Our Retro Retreat group is now open on #Matrix!

It's a community all about revisiting the magic of retro gaming, or discovering it for the first time. Come hang out and help us test things before we start our monthly game playthroughs in March.

(You're more than welcome to join even if you don't plan on doing monthly playthroughs)

Today I heard about Altirra, a free Windows emulator of 8-bit Atari computers. In the latest version it includes an accessibility mode, turned on from the configuration dialog under the system menu. After you do the emulated screen can be reviewed just like a modern command prompt (IE with NVBDA's review commands.) It aalso supports emulating a lot of peripherals and you can have authentic floppy drive sounds and I'm a total sucker for those. It's really cool to see another vintage #retro computer platform become accessible like this. #a11y #accessibility virtualdub.org/altirra.html



Please boost for reach: There's an open issue on Github about adding scripting support to Retroarch. This would enable scripts like the Pokemon Access mod to be ran on Retroarch, hopefully allowing blind people to actually play the game while mobile. I tried it out and am already making a team in Pokemon Emerald, and in the woods in the first few areas of the game! If anyone is good with adding Lua to things, or if anyone is good at modding games and wants to enhance the Pokemon Access scripts, I'd really appreciate you looking into this.

My brain decided to bring up this memory for no reason today. Cereal box records. Back in the day, kid cereals would add cardboard records on the back of their boxes. You could cut them out and play them on any normal record player. The grooves were made with thin plastic and songs were pretty short.

Sound was horrible. But fun.

🕘 December 2009: Maybe you were upgrading your computer to the new Windows 7, or checking out Ubuntu 9.10. Perhaps you were pouring all your free time into Valve’s ridiculously fun survival shooter Left 4 Dead 2. And maybe, just maybe, you were eagerly anticipating installing Thunderbird 3.0…

Step back into the Thunderbird Time Machine as Jason looks at what made this such a landmark release!

She's been making videos for approaching 15 years now, the universe knows it should've happened a decade ago. #Retro technology, including #retrocomputer s, #vintage AV equipment, #lighting, and all manner of other neat devices from yester year. Go check her channel out: I've been watching since I was a kid, and my followers know all too well how geeky I turned out. :P

If you want to hear an Ikea power standing desk struggle, put one of these things on it.

Well, turns out #blender was being used back in 90s. Or maybe it's some kind of a time glitch...

Gotta make some cool graphics with this old #retro #CRT TV screen soon. 📺


- Mamo, czy możemy mieć Commodore 64 w domu?
- Mamy Commodore 64 w domu, cichaj i podepnij dżojstik do drugiego portu, połamiemy go na Karatece.

Gry łączą pokolenia. Bawią i uczą uniwersalnie, bez względu na to, skąd jesteśmy i w co wierzymy. Jednak medium doskonałe — łączące obraz, ruch, muzykę, dźwięk, treść i interakcję — miało też swoje skromne początki. Serce rośnie za każdym razem, gdy myślę o tym, że to, co minęło, nie przepadło!

Raspberry Pi, jak i Steam Deck to przykłady urządzeń, na których jesteśmy dziś w stanie upchnąć i schować do plecaka całe biblioteki tytułów ze sprzętów naszej młodości. Dla osoby bardzo sentymentalnej (jaką jestem), prezerwacja dzieł powstałych w tamtych czasach to rzecz doprawdy wspaniała ❤️

Dajcie znać od jakiego systemu i/lub gry zaczęliście tę niekończącą się opowieść 💾

There is a raffle to win a #c256foenix machine: vcf.emwhite.org/winpb/ . If you don't know about the Foenix computers, they are a new line of computers inspired by #retro computers, chock full of retro sound chips (real and FPGA), based on real 65816 and 68K CPUs, designed and produced by Stefany Allaire. Unlike some other #neoretro computer projects, this one isn't vaporware. I actually have an early model, so I can promise you they are real :). c256foenix.com/
