  1. :no_nazi: Cognition Dissemination: No Retro Consoles from War Profiteers – Damage Control Blog

    「 There are fortunately alternatives to indirectly supporting war crimes. Analogue is one of the best retro gaming hardware manufacturers around, for a good example. The Analogue Pocket, the design for which is reminiscent of the Game Boy Pocket, plays Game Boy, Game Boy Color, and Game Boy Advance games, making it better than the Chromatic 」

  2. It feels weird that a MAGA guy like Palmer Luckey is obsessed with recreating Japanese computer hardware.

  3. Modretro seems to be releasing new N64 Games.

    Unfortunately, Luckey is behind the company. I have a real love-hate relationship with Modretro.

  4. POCG reports: ModRetro's M64 FPGA Nintendo 64 console is on sale today for $229, with a $90 Pro controller. It runs an AMD FPGA capable of 4K HDMI output, using a port of Robert Peip's MiSTer N64 core that ModRetro plans to open-source after launch, just like their Chromatic core. #RetroGaming #FPGA #Nintendo64 #ModRetro

  5. Already disgusted to see people advertising Modretro devices while handwaving the fact that the founder is a "defense" contractor and then I saw this today axios.com/local/columbus/2026/
    It's fucking embarrassing to think this connection doesn't matter.

  6. 🤮 Don't buy Palmer Luckey's 'retro N64 style' clone console- if you see one, steer clear. Palmer is a shitty fucking warmongering asshole, and you can read about his shitty warmongering in this very article. Fuck this bullshit.

  7. Would you look at that, Palmer Luckey must be getting bored with producing autonomous killing machines, he's getting into the Retro Gaming market to bring back the fun of his youth.

  8. If you are promoting #ModRetro you need to be aware that it is a product from an active #incel and #fascist #PalmerLuckey looking to further infiltrate #gaming after his sale of #oculus to #facebook

    He is also using ModRetro to promote #anduril his migrant hunting drone company he has proudly bragged gamifies hunting down migrants on the border for the #trump administration.

    Reject this shitty company and product.

  9. « #ModRetro 's recent announcement that it is manufacturing a Chromatic which comes with Anduril Industries branding is, for us, a step too far.
    That people might have an issue with supporting a product that directly benefits an arms dealer is pretty obvious. » timeextension.com/news/2025/12

  10. :blobcattea: Retro creators are finally waking up to the nightmare of allowing techbros to hijack another beloved niche.

    「 You may (or may not) have noticed that we've scaled back our ModRetro coverage in the past month or so (we don't intend to review the M64), but the Anduril-branded Chromatic – a device which is almost ghoulish in celebrating its connection to the arms trade – is the final straw 」

  11. Palmer Luckey's ModRetro just dropped their take on the N64, dubbed the M64! It's battling Analogue 3D for retro console supremacy, promising translucent casings in purple, green, and white.

    No price or release date yet, but you can join the waitlist. Are you dusting off your old cartridge collection, or is modern retro just not the same without blowing into the cart?

  12. Since GameStop seems to be going all-in on them, I would like to once again remind people that ModRetro is a pet project of Palmer Luckey, who is an absolute monster of a person. Just a vile excuse for a human being.

  13. You know what's better and a shit ton less buggy than openFPGA for playing retro Gameboy ROMS.....

    Actual cartridges that play on modern hardware. I know the #ModRetro has a lot of stank on it cause their founder is a crazy person, but a part of me wants to try one out.
