  1. Ah, the mighty "Dark Castle" trilogy! 🎮 Because nothing says cutting-edge #gaming like reliving the glory days of monochrome graphics and pixelated peril. Who needs modern consoles when you can journey back to a time when your biggest challenge was avoiding the flying eyeballs of Doom™? 🏰👾 #NostalgiaIsPainful

  2. Classic #retrogaming is a deep rabbithole. I'm at #MISTerFPGA level and it's getting serious.

    Multi-player (4+ players) on any platform < N64 is now possible, and I'm combing through the archives looking for interesting multiplayer gaming experiences.

    I have FIFA (MD), Beetle Adventure Racing (N64), Dungeon Explorer (PCE), and Smash Tennis (SNES) to try out as well as the more common (but great) experiences like Mario Kart and Bomberman.

    ** Any suggestions? **

    I'm in the process of setting up Saturn (4P) for the what's regarded as the perfect game of Bomberman.

  5. I know it's a self-fulfilling prophecy but being a retro gaming nerd and having access to everything turns reading retro magazines into a multi-media experience.

    I'm reading the Speccy article in the Retro Gamer 2025 Annual and am checking out the games featured.

    Like the Interactive Game Retrospectives from Digital Eclipse, this is an enhanced way to learn the history of gaming.

    Some of the games mentioned that I'm keen to have a look at: Knight Lore, Turbo Esprit, I Of The Mask, Light Force

  6. I'm learning to play Konami's 1986 horizontal shooter, Salamander (AKA Life Force in the US). It's a spin-off from 1985's Gradius/Nemesis and is hard as coffin nails.

    Most games of this era were brutal. I was also a lot younger and faster but having my own cabinet offsets my ageing reflexes and I love the solid and lag-free controls.

    It was last month's Ten Pence Arcade podcast's featured game and, as is often the case, rewards repeat consistent play.
