...and it's done! I am quite late to the party, but it was mostly about the fun of soldering something useful and I did not know what to do with the Raspberry Pi anyway. Configuration was a little bit of a pain, but in the end I got it working. #c64 #retrocomputing #pi1541 #RaspberryPi

It's served! #c64 #retrocomputing #pi1541

My favourite cartridge for the #c64, the #SuperSnapshot v5 is getting a lot of love recently. I replaced the EEPROM of one of the clones I built with a 128kB specimen and flashed Adrian Gonzales' SnappyROM. Now I can also use it with the #SD2IEC. I also updated my #KungFuFlash to the most recent firmware version which can also load the SnappyROM now. I heard rumors about the ROM for a few years and I am happy that it is finally available for everybody now. #retrocomputing

Buy the brand they said, they use quality parts they said. I wonder if anybody got a raise for finding the cheapest wheels in the world to put on this suitcase. Fortunately it was impossible to find the same wheels to replace the broken one, so I had to find an alternative which works so much better. #repair don't replace.

Autumn is just around the corner in the northern hemisphere and I just ordered PCBs to build some hardware during the long evenings. I plan to build the following projects:

- https://github.com/tebl/C64-Mega-Switcher
- https://github.com/gmcn42/clumsyMIDI
- https://github.com/cristofercruz/gbp-esp-shield-pcb
- https://github.com/hackup/Pi1541io

I will get more PCBs than I need. Let me know if you want any.

Think global, drink local!

The game is a mix of a Shoote'em Up and a platformer. The first stage is pretty conventional and the story is about a damsel in distress. The real fun starts when the knight learns how to defy gravity after defeating the end boss of stage one (which again looks pretty badass). #Sega #SegaMegaDrive #SegaGenesis

I totally forgot that I backed The Cursed Knight (T.C.K) by Broke Studio on Kickstarter until I received an email last week. The supershot looks pretty badass. #Sega #SegaMegaDrive #SegaGenesis

I have 5 PCBs left for building your own Super Snapshot v5 clone (https://github.com/Kalidomra/SuperClone-5.0). If you are interested, I will mail one to you for free, I only ask for postage. One PCB weights 15g and I am located in Germany. DM me if you are interested. #c64 #commodore64 #retrocomputing

I was away for a few days and when I returned, I found Alice Sisters by #OrionSoft, published by #PixelHeart in my mailbox. I had completely forgotten that I had pre-ordered it in April. It's a puzzle platformer. I am dead tired tonight and only had enough energy to play through level 1, but I had fun so far. I mainly bought it, because it has a 2 player cooperative mode. #Sega #SegaMegaDrive #SegaGenesis #RetroGaming

Done! I felt bad about drilling the holes, but the improved video quality was worth it IMO. #Sega #SegaMegaDrive #SegaGenesis #sVideoMod

This looks better! #Sega #SegaMegaDrive #SegaGenesis #Remute #Technoptimistic

The moment when you realize that s-video out does not work properly because you mixed up some pins since the top of the housing lies on the table upside down. #Sega #SegaMegaDrive #SegaGenesis #GetMoreSleep

Have a nice day!

My personal #Paprium fiasco has ended today. I finally have a console the game works with. The price I played for the game when I preordered it years ago, plus the price of the console is still considerably smaller than what people have played for just the game on eBay. #Sega #SegaMegaDrive #SegaGenesis

To mod or not to mod, that's the question! Thinking about adding S-Video. #Sega #SegaMegaDrive #SegaGenesis

This is "Stumpi", the coolest cat in the neighbourhood. She has no tail and lives alone on the street. She shows no shyness, but also no interest in people. I am convinced that this cat thinks that she owns the neighbourhood. #caturday
