis physical release next year! #retrogaming #shmup #sega

Ran into this super neat Zelda Encyclopedia at Chapters! Look at it! #retrogaming #books

I had to take a pic last night when I ran into this absolutely gorgeous PacMan cocktail cab #retrogaming #arcade

I'm glad I've already got this Fantastic Four poster on my wall! Oh wait... #fantasticfour #mcu #movies

Since Mario Paint is back in the zeitgeist thanks to the Switch 2, I decided to boot up my old copy and see what I had saved on it. Sadly it's blank, I'll have to replace the battery in this cart like I did the others 🥲 #nintendo #mariopaint #retrogaming

FUN FACT! Nintendo actually reused this boot up sound! On the GameCube! You just have to speed up the random background whooshes on the bios screen to about 16x in order to hear it! Super cool Easter egg youtu.be/PfghexFnjVc?... #nintendo #gamecube #famicom #fds

I love the screen and the sound you get when you turn on the Famicom Disk System. There's just something really cool about an 8-bit boot screen/bios! 🤩 #famicom #fds #nintendo #retrogaming

Rolling credits on all my train games 🥲 Gonna have to find a new franchise to obsess over now! #retrogaming #playdate #gaming #trains #denshadego

RIKER: Fact or Fiction!?: STORY: Ghosts are real. RIKER: That is a fact.

Decided to give Paprium a try on my Genesis and see what the hype is about! Since the FPGA on the Mega EverDrive Pro can now be mapped to function as the onboard co-processor that shipped in the Paprium cart, which is super cool! Graphics look fantastic! #retrogaming

For #throwbackthursday here's the time I got Link to walk from one TV to the other because of my odd setup! Legend of Zelda: A Link Between TVs #retrogaming #zelda #nintendo

I did some artwork this week of me having an adventure! #art

I imported this copy of Densha de Go for the Gameboy Color from Japan, but no matter where people are from, we're all up to the same things! Check out the saved high score on this cartridge... #retrogaming #gameboy #denshadego #trains

GDemu navigation on my Dreamcast with the Fishing Controller is nearly impossible and the N64 EverDrive can't navigate the menu AT ALL if you have the Densha de Go 64 controller plugged in. This is how I remain assured I'm on the outer fringes of our hobby with all the edge cases I butt up against 😅

Oh man. I am definitely going to Gaming Jail for this ridiculous trick 😆 I'm operating my Playdate using my Google Stadia controller #gaming

Last night I set up my Game Boy Camera to work as a webcam! It was neat, but at like 3 frames a second it wasn't really usable for very long, not even just for the novelty of it 😅 But I did it! #retrogaming #gameboy #diy

Nothing is real. Everything is made up. I'll play Doom64 on a Dreamcast with a fishing controller. I don't even care anymore. #retrogaming #doom #dreamcast #sega

I'm fully set now! Train Controller ✅ Microphone ✅ Rumble Pak to feel the rails ✅ Transfer Pak to unlock Bullet Trains ✅ Official Densha de Go Pocket Watch ✅ All aboard the Selena Train 😎 #retrogaming #nintendo #denshadego #trains

After having the 1.5 version for years, I put the new Smash Remix 2.0 on my N64 and holy crap it's like going from a beta to a full release! It's so clean and professional! I love all the new characters, stages and modes! 🤩 #retrogaming #nintendo
