NanoPeb works just fine. Add a FinalGrom to the collection and you will have pretty much everything you would need with minimal expense. 

[Classic99: running a game?]

The easiest way to load programs is with RXB.   Load up RXB in classic99.   Press option 3 i think is Editor/Assembler.  Press "D" for directory, and then the disk drive number: 0, 1, 2...ect.    RXB will read the disk directory, scroll down to the program you want to load.  Press "spacebar" if it is a basic, or extended basic program.   OR Press "Enter" if it is a ea/5 program.    It will work 99.9999% of the time.

My 32k "In the console" F18 equipped CF7+ Raspberry Pi 400 Mickey Mouse time keeping work and play station. It looks like they were meant to be together.  lol.  A quick press of a button on the TV remote and I get full access to the AtariAge forums. Ain't technology grand!  Haha..it works brilliantly. 

[Classic99 Updates]

I stumbled upon Classic99 many years ago when I was surfing the web..(surfing the web was a saying back then) and because of that I found a new love and appreciation for the computer and thanks to you it is still going strong. Thank You Tursi for all that you do for us.  I am thankful.  You rock.

I simply HAD to share this video with you guys!  Yes, it's an all Korean Girl band, but that's not why I'm sharing it.  This is a new band, and their first video, but the playing and music style will remind of the Classic Rock tunes many of us have been listening to for decades.  Now me personally, listening to foreign music is not much different from the domestic stuff, because I usually cannot understand the lyrics anyway... but if you want to turn on captions, go for it.  I do have a couple of words of advice when viewing this video...  1) View it FULL SCREEN and 2) Crank it up!

 

 

Excellent.

[Extended BASIC G.E.M.]

I did it some time ago:

To update to the most recent release, use that RPK, unzip it, check the entries in layout.xml concerning the files gromimage and romimage (could be another file name), and pack the (G)ROM dumps together with that layout.xml into a new extended_basic_28_gem.rpk. If your packing program does not allow using the rpk suffix, use zip and rename to rpk after that.

 

Edit: Here is the RPK. Mind that I don't always watch this thread so that I may miss one or another new release.

Thank you sir!   I tried to do all that other stuff....got confused and decided to have a beer and ask y'all for help..Thanks @mizapf, you are awesome!

 

[Extended BASIC G.E.M.]

Can someone put together a .rpk of this for MAME...please?   I tried, and failed miserably..lol.  

[RXB - Rich Extended Basic]

I think I found a bug. I press 3 for EA> D for directory> scroll down to the Extended Basic Program I want to load> Hit Spacebar>  and get a memory full error.  I have tried it in MAME, Classic99 and JS99er.   Unless I am doing something wrong...but it has always worked in RXB2015...

Question for those that already have units in hand: If you felt so compelled, using the Maxi could you load up an old word processor and save a file to the USB?

Yes.  I have had no problems saving or loading files to a usb stick. Swapping disks is very easy.

[The Raspberry Pi and Retropie discussion thread]

Thank you sir. I will give it a try.  

 

[The Raspberry Pi and Retropie discussion thread]

Hello, I am new to the RPi and Retropie and pretty much anything Pi related so I figured I would ask you folks my hopefully simple questions. 

 

I have a new RPi 400. I successfully installed Retropie on a 128 gig SD card and installed a few games, SNES and N64 titles.  They work well and everything is running smoothly. 

 

 My question is, in my googling and searching I ran across a "prebuilt" retropie sd card for a Rpi 4 on Amazon.  Are those cards "plug and play"?  Just plug in the card and retropie and everything just works?   Does anyone have any experiance with these prebuilt sd cards? I figure I would have to configure my controller and stuff, I am using a PS4 controller now,  but I guess I am asking is there other setup stuff required?  If I plug the card into my Pi 400 will it just work? Choose a console, choose a game and enjoy?    Is it really that simple?  

 

 Thank you in advance for any insight or advise.  This is all new to me.

I am posting with mine right now. I am amazed at this little thing. 1.8GHz ARM quad core. What?!

I woke it up without a hitch. It has everything I could imagine needing including Libre Office. I can't get over how complete it is.

I will explore Linux with it for my own education. At the current price it is hard to beat.

 

I will have to figure out how to GForth on here. 

Yeah, I love this little 400.  Pretty sweet.   I installed GForth the other day after watching this guy....

Thanks, so does that mean it doesn't work if they are not in the carts folder? I usually generate my rpk files in the project folders they belong to.

I have found that as long as you configure the path to the folder where the .rpk is, within the Ooeygui configuration tab, it will work.

Does OoeyGUI v4.0 work with rpk files? (It doesn't seem to work for me.)

Yes. I put RXB2015 .rpk in my carts folder and it works fine. I also put XBGEM rpk in the carts folder and that works fine also.

It's here, and it's beautiful! I transfered everything from my Backbit cartridge over to a thumb drive and everything I have tried just works.  This is AWESOME!  Swapping disks is super easy, and so far everything just works.  I hope you guys get your 64 soon. It was worth the wait. 

[OoeyGUI MAME and Raspberrypi 400]

@mizapf Thank you for the advise.  It runs wonderfully on my Rpi 400 with the video set to bgfx.  It's perfect. I am not going to make anymore changes.
