Rees, Rees, Rees, wrong Simon, twas I that gifted the Kazoos 🤪

It was kind of a surprise that P4 could run that well Windows 10 it 11, even with default VGA driver, that was weird. I think I never tried running 10 on any old machine. It was quite entertaining, nice job on recording the poor IDE HDD sounds. 😅

Sports Direct: a colleague where I used to work bought some jogging bottoms from them. When he got them out at home they had a skid mark in them! He took them back and was accused of putting the skid mark in himself. I'll add that he was very particular about cleanliness so his experience must have been an even worse nightmare.

Since Tengen was Atari Games’s console/computer division, I don’t think current Atari really cares since Time Warner would still own any of the game IPs.

A real shame about GAME's demise. I personally had great experiences with them, and bought so many consoles on day of release. Having a Gamestation in town kept them honest and could get some amazing deals.. Gran turismo 4 for something like £4.99 when trading in 4 games. Run down to Gamestation, buy 4 games for a £10, job done. Once our GAME moved into a Sports Direct store my association with them ended.

The Tengen info is interesting news, haven't heard it before. Looking forward to what might come out of that. Cheers!

Time turns, the fire burns, and that is one heck of a big pinball table!

I would love to attend such an event, but my wife would simply kill me. Here in Canada, such events are quite absent.

No, your eyes don’t deceive you - I did indeed originally manage to mess up the release schedule and put this public a whole day early. Congrats to the chosen few who managed to catch it before I realised my mistake! I hope you also realised and remembered to go to work 😂

Agreed with the sentiment about Burnout paradise. Loved the series but I really didn’t get into paradise. Still don’t like the format in the Forza series.

I'm Excited for Crazy Taxi. I was in my Teens when it was First Released, Dreamcast Release was Amazing! I hope then dont screw it up and make it a Freemium game

Same for me with Burnout Paradise; by the time I could get to something I could actually play in the game, I was already turned off. So many menus! A login! Rules! Internet strangers! I just didn't even want to know after that.

I once installed Windows 95a on a 386SX 16Mhz with 4MB RAM. It was not usable.

Due to being in Central Asia, I actually watched this on Friday anyway. Regarding the new Crazy Taxi I'm afraid I fully expect it to be a cross between Crazy Taxi and Fortnite, complete with millions of microtransaction options to buy characters, clothing, vehicles, vehicle parts, custom paintwork and so on, alongside the usual game modes of Battle Royale, Capture the Flag and so on. It won't be terrible, but it also won't really be Crazy Taxi either.

That pinball machine is nuts.

On hearing "it's very large, and lengthy too", I thought I was watching a Mark Fixes Stuff video; and then he goes and turns up in it anyway.

I’d be interested in seeing a video about that pinball museum please.

Thursday's the new Friday!

I bought an Atari 400 in high school, about 1981/82. Had a blast with that machine until about 1986 when I traded it for a car. Fast forward to last month when I bought another 1982 Atari 400 with a Basic cartridge! Just ordered Defender. Am looking forward to some retro gaming!

Cool vid. I’d be happy enough to see the stuff. The Lynx is the most Amiga anything that exists, that isn’t an actual Amiga.

We see us @13:38 woohoo - fans of Atair and Amiga us :)

nice to see Wolfenstein ST! :)

No one using X-Copy?

Didn't know you were a fellow b3tan. I was lumpbucket on there (technically still am, but haven't posted for a very long time).

🤘🤘

Got a copy of CyberStudio CAD-3D 2.0 if you're interested? Was quite fun back in the day. Trying to learn Lightwave5.0 now so no longer any need for this.

come fai a fare il video dall'alto, inquadrando perfettamente la console?

I would've liked to see that MultiPi system in a Jaguar case.

Lovely to see you had a nice time at Kickstart!

This Ramble was especially relevant and useful for the Uzebox. Lee has a mostly finished port of Duck Hunt to the Uzebox so I've told him about the Sinden light gun and I also created a new topic on the Uzebox forum for the SNES Edge enhancer. Mention of the 2 chip vs 1 chip SNES models has a clear parallel or analogy in original Uzebox (which requires the AD725 video conversion chip) and the Uzebox Omega, which only uses a single chip for the whole console and outputs RGB SCART instead.

The way you describe the ST and Amiga's shared history is like the Batman The Movie Joker and Batman relationship, "I made you, but you made me first!" This is kind of an apt analogy. To clarify, Atari would have harvested the Lorraine prototype for the custom chips if C= had not paid off the Hi-Toro team's credit! Atari bankrolled Amiga Corp. with a loan but wouldn't have released the Amiga as it was designed if Amiga Corp. had defaulted! However, the Atari loan allowed Amiga development to continue! Once they were paid off (not their plan A) Atari then fast tracked the ST to beat the Amiga to market which was classic Jack Tramiel evil empire stuff but in a way the Amiga provided the impetus for the ST's creation! If Amiga Corp. had defaulted on the loan maybe a souped up ST with Amiga chips would have done better in the early days? It is unlikely however this 'Super ST' would have ever been pushed/upgraded with high end models (I know C= were slow with this too) and we may never have seen the Video Toaster or any traction in the US market with no video production niche created! It would however have led to a united front against the Mac and PC but Tramiel would have still struggled to build trust with distributors after his previous shenanigans! He would have needed to build a computer platform not more C64 style, "one model conquers all" type widgets! The Falcon was the eventual 'Super ST' but Atari still preferred to sell the Jaguar than support and prosper a computer ecosystem!

