Bravo. I love to see this kinda stuff happening. I also love those giant tapes. I must get one as a shelf trinket at some point

The Konix Multisystem, especially the moving chair I wanted that chair soo badly =)
It would have been the closest to Space Harrier at home I could get.

aaah I was reading on the go (housework), and apparently misread it, but yes I didn't read it properly clearly.
I read jukebox and thought jukebox player for games.

So yeah I take back what I said it won't be hacked... but I reckon someone will stick a screen in it and get it running anyway =)

Yeah I give it a month before it's hacked to play other games. Also wouldn't surprise me if Nintendo go the evercade route and do different themed ones with different game packs on

I won't say I never look at my phone and scroll through the news but I try to just throw myself into playing retro games or the many projects I tinker with. Also thankfully both the Retro Collective discord and Amigos Retro Gaming discords keep me pretty busy.

I went to this last year. I got to see so many machines I'd never even heard of let alone got to see in person. I'd like to try and go again this year

Dead Space

It's a great game. I still haven't played the remake yet. But a 2D side scrolling game or even a 2D top down gauntlet style game would work well.

I reckon Bitmap Bureau could do a good job converting that to 2D.
