Yea man, apparently this will look at least as good as an HDMI modded and upscaled N64, but probably better.

I think I remember reading that it will play Japanese carts also, so I (think) it does!
What's great about it, is that it does BOTH! It uses bluetooth controllers like the 8bitdo N64 controller, and uses original N64 controllers with the 4 ports!
Yea man! I really REALLY want this thing to turn out great!
You're correct, it's VERY hard. But it might future proof it long enough for MY lifespan at least lol. (I hope)
My HOPE here, is that this becomes my standard for N64 moving forward. There will always be a place for my OG and other N64s on a CRT, but CRTs do die eventually. N64 emulation is not 100%, it's notoriously finnicky, but if this thing does its job then I'm set.
IT'S REAL! They FINALLY showed the Analogue 3D running actual N64 carts and I gotta say, it looks like they pulled it off! Nailing N64 CRT image on modern TV is why this thing is such a big deal to N64 enthusiasts like myself who want to future proof as CRTs won't last forever (sadly). I'm ready!
Iron Pinky!
I got these amazing prints from an artist at Dragon Con and I can't wait to frame them and put them up in the game loft!
He was super nice!

Today marks the 10 year anniversary of Metal Gear Solid V The Phantom Pain. A very polarizing entry in the MG series but over the years I’ve thought back on it and there’s a lot to love in this title. #MetalGearSolid #phantompain
Nah I like to count September so the spookies last twice as long 😎💀
September is officially the start of the Halloween season. I don't make the rules, but if I did I'd still make it official. BYE SUMMER! 🎃👻

He deleted his account after it happened.
What happened with Mark Laskey has me upset, so I'll just say this. I can't tell y'all what to do, but I ENCOURAGE you to just BE NICE. We all have struggles, pain, annoyances. We're human. But don't take that out on others. You don't know what anyone might be going through. Please be nice.
All that matters is that you enjoy it! Awesome 👍
I've also got one single copy in stock if any of you want to torture yourselves? ghettogamer.net/product/supe...
I'm very upset about this. Mark is a sweet person and whoever gave bullied him about his favorite games needs to really reflect on themselves... Does anyone know a way to contact Mark outside of here?
Random Game from My Collection: Took a mental health day from work. So gives me a little more time to talk bout this game. This is my original copy I brought when it came out. I remember skipping out a frat event to play it all weekend. If ya haven’t played or heard of this game ya are doing a
Here's all the different PlayStation logo designs that SONY considered before deciding on the one we all know and love today.
Loved this game, and I miss this franchise.
Inspired by what @retroblast.bsky.social is doing, I’m going to be posting 100 of my favorite video games of all time. One a day, at random times, for the next 100 days. In no particular order. 9️⃣2️⃣
Great dude, for real!
Oh HELL yes Dave! 😆

I fulfilled a Very Important Order today for your friend and mine, @retroblast.bsky.social Gettin' a little bit of everything there, huh? Maybe I'll add Game Boy next.
Incredibly happy to hear that, man. 💜
Yea, it's leaps and bounds the best one.
It definitely stands out because it looks so different from the others. Seems like they were initially set on different colors too!

As a fully grown adult I'm still scared of that eel
I think its time @square-enix-games.com did the right thing No i will not be taking any questions but i will be giving answers #justiceforBenjamin
I haven't played AW2 yet, but it's on my backlog!
Omg the EARS. He's adorable!
SAME.
Everyone fits in somewhere and there are a lot of somewheres here! Don't be too hard on yourself, just remember you're as worthwhile as anyone!
Congratulations!
I got you, sounds good.
Also agreed. If you were laid off, unemployment is easier to get and will at least help.
I completely get it man. I really do. The market is rough, but it's doable. I look at resumes daily and have been recruiting for like 15 years. I'm happy to help with your resume to make it more visible and I have some tips for job searching if you need.
FOR REAL why are they so delicious?
For me, when that happened in the past I couldn't afford to wait so I was out immediately looking. If you have some time to invest in searching at a slower pace and can be okay financially, yes do that. If not, then it's harder to wait in all honesty.
Bro I'm on some pomegranate juice and it's so good.
I hate people who do this, hope your brother has better experiences moving forward.
This looks really cool! Have you played, Blossom Tales?
I didn't know that, but that's a pretty cool detail!
Life imitates art!
Oh man! That's hilarious. 🤣
That sounds exciting! I'm sure you'll get some awesome stuff!
If there's a Fire Emblem game that deserves a remake, Genealogy is the one.
I've been begging for an inFamous 2 remake for years now
Easily Parasite Eve 🖤🖤🖤
My MAN!
Drakengard 3 / Drag-on Dragoon 3 Let platinum make that shit
KOOPA TROOPA!
illbleed is a GEM, I love this game.
I want a re-release or remake of illbleed. I don’t think a remake would be able to capture the insane energy of the original though. Every time I try to explain this game it doesn’t do it justice.
This was the version I grew up with tbh because I watched Captain N religiously lol
Which video game do you think is MOST deserving of a remake or just flat-out needs one? Let's say it'll be the last remake ever produced, so make it count!
I just love Donkey Kong Bananza so much. It gets me emotional sometimes with the friendship between DK and Pauline 🥹
How about just "meat"
I didn't make it, it's just a random meme, but I think it's hilarious so had to share.
Will do! And basically I have a different co-host on for each episode to discuss one retro game that's special to them/us.
Appreciate the call out, could be fun to have him on!
Would you be interested in being an upcoming guest host on Retro Blast? -Patrick
Gabriel Knight 2 is tough because part of the reason I love it is the cheesy live action stuff, so I'd want that intact!
Every day I hope for Dino Crisis Remake to be a reality. It gets my vote followed by Parasite Eve.
I'd absolutely love to see a great remake of Redneck Rampage!
Yea a re-release would be perfect tbh
Chrono trigger. If any game deserved a remake (ideally in HD-2D), it'd definitely be chrono trigger!

Oh god I'm so sorry, that's horrible 😔
Sony PS1 games might seem like they don't hold up graphically today to some, but I think they still look as charming as ever. And most importantly, tons of PS1 games are still so much fun to play!

I've been doing that anyway tbh 😅
Who'll design the logo? 👀
Okay, I snapped the photo as quick as I could, but this HAS to be a Tears of the Kingdom reference right? I'd love to see Nintendo do more references across games like this besides Mario Kart.
Lagoon so far, I'm relatively early.
Haha, I can safely say it's pretty awesome!
I finally got around to playing Donkey Kong Bananza and it's SO fun!
In all seriousness? Red Dead Redemption 2 is just... Incredible. I can't deny it's a masterpiece.
When I first saw the commercials on TV for Dino Crisis in 1999 I remember thinking "Resident Evil with DINOSAURS?! That sounds terrifying..." And honestly? I think it still is! 🦖