Really enjoyed the Kickstart vlog you did in the LGR style. Plus we now have evidence that Pillock is a huge Atari fan! 😂😂

Oh you tease good sir 😂

Good Evening fromt eh Motor City Im burned out with the Pi's, the PICO Mods are Gettng Started, likethe Gamecube & now the OG Xbox Mods. I have more fun repurposing a damaged laptop with a Functioning Motherbord for $20

Rees please come to Cyberlegends 3.0 in September! It's the main Atari event! You gotta come!

I think anyone with an ST or an STe really should upgrade the video DAC in their machines (which is very noisy and simplistic) with the Falcon DAC, Exxos sells kits in his store for a fairly easy DAC upgrade. This not only cleans up the picture in standard outputs, direct to TV/monitor, but it would also greatly benefit the OSSC / Tink.

The ST community now shuns you. Yes, all 5 of us - Hang your head in shame; The dirt won't wash off. Ok, I'll admit, I skipped the vid a bit, but if you didn't point out that the STe version of Bad Apple looks better than either of the amiga versions (ok, the single disk version is impressive) then you can do that next year! :D

Great vlog, I certainly enjoyed it! Especially as an American, where the Amiga and the Atari ST were nowhere near as popular as they were in the UK.

Love the Atari 400/800 and their ilk. Had an ST, hated it. Terrible hardware, horrible OS. Loved my Amiga though :)

Looks like this was a lot of fun, lot's of familiar faces!

All a bit incestuous isn't it, the Atari/Commodore thing. Here due to Lee's recommendation at "MoreFunMakingIt" 👍

This looked Awesome!

I saw a similar experience at a Sacramento. Ca, USA Amiga show year or two ago. There was a one table of a friend showing his Falcon, and 1040STE at this Amiga show. He received lots of enthusiasm for his exhibits!

AMD K6/2 for me 🏁

Hi, Ress thanks for sharing with us the development of that SC-55 emulator, thanks for the mention you got my name pretty well there. What do you think of that Universal Chip Analyser, that thing looks like black magic to me, apparently he want to develop a motherboard with ISA slots following that concept.

Thank you for your coverage. It's the best I've seen and really captures the essence of the show. My first computer, a 1040STF got scrapped/recycled. I don't miss it. I can play Blue War III (the only ST game that I miss) on the Hatari emulator included on Pandory V3 for THEA500 Mini. It was a spiteful Amiga wannabe from Jack Tramiel in my view, that thrashed the mismarketed A1000. However, come 1987 it did nothing better than the A500 except come out 2 years earlier, had a slightly prettier case, bundled some MIDI ports on the back and came in out around £100 cheaper (that suckered my parents)! It was nice to see a Falcon at the show last year, that was a true competitor to the A1200! I am actually still a little bit sad my parents didn't stretch to an A500 Batman pack in 1988 instead of what we got! Plus Lemmings 2's sound was an abomination on the ST and on a computer famed for being used in the music industry! That really was the last straw! Glad you got to the show and hope you can see as I have that the Amiga won in the end! We've even recently got Final Fight Enhanced, which puts the awful original ST/Amiga ports to shame, especially in view of the ST's awful horizontal scrolling and the lack of Amiga music! Now the Atari 400 and 800 featuring Jay Miner's chips I have a lot of time for!

Great video and loved that we're all just a bunch of old foggies enjoying retro tech 🙂 I had an Amiga when I was a teenager and there was huge rivalry with the ST back then. I have a whole bunch of stuff now including a couple of Amigas and an Atari XE, and my next will definitely be an ST!

Epyx developed the Atari Lynx games using Amiga A2000s. When they went bankrupt Atari had to buy the Amiga development machines. Jaguar 64 bit power on your desk would have blown away the Amiga but I can understand you not wanting to rock the boat

Booooooooo!!! Heretic!!

My favorite CPU is Pentium II 266 mhz slot A that is powering my IBM PC 300GL. One of the last Pentiums with unlocked multiplier. I can overclock it stable at 300 mhz so I can play any "late" ms-dos games at SVGA resolutions. I can underclock it at 199 mhz for Jazz Jackrabbit and other games with 200mhz speed bug, AND if I disable L1 and L2 cache it performs like a 386, so I can play Test Drive 3 and other speed sensitive games. Such a versatile CPU/PC.
