After the tumultuous and disappointing launch of Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy – The Definitive Edition, Rockstar Games has finally relented and made the original Grand Theft Auto Trilogy available on digital storefronts again. Excellent analysis of GTA 3, by Digital Foundry. Released a little over a week ago, the “Definitive Edition” trilogy’s rollout has […]
Retro-Bit has just announced they’re opening pre-orders from now until December 19th on an official re-print of the Genesis shmup Gaiares. This release includes a clear cartridge shell, that lets you see right into the PCB designed by René from db Electronics – Which of course will have properly beveled edges and is 100% safe […]
Although it was really meant for save game storage and RAM upgrades, it could easily be argued that the most important use of the Sega Saturn’s cartridge slot is facilitating 3rd party enhancement carts.

I know the unfortunate consequences of that is content that’s less easy to digest, but we have a serious problem in the retro gaming world: Cloning. Today, I’m joined by […]
Lon Seidman recently released a video discussing SNAC, the “Serial Native Accessory Converter” for the MiSTer FPGA project. It’s a very basic overview of the concept, but I think it’s an excellent introduction for people looking to get started.

Retro Game Restore was kind enough to send me a pre-production version of their new Super Famicom clear replacement shell, in place of the production version I purchased, so I may review it. Overall, the quality is excellent and exactly what I expected based on the quality of their previous SNES and PCE shells. I […]
