I've decided that I'm going ahead with this anyway. if I needed to learn how to solder in order to make it, then now would be the time. It looks like I need to learn also a fair bit about electronics, also, including how to read the map thingy. I just have one more question. How would I test my propeller game? Would I test it on a real Microvision...

The Colecovision can only display 4 single color sprites in a row. One thing I'm happy to know how to do sprite flickering trick. I have a function that push all the sprites to coordinate 207. Not 208, since it doesn't push all off the screen. It just single the VDP to stop drawing sprites. Forget that, I turn all the sprites on. No harm doin...

Sometimes that irritating popup has a link that will let you close it, but most of the time it's not there. If you're sick of that thing popping up almost every time you go to watch a video, all you need is the Firefox add-on Adblock Plus and the filter below. If you don't already have Adblock Plus, add it to Firefox, then add this custom fi...

So I decided to purchase a modded Atari 7800 from Best Electronics and I thought I'd do an unboxing of the package. I'd never dealt with Best before (though I'd heard good things from other members here at Atari Age) so I was unsure of what I was getting myself into. Part of the reason I want to do this unboxing is to show exactly what I re...
I became aware of Walk of the Earth after this video showed up on my 3DS in the 3D Video app.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHvl6z56zGc Soon after I found their clever cover of Goyte's Somebody That I Used to Know where all 5 members of the group play on the same guitar at the same time. I subscribed to them on YouTube after seeing it.http://www.yo...

Time to code for extended and unreasonable durations!10:00pm 'till now:Getting bogged down trying to figure out the smartest way to block the player from leaving the 5x5 screen overworld. Hopefully by the end of the next hour I can s...
I've just ordered the Andrew Jones designed Pioneer 5.1 speaker package to go with the Yamaha RX-V573 receiver / amplifier I just bought.Last week I visited a hifi dealer to do a receiver listening test. I concluded there were minor differences between the various (similar price & quality) receivers, but not significant compared to the expected d...

During spring break I managed to pick up a Sega Genesis and a Sonic game to go along with it. Unfortunately, I don't know about too many good Genesis games I could pick up. This got me thinking about the other consoles in my collection that I am also severely lacking games for. I was wondering if you, the AtariAge community, have any good games in min...
