Today's the day. 28 years later... (no, not the zombie apocalypse), I still can't fathom that Zophar's Domain has stood the test of time. Truly unbreakable! While many many other sites are lost to the sands of time, The Domain lives on. Thank you everyone, and emulation forever!
The QJ - SG MegaStar SV-433 is one of the weirder SEGA Genesis / Mega Drive controllers I own. They also made a similar one for the NES, the SV-333. The “C” button is ridiculously clicky on these with a deep plunge depth. It may prove a good fit for one-button arcade games tho🤔
The 1979 Milton Bradley Buck Rogers boardgame has one of the most aesthetically pleasing game boards of the era.
Where does the artistry stop and the functionality begin? With these superb sticks from Pixel Memories (@Clive_Frog_2_0) there’s no need to choose. Super solid arcade feels. When I’m finished slinging beers and blastin’ rocks in space, I’ll be displaying them on the shelf as art
.@MondoNews and @AttackPeter have added a bit of a glow-up to my shelf. 😍

Incredible work, guys! Although I’ve played Narc many times in the past, playing this just now it’s finally dawned on me that a good portion of Narc’s DNA harkens back to Jarvis’ earlier masterpiece, Defender.
💡🤔
It is finally here! Thanks a lot to @_atrac17 for helping a lot on this release. I made some very aggressive changes this morning, and it paid off. Hope everyone enjoys NARC - the first ever ultra violent video game in history, and I am glad we are bringing it to you.

It’s taken a while, but I’ve finally scored a nice copy of VIDEO issue #1. Published in late 1977 this magazine would be the first consumer market magazine to robustly highlight home videogames & consoles as a regular feature. And they kicked it all off with a kickass cover too.
Hell yeah
Halloween a 16 bit platformer is coming October 18th, 2024 for consoles and pc 🎃

Romhackers, please, for the love of everything, PLEASE create your patches based off of the NO-INTRO set!
There is nothing worse than having to track down a specific GoodSet rom just to play your game.
The NO-INTRO set is THE de-facto set. It is very easy to find on IA.
Thanks

My open source Virtual Boy emulator for Vision Pro is also coming to iPhone and iPad! Now available on TestFlight.
Download and try it out. When I'm confident (mainly with the onscreen controller), it will be releasing on the App Store on all platforms.
