@FreddyVETELE @Retro_Erik Are there plans to make a 16-bit ISA version for AT class PCs?

@jk_rowling At this point, we're starting to seriously suspect there might have been an old crush of yours who prefered a trans woman over you. I mean, overrated artists usually only go for the far right niche long after they've faded from relevance. And Harry Potter is still a thing.

@KaiserNeko @jk_rowling @writerfromnorth @CarolineFinchD @jessiegender Most beautiful bigot smackdown in the history of EVAH!

@TVFilmProps Also, where's the name "Marconi"?

[Retrópolis @retropoliscity]

@TVFilmProps Where's the smoking gun that this is from 2012? Is it in one of the labels?

Traduzindo a notícia-bomba dos Williams para o português: https://t.co/GD7tT3Q1sZ

[Ken Williams @caboken]

A while back, we were approached by some filmmakers who were interested in producing a documentary about the adventure game genre, but more specifically, the story of myself, Roberta and Sierra On-Line.

We refused.

Sierra On-Line's story is an amazing one, and it deserves to be told. However, we've been down this road before, on a couple other documentary projects, and nothing ever happened with either of them.

One of the producers on the project, Cade Peterson, is a friend of a friend, and is himself in the game industry. Cade kept pushing, after our refusal, and ultimately convinced us his team would deliver.

The Sierra story is the thing great movies are made of. There’s highs, lows, good guys and bad guys, and so we are excited to finally see it told in this documentary format.

Last week we did the first interview for the documentary. It was a long grueling day. The documentary folk dug in deep and captured some incredible footage. I had thought we might be done, but there's a lot more to cover. We’re delighted to see that some of our beloved Sierra creators like Al Lowe and Lori and Corey Cole are part of the project too… with many more to come, we’re told!

You can follow the project for updates at this link:

@caboken Shoot for an Oscar. No other outcome is acceptable. If you don't get one, the Academy sucks. (Even more than it sucks as-is.)

@RetrohaxN If it DOES work, please please PRETTY please send me the link in private so I can buy some before the retro-stampede. Can be?

@petrih3 That was a very fun trip! We had to mention it in our blog. (Sorry for the horrendous visual joke.) https://t.co/4GZ0EUd6Ds

BTW, Ricardo send this updated photo, with his two Omegas (MSX 2+ DIY). They are more recent photos, from 2024. #MaySiXth

Here goes a photo of Ricardo Pinheiro's setup, one of the low resolution minds behind @RetropolisCity. Unfortunately it's been dismantled due to changes in his office. #MaySiXth

@BananaBytesBr @shmupdb Actually, for now it's just bravado. Reports of unbanning were just a few idiots using VPNs and trying to fuel chaos.
