I will, just listening to the Bally Astrocast right now. Super-busy Monday for podcast when I thought everyone took the summer off. Dangit, now I wish I provided feedback about Tempest. I remember reading the criticism about it in a Consumer guide about the game, saying it was a "Quarter eater, even for the best", but it's still a favorite.

I'm on a computer! Anyone else out there on a computer?

Heard on Ten Pence: "Ferg, the godfather of the game by game podcast.."

You are reading this sentence.

And in another note, the latest iTunes cleaned up their act for podcasts + playlists. I can now do the "New Fresh Podcasts" playlist. No more depending on my phone or tablet.

A new podcast has arrived! The 16/32 podcast - Wade's Atari ST podcast is out. Wade, can you post the URL?

I like the audio compliation that brought the clip show flashback of "this week in robotron". Oddly enough, there was a prototype of Robotron for the TI-99/4A *this month in TI-99/4A* Nice childish B&B giggle soundbyte at just the right time.

So I have a 2600 PCB that perished. It doesn't work any more. I've had decent luck de-soldering most of the surface mount components on it, but how do I get the RF shielded box on the bottom right off? Desoldering the tabs on it seems to have no effect. Yes, I know destroying a 2600 is sacrilege, but this one was 100% broken, and I intend to use it for something else.

Sold out for pre orders? How am I supposed to buy one, and then scalp it for many times more on Craigslist come Christmas?

Does Yahoo have anything?

Ran into an interesting problem using MAME on Linux(Ubuntu). I hit Alt to jump in Bionic Commando, and it switches the task back to the desktop. Now I have to find a way to shut that off. Alt is not a good window management key, MAME or no MAME.

I'm betting if Atari released a console right now, it wouldn't have HDMI,it would have a coaxial hook-up that outputs to HDTV channel3, for the lulz.

I tried MAME 175 last night. What were they thinking for the interface for adding a folder? I tried to add a ROM folder(for my arcade games), and had to do it 3 times. It made no sense with the way they have you do it. Adding a folder from a simple Win32 dialog made sense, and it worked(would have been nice to see the full path). But with the way they do it now, it's a huge step back. Also, how do you do a double filter to show(not filter OUT, but show) available & working ROMs?

I think the hall of fame winner was on RetroGaming Roundup with Jerri Ellisworth. You could barely hear her, but you could hear SoCalMike breathing. Kinda funny.

Just sent off my notes for Toy Tomb.

I'm so glad I didn't buy the fall to your death simulator, aka Tron Evolution
-
Don't be hard on yourself. Forget what the haters say. And yes, I know I'm one of the biggest podcast curmudgeons on this thread. I listen to all your casts and enjoy them. The Toy Tomb is fun since these were all toys that were before my childhood timeframe. You give love to the lesser-known consoles.

So I guess finally Nintendo made their own xxx-in-1 famiclone, while unknown companies have been making unofficial knockoffs(HyperJoy,etc) for years. Heh.

Listening to Arcade Outsiders(many podcasts are on a summer break now). One voice mail left to them got hardcore into discussing aspects about the main topic of the show: arcade games. They noted that. After that voicemail, the discussion veered away from arcade games into wrestling & other non-arcade game topics. They should talk more about arcade games.

I have a feeling it's going to blow away any of the Flashbacks. Kudos for using an HDMI port. Sure, no SD card, but better than nothing.

Coleco Chameleon .... hardware speculations?
S1500 replied to phoenixdownita's topic in Modern Console Discussion
Looks like Nintendo beat the Coleco Chamelon to the punch. But I heard it only just plays NES games. -
Pokemon Go is to social media is Final fantasy is to retro gaming podcasts. Except multiply it by a factor of a million.
