Details on how I did this are on my Github page here: https://t.co/ggcsbLdEXm - thanks Shiela for sharing this. I originally made this for my old Heathkit H8 computer but it was easily ported to NABU PC and RC2014.

Les Bird has done an amazing thing - a MSX ROM loader with modified MSX BIOS for cpm RC2014 and other systems including NABU. Over 400 games work. https://t.co/lBWKShsJFy

@DHLexpress tell your delivery guy to go to the right building this time. Don’t want to see “delivery attempted, nobody home” again. I’m here waiting for my package like I was yesterday. 1995962500

@hamonlord They were only accessible by launching the game with a command line option and then when in the game pressing a sequence of keys to unlock the rooms. I believe the command line was “level2diagnostic” but I don’t remember what the keys were.

@Vandaemon_ @arcade_planet Incredible!

@internetdaniela Ah got it. I agree the M1s are awesome. I didn’t know of any headsets that support Macs but running through VM on Windows makes sense. Nice job Daniela 👍🏻

@andr4andr4andr4 @MadewMagicLeap @javierdavalos Magic Leap is enterprise now, not interested in the consumer market anymore and not interested in competing with Meta. Enterprise customers will make their own apps to solve their own unique problems. I think they’re hoping to be acquired by Microsoft.

@internetdaniela @Aidan_Wolf @monica_bzaar @elepiech Err I mean Europe not UK.

[Les Bird @lestopher13]

@internetdaniela @Aidan_Wolf @monica_bzaar @elepiech They have no Target’s in the UK, so yes time to move back 🙂

[Les Bird @lestopher13]

@ninalikespi Wow that was a fast year. Seems like you just left MA yesterday.

[Les Bird @lestopher13]

@rabovitz @jasteinerman @BuggeHansen Rony, this reminds me of the Halcyon prototype we did at Magic Leap 👍🏻

[Les Bird @lestopher13]

@internetdaniela Yikes! Time to move back.

[Les Bird @lestopher13]
