Soon, I am going to program level 2. Level 1 (Paprika Plains - a tribute to the Joni Mitchell song) is finished. Level 2 will be falling down a hole, much like the second half of the Sunken Ghost Ship level of Super Mario World...or level 2 in the celery game. I think it will be easier to program, but I'll have to make a whole new loop for it because...

I made this over 1k, working for about literally 12 hours or so. Most of the work was done yesterday, when I started at about 6am and went until 2pm with no breaks except to go to the bathroom. Odyssey2 coding is VERY HARD AND FRUSTRATING. Is it worth it? You be the judge, I posted the result right here.
How do I play the friggin' game?! I'm going along and suddenly there's this hairpin curve. How do I take it WITHOUT my car going out of control and spinning out? I tried braking, I tried slowing down, I tried everything but all I do is spin out. It's driving me nuts! The other computer racers seem to take it just fine which isn't...
Why is it that nobody will give me any feedback on P Shooter? I'm posting it here in case someone reading this has an O2EM emulator on their computer, but apparently nobody really cares about the game. And I worked hard on it too. I added Voice samples to it yesterday, and still no response. Maybe if I add an attract mode. I tried once but failed to get...
What have I been doing since my last blog entry? Nothing much. I did however get/order a couple games. My AtariAge package finally came, and the cheapie $3 thing I got, when put on my Odyssey2, created tons of static, so I just continued using the old switchbox I had, which produces a clear picture! Anyway, an idea I had just hit me. MIDIs. I...
Well, right now it's way more than 50 what with all the homebrew efforts lately. I said I would reveal my next Odyssey2 project on my fourth anniversary of joining videopac.nl forums. It just so happens that it's tomorrow. I'm glad it wasn't a couple days ago because I'd be SOL because the game hasn't been working like...
I was saddened that Nintendo Power was going to end. I had subscribed from 1993-2009 or so. Then I was happy because it's not going to end. God damnit, I'm not going to let the magazine die. I'll make my OWN Nintendo Power. So starting Holiday 2012, I will make a bi-monthly magazine devoted to Nintendo, which means I'll have to buy the Wii U...
Can someone explain something to me? Why do big evil corporations go after YouTube users who post TV shows or commercials? I could understand if the person who uploaded it gained money for it, but I DON'T. I don't really like profiting off someone else's work. Yet, some ruthless bastards who have way too much time on their hands and work for NBC...
Just updated my 3DS reviews page (http://www.atari2600land.com/3ds/) with a review of NSMB2. Not a very long review as I haven't played very much of it. I played through world 1 without losing one life, but I doubt it will stay that way for very long, and I started level 2 with 21 lives (you start the game...
Well, it's the second week in a row I was able to finish the Sunday crossword. Not the New York Times one, but another one that appears in my local paper. And this one was funny looking and not the usual type of shape I would expect from it. It had a big S in black squares in the center, and the letter S didn't appear in any of the words. In...
