Gigawatts of retro power: Get immersed in a Rave virtual arcade, Learn the daily grind of an RBMK reactor operator, And check Retro Games Ltd.'s unusual video FAQ for followers of THEA1200. Plus everything from the IBM System/360 to Jaguar and PlayStation. youtu.be/eNj8a-8oOko
THEA1200 sparks THEDiscussion of THEFilesystem challenges! Retro Games Ltd. put out a helpful Q&A video recently. But does it raise more questions than it answers? Chris and Jason grapple with decades-old Fast File System limitations and more this Saturday!
New episode of 260 Weeks Ago in Retro out now for our supporters, a look back at Episode 42 of the show from June 2021! patreon.com/thisweekinretr…
Sony's pushed the physical media doomsday clock closer to midnight! Also: the life and career of Psion founder and innovator David Potter, the many hazards of the modern online auction scene, a short-lived 3DO reboot, new uses for old RAM, and much more. youtu.be/7vcEHNCiemw
With Sony apparently accelerating the death of physical game media, what will the future of throwback-media nostalgia look like? Jason has one idea, involving a (hypothetical) very successful second date with (checks notes) Marguerite. Subscribe now, don't miss TWiR 276 Saturday!
Is the pace of operating system upgrades increasing? Or are we just too old to conform? (You already know the answer.) Sega and Amiga features plus more operating system discourse, and more, when This Week in Retro 275 arrives Saturday!
"What now lies ahead in the ULTIMA saga can only be pure speculation!" Lord British reclaims Ultima? Chris differentiates between reality and sims? New IDEs for C64 Ultimate, ST, Amiga, Mac, and DOS uncork new apps and games? + C= phone takes and more! youtu.be/zEiSTyUyLaI
A look at the planned C64 Ultimate Game Engine (an IDE for the new FPGA Commodore 64) prompts the questions: will users accept C64 Ultimate-only titles? And how's that been going for the Spectrum Next (assuming that yours has shipped, that is)? All this and more Saturday!
Lost C64 Goodness Revealed!! All this and more.... This Week in Retro Podcast Episode Guide, including community question of the week, and all other episodes: tinyurl.com/twir-pdf-guide @WeekRetro @RavageXK @jpcwrites @RetCollective
World-first reveal! Tony Smales (ex-Melbourne House) gives a tour of never-released pinball Arcade Wizzard for Commodore 64! Plus: definitive overview of the Sega Dreamcast, and home PC shopping in 1998. youtu.be/ThWzhOzD8BI and check @fgasking for more info on Tony's disks!
To accommodate Melbourne (House) guest Tony Smales and the international crew, one of us got up extra-early. May have impacted his patience with a condescending BBC computer buying guide. All this, an exclusive game reveal after decades in an attic, and more crabbiness Saturday!
This week's guest quietly built @vcfmidwest into the world's largest annual retro computing event. It's the end for the revived Checkmate Amiga case, surprising differences in teletext around the world, and a look at the "overrated?" Amiga 500 Batman Pack. youtu.be/ZPsifCcF-H4
Jason Timmons of @vcfmidwest and Chicago Classic Computing show-and-tell: a rare Quazon Quik-Link 300 home teletext terminal and last-minute product engineering. (Atari 400 catches a stray for good measure as well!) Just a sample of Saturday's latest news for the oldest tech!
Welcoming back guest Iain Lee after too long, we revisit Nintendo's too-brief run of mini consoles, explore the surprises in Microsoft NetMeeting's 30th anniversary, and find out what made an octogenarian game dev settle unfinished business. Episode 271! youtu.be/GSRXr9LRq9Q
A space traveler wrestles with the need for human companionship... and LOSES! Join us as we discuss the pastoral sci-fi story Founding Father by Clifford D. Simak - new, FREE show!
Just what does returning guest Iain Lee think we've done to deserve this? Enjoy our modern radio show which you can also watch like television with a real-life media professional when This Week in Retro 271 arrives Saturday! thisweekinretro.com
Exclusive hardware news caps a retro kit roundup: A MiSTer handheld from Heber + PicoCPC, PicoIDE, and PicoGUS updates. Then we look closer at reimagined Atic Atac and Wolfenstein 3D, and explore wonderful, novel operating systems in the Virtual OS Museum. youtu.be/gf2piu17r0I
Dave's on new hardware watch this week. (We told you he's fine.) Also, cat. See you Saturday!
Fancy Pants Folding Arcade!! All this and more.... This Week in Retro Podcast Episode Guide, including community question of the week, and all other episodes: tinyurl.com/twir-pdf-guide @WeekRetro @RavageXK @jpcwrites @RetCollective
Tech hidden in plain sight! The brand-new Swap Arcade and the Minty Cyberdeck palmtop. Plus Australia's MicroBee, the retro-tech Eurovision entry of LOOK MUM NO COMPUTER, host milestones, 3D conversions of classic games, new POKEY hope for Atari and more! youtu.be/VupmbLBg3iY
