I use ~/workspace . I think I got this from when I first started using Java years ago. Eclipse created new projects in this directory by default maybe?

Really cool find and great work with the refurbishing.

I’ve picked up a 14" Bush CRT with a VHS player and a 29" Ferguson that people put out next to the rubbish bins. They both need repairs, but they kind of work. It’s so cool to play the old consoles in these! And there’s a special thing about playing a video cassette for those of us who grew up with it 😬

Yes, it’s part of Digital Eclipse’s Gold Master Series, like Llamasoft: The Jeff Minter Story and The Making of Karateka.

From their website:

More than 15 playable classic games from the series’ history are featured, including many being released for the first time outside Japan. Battle your friends in the multiplayer cult favorite Tetris Battle Gaiden, create massive explosions to clear lines in Super Bombliss, and see where it all began in 1984 with an accurate recreation of the first version of Tetris on the Electronika 60 computer.

‍As the next release in Digital Eclipse’s acclaimed Gold Master Series, Tetris Forever includes over 90 minutes of all-new documentary footage exploring the lifelong friendship and creative partnership between Tetris creator Alexey Pajitnov and The Tetris Company founder Henk Rogers, as they share the extraordinary but true story about Tetris.

‍And as this celebration wouldn’t be complete without an all-new Tetris experience, prepare to enter the… Tetris Time Warp! Up to four players will “warp” between different eras of Tetris in real time to experience a variety of classic graphic styles and play mechanics!

I love Marvel Vs. Capcom and I didn’t really play the second one much. This is a day one purchase for me on the Switch!

I would hope whatever team was behind the new Earthworm Jim would get to keep working on it for real consoles/PC, but probably no…

☝️ This. Their cartridges are mostly retro compilations from classic arcade companies and 8/16 bit home computers and such,

The article poising this as an analogue competitor seems naive.

If you upload a video to YouTube, it has to have a clickbait title 😒

Yeah, I hate that Analogue releases are limited. If you miss the window, you either missed it forever or are willing to pay obscene prices on eBay 😞

As the video says, it doesn’t provide all the functionality that the Analogue Pocket has, but it’s a very good alternative for a decent price!

You should check out the short story “Sleepover” by Alastair Reynolds.

And don’t be on fence, get the 3D!

Maybe I will… 🤔

A remake in the new engine would be amazing! It sold relatively well, it sounds to me like more remakes would make sense since they already have the engine and some assets they can reuse.

A lot of people bought the game after watching the Mario movie (source).

Thank you! I’m at the point where I can’t do much because I’m not feeling great, but will hopefully feel better during the weekend 🤞

Yeah, I love my Game Boys, but the Analogue Pocket is amazing. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone wanting to play their old cartridges. The save states and the display filters are great additions. You can also install cores and emulate several other consoles like the SNES and Mega Drive. My only complaint is after I got mine (plain black version) they released a few limited versions like glow in the dark and transparent, which I’d much rather have, but they’re too pricey to buy again 😅

I kind of regret not buying the Super NT, I know my SNES won’t live forever 😬 I’m still on the fence about getting the 64 one, Analogue 3D. I think what they’re doing is pretty awesome, hope they’d get to the point where they can sell the consoles at more accessible prices.

I think the same might be happening to me regarding bias 😅 Link’s Awakening was my first Zelda! Did you play Oracle of Ages too?

I’ve been playing The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons on my Analogue Pocket, in short bursts at a time. I’m on the third dungeon so far. It’s not as cool as Link’s Awakening I think, but it’s fun.

Still haven’t finished Mario Wonder on Switch and haven’t even played Mario RPG for weeks. I need to get back to those, but recently all I’ve been able to play is those short sessions with the Pocket. Hopefully this weekend, though I’ve come down with some virus, so I don’t know how much gaming I’ll be able to do 🤒

I’m not a big fan of posting rumors, but we haven’t been having many official news recently 😅

I really want to finish Super Mario Bros. Wonder and Super Mario RPG. I haven’t played much during the holiday break, but I’d really like to get through these two before I go back to Tears of the Kingdom and others I want to play. I don’t have any specific resolutions, but hopefully I’ll play more this year and finish more games before getting new ones 😬
