Not a bad haul for my birthday today✌️

Thanks Nick, ah that's a shame though. I took a road trip to Old Skool and Vintage gamer at the weekend. It would be amazing (but also expensive πŸ˜‰) if we had something like them locally.

Working on an extra attack mechanic that you can optionally learn from your mentor once you've reached a certain level.

Yes please do, that would be awesome. This game has been on my wishlist for an age. I have 2 and 3, 1 and 4 are just a bit out of my price range when I find them in the wild

Where was it? Desperate to find some new spots - currently have to travel about an hour to anything decent from Shrewsbury πŸ˜”

I'm there, looking forward to it. Side note, visited Liverpool for the day today and checked out Trade and Play after seeing your posts late last year. Cool shop, and bought Rocket Knight Adventures, a very Retro Break inspired trip πŸ˜†

I couldn't resist treating myself to a @modretro.bsky.social Chromatic. It's so pretty and feels and plays amazing. Can't wait to continue playing Dragonyhm by @spacebotdev.bsky.social on it. It's gonna look pukka πŸ‘Œ

At long last, Dragonyhm/Dragonbourne DX by @spacebotdev.bsky.social is finally in my hands.
Loving this game so much, as good as the original was - the difference is night and day, absolutely amazing.

Some amazing custom Game Boy cases from Palmetto Jos. Will definitely be adding more to my collection for display.

Hey man, like others have said. You just gotta do what you love most. You're a fantastic content creator and it comes through when viewers can see that passion you have for the content you're creating

Oh god that sounds horrendous. I hope you're able to get it fixed with someone reputable. If it was a Game Boy I'd be all over it, sadly Saturns are out of my jurisdiction.

Baking in Elysium

Baking in Elysium

Taking a little inspiration from The Mayor of Sanctuary by NaraMakesGames with this one.

You can't just mash the keys though, you have to hit the right button at the right time. Or should I say, "tickle that bowl just in the right places"

This looks dope AF. Any idea of the physical release date? This puppy needs to be on my shelf

Whoops. I may have bought a CIB NES 🀭. Damn you (Thank you) 8-bit Christmas πŸ˜….

P.s. it's beautiful 😍

Can't wait to start playing this. I bought it and then tasked myself with playing the GBC version first πŸ˜…

There are many collectibles to find in Elysium. They might not serve much purpose but they will help you understand the world of Elysium better.

Absolutely love DW (Q) 3, although I will mostly choose to play original retro games over newer remakes - I still bought the new one because the HD-2D art style is gorgeous. I would love to see a Chrono Trigger HD-2D - although the traditionalist in me might disagree if they actually did πŸ˜…

That's crazy. Great videos by the way.

Making good progress on Elysium at the moment (A DMG Game Boy game).
I'm slowly replacing cheap/free artwork with custom made art.
Im also very tempted to convert it to a GBC game before I get too far as I feel some colour would help with the warm fuzzy feeling I want people to get when playing

Going through a bit of an RPG craze recently. Mainly because I never had the patience for them growing up - so I've got an awful lot of catching up to do. 8bit and 16bit recommendations welcome.

8-Bit Christmas

8-Bit Christmas

It has become customary for me to read through this gem in the lead up to Christmas. Now I want to buy another NES... again.

Am I crazy or are the colours on Dragon Warriors/Quest 3 that "soft"? I swear I've been playing on my Pocket and they're so saturated and offensive.
