#retrogamimg — Public Fediverse posts

I spent most of yesterday modding my Nintendo 3DS and loading new software on it. I forgot how great this little device is. It has been just sitting in a drawer for years now. Turns out there are lots of great games on it that I never got around to and a thriving homebrew scene!

Visiting a vintage #arcade in the #netherlands in #alkmaar called "Vintagame". 1 floor arcade cabs, 1 floor pinball machines and ground floor has a bar, snacks, pool table and Switch2 hooked up to a projector. Everything on freeplay, entry is 15EUR for the arcade and pinball floors. #retrogamimg

Learn how to program an 8-bit computer. It’s the biggest f*ck you to AI bros and their slop; you will learn more about computers than you ever will from gluing frameworks together, and lastly it will come with no responsibility whatsoever.

Stop contributing #JavaScript and #Python knowledge to the slop vendors. Microsoft, Google, Apple et al can’t make money off of 6502 or Z80 code. More Commodore 64 games existing is not going to contribute to murder drones shooting kids.

Is there a CLI tool out there that'll show me the bytes in common across lots of files, and their offsets? I'm doing a bit of binary file format analysis, hoping to contribute some types into shared-mime-info for ZX Spectrum and Commodore emulation disk+tape+cartridge files. Trying to fix up some ".tap" and ".d80" name clashes with More Magic :blobcatspace: 🔄

changed shell and installed ips screen mod. issues? screen is not perfectly aligned, one jumper wire was missing from the kit, "touch sensors" don't work. other than that result was worth it! #wonderswan #retrogamimg

🕹️ From the blog archives: Whilst simplistic by today’s standards, this game started a mobile gaming revolution long before the age of smartphones.

Does anyone remember a #retrogamimg game called "Word Up, Word Down" which contained a special hidden Easter egg game called "Pleb Up, Pleb Down"? Think it might've been an Archimedes game.

My butthole hurt just looking at it. The price of Gameboy Advance handhelds has gone up. #gba #retrogamimg

TBH I'm way more excited about another thing on my phone. I'm a huge fan of the 2001 PC game Stronghold. I've been playing it since it came out and I still play it all the time. Using Winlator I can now play the game on my phone in Dex mode from my lapdock. Its effing awesome. #Android #retrogamimg
