Algunas tardes cuando llegaba a casa del colegio allá por principios de los 90 me encontraba a mi padre en mi habitación jugando al Grand Prix Simulator 2 en el #Spectrum. Aunque tenía prohibido usar el ordenador entre semana esto solía suponer una excepción y echábamos unas carreritas.

Hoy me he bajado el .tap de este juego y lo he jugado un rato en el #TheSpectrum antes de ponerme demasiado triste para seguir.

Como buen juego de 8 bits era endemoniadamente difícil y los dos primeros circuitos eran casi los únicos que jugábamos así que recuerdo estas pantallas casi píxel a píxel.

Es curioso qué cosas se nos quedan grabadas en la memoria y cuáles olvidamos.

Ooh it's just like Christmas 1982 again - spending Boxing Day playing with the exciting new Sinclair Spectrum I got for Christmas.

Only this time it's a TheSpectrum modern-day clone, it was a present I bought myself, and most important of all I don't have to switch it off every time someone else in the family wants to watch TV!

Microdrive is my latest purchase and was 3D printed by a guy on a ZX Spectrum forum. It even has a USB stick cartridge with case.

I made a thing because I couldn't find a thing that did it. https://github.com/stilvoid/retro-sort

It's for sorting folders of things (such as game files) into folders of a definable size, for use on hardware that can't cope with too many files in a given folder... like #TheSpectrum 😀 #RetroGaming #retrocomputing
