This VIC-20 display that looks a bit like an Arcade cabinet. 'The Wonder Computer of the 1980s' Nice. #Commodore #vic20

Well! It’s only been a year & a bit but I’ve uploaded a new video (for the few of you who remember this account! 😂)

Just a quick walk around #TheCave to see what’s what.

Follow @RMCRetro for details & go visit, it’s amazing!

Check out this upcoming awesome #Commodore64 game "Mini Mike" by @SyntaxErrorSoft!

Fabulous platforming puzzler (currently a demo with just a few levels); I just completed the demo and can't wait for more!

Emulation station for Christmas! My first foray into non-physical kit. So far, so good!
PC-Engine R-Type is a favourite so far, as I don’t own a physical PC-E.

Can you spot something?

#ZXSpectrum +3 with Garry Lancaster’s “+3e” ROMs fitted. These fix a number of bugs in the original ROMs and add support for DivMMC drives (see second pic).
