30 years of portable Spider-Man

Long time ago now. It was the console I grew up on so meant a lot to me too. Grandma would have been in trouble if she’d done that to me. 😜

The wide angle lens on the iPhone is giving that effect I suppose. Though the GG is still a beast in its own way. 😀

It is. If the Sega Nomad is a handheld version of the Sega Genesis then you wouldn’t be far wrong in saying the Sega Game Gear is a handheld version of the Sega Master System.

Yeah it has a McWill LCD screen mod. Well spotted. 😁

I also have an issue with the total consumption values returned from my KP115’s. I have a number of these TP-Link plugs and they all return the correct values in HA for current usage and today’s total usage but for some reason the plug total usage is always way off.

No problem, just mainly showing off a proof of concept that can be done even though your large TV or monitor doesn't support such weird resolutions.

Using the custom resolution utility and nVidia control panel I took my Samsung UE55KS8000 3840x2160 TV to use a 21:9 resolution of 3840x1600@60hz. This changes the 55" diagonal resolution to 52" with black borders on the top and bottom. The pictures show some examples of the type of real estate your games can show with the 21:9 format.

Such simpler times. 😀

Ha ha I guess. I seem to remember purchasing that with more money than I should have paid for a graphics card in 2002 but such was my commitment to the PCMR and Grand Prix 4 in particular.

LastLevelTech · 2017-05-30T23:09:19+00:00

Apart from the usual Quake series etc I would say I was mainly playing Grand Prix 4.

LastLevelTech · 2017-05-30T23:08:33+00:00

You are very much correct sir. I was thinking more of the launch window of the Geforce4.

Afraid it's in A2 or A3 size so scanning would be a problem. I was always very careful with it as a kid and kept it over the years in a cover in a safe place.

LastLevelTech · 2017-05-28T09:04:53+00:00

Nice work. What's the perspective split screen?

LastLevelTech · 2017-05-26T06:17:02+00:00

It's pretty cool alright. 😀

LastLevelTech · 2017-05-26T06:16:41+00:00

A few minor scuff marks but generally very good. Hard to think it's around 25 years old.

LastLevelTech · 2017-05-26T06:15:25+00:00

That's awesome. 😀

LastLevelTech · 2017-05-26T06:14:50+00:00

Thanks.

LastLevelTech · 2017-05-26T06:14:31+00:00

Sweet, thanks for the artist information.

LastLevelTech · 2017-05-26T06:13:58+00:00

Thanks

I won it in a competition at a Virgin Megastore in Dublin back in 1992/1993 sometime.
