rather too many overpriced number ones flying around at the moment... i'm more than happy to wait for the trade when it's going to cost me less than a single floppy...

recent randoms…

possibly my earliest musical memory...

a deep dive…

welcome to 1992...

that game you'd completely forgotten about, the one that you then half remember, but only just enough to still be unsure as to whether or not it ever actually existed... well i've confirmed that it did, and i'm on the hunt...

found a new retro store this week, which never ends well…

today's random slice of the past...

another trip to the eighties...

using the megadrive bagging exercise as an opportunity to introduce a colour coding system… completely healthy behaviour… ;)

train reading…

more randomness…

cex rescues are a bit like buses…

this morning's musical interlude...

recent randoms…

my first rescue in a while…

Developers sometimes take inspiration from other games. Sometimes they go above and beyond this and make something truly special. This is not one of those times. Watch and learn. youtu.be/KzwA_AgbeDg

just had my memory well and truly jogged..

scanned inlays, the latest in a long line of retro obsessions… not bought in an attempt to trick anyone, no intention of selling the games. i just prefer the japanese box art...

just popped up in my memories...

a meeting of minds with @mariemetal1.bsky.social… much videogame related chat ensued…

more sorting...

deep in nostalgia... again...

recent randoms…

breaking out one of the big hitters...

well that's all of my copies of eletronic sound bagged and boxed... let's just say that i'm trying to focus on the things over which i have some control for a while...

random retro #4371… amiga format coverdisks 1-14…

bought a replacement cover for my copy of shinobi iii. no intention of passing it off as the real thing, just prefer it to the sea of brown that is the classics design… the worry is that to my untrained eye, it looks way too real...

new year, same shtick…

more nostalgia...

this week’s randoms…

One of those channel update thingys for 2026 but done in a Crap Content way...... (or what we call watch the subscription disappear 😂) ♥️ Big hugs x youtube.com/watch?v=IaTt...

54 unhoused and counting... reaching that point where i need to start looking for thrill containment units again...

slightly puzzled by the whole batman ark m special inflated price situation on ebay... i was in forbidden planet this afternoon, large piles of the a cover and assorted variants, all for cover price...

this morning's tune...

Another week done another chart show uploaded showing what kids like us bought in Oct 88 …and i promise you …..two of these games I can’t ever remember seeing ever before youtube.com/watch?v=yVd1...

and when bagpuss goes to sleep…

another cupboard find…

random comics pulled from boxes… once again, the first in a (very) occasional series… ;) punchline: the gotham game (2023) 1-6...

random dvds… the first in a (very) occasional series… ;)

no dc this week and image appear to be delayed. we have some marvel though and last week's delayed dynamite may turn up... it's that time of year when it all gets a bit confusing...

Only a few months late, Bloggo looks at Yuzo Koshiro's mega game : Earthion! But what does he think? No, not Yuzo! Bloggo. What does Bloggo think? Watch and find out! youtu.be/wPiWnLtGQwE

as can probably be guessed from the previous post, the c64 ultimate has been getting a lot of play over xmas, and i'm loving it.... loading all of my games from cassette wherever possible, and there's just something so comforting about the muscle memory of 'shift/run-stop', press play on tape...

just played jail break on the c64 for the very first time... i knew it was bad, but i think it may have the worst collision detection i've witnessed in a game... ever... nice packaging though... :)

more images found on a sega saturn cd...

this xmas i’ve mostly been playing stuff that’s so old, it’s almost even before my time…

almost 42 years to the day…

last week’s randoms, successfully bagged and boarded…

what's left on this week's pull list once i take off the dc...
