  1. Congratulations and best wishes on this venture! I will digest this one slowly, thanks to the tremendous amount of content.
  2. Thank you, @Justin, for your very kind words. Thanks to @RickR& @TrekMDfor their shoutouts as well. These Squad Challenges continue to be fun and are always a welcome break from the everyday. It's nice to be able to get back to them. I didn't play R-Type much back in the day so I will skip the October challenge. I would like to jump back into Club VCS very soon.
  3. These ads cost him his run with the WWF at the time because Vince McMahon wanted a cut, IIRC.
  4. 43,669. I played on OpenEmu for Mac OS using a PS4 clone controller. This was the result of a one hour grind session, my first in a few months.
  5. Thanks for this thread! Along with Twitter and IG, this is another fun way to look back how video games and computers were advertised.
  6. I will be on hiatus until the fall. I will return on a date to be determined.

      Hi @Marco1019, your show will be on hiatus but will you still be joining us in the forums until your show returns?

      The most honest answer is occasionally. I have jumped on Discord briefly to respond to DMs. I haven't posted much on IG or Twitter/X.

       

      Heck, I'd love to get in on this month's Squad Challenges (not to mention Dig Dug by LC Games for the Everything C64 High Score Challenge), but my time & focus is away from gaming right now.

  7. I'm pushing the show back one more time to Aug 16. My focus has been away from gaming but that will change soon. I hope you're enjoying a wonderful summer (or winter, for those in the Southern Hemisphere). I hope to see you in 2 weeks time! 🍻

  8. Hi! Sorry I've been busy (the show will be postponed again, but so it goes), but I'm pretty sure I posted 44,670. I know it's not even close to 1st (Way to go, @socrates63!), but I believe it would put me on the podium.
  9. It's been very hectic this month, so I will have to postpone the show one more week to August 2 at 9pm ET. See you then!

  10. Shoot everything. That's all I got lol. #analysis
  11. 32,460. I played on OpenEmu for Mac OS & recorded video which I can upload to YouTube tonight or tomorrow. I never played this particular version before this challenge. The sound effects do add something to the game.
  12. I finished 3rd??? 🍾 Congratulations to all of the gamers, especially @socrates63! I'll try to get in a run for 7800 Asteroids. I'm still juggling a lot of non-gaming stuff, and most of my gaming these days is focused on the 2600 5 Minute Challenge hosted by Redelf over at Twin Galaxies.
  13. June was quite the year for me lol. I missed posting about my previous episode as a result. So here is the teaser trailer for Episode 107 of Retro With Marco streaming tomorrow night at 9pm ET! I'll feature new retrogaming records, a look at new homebrews for the Ataril XL/XE, plus an update on the MAME Gaming League & Summer Yolympics!

  14. I apologize for my token submission, but it's been a long month outside of gaming. 47030, played on Stella 6.7 for Mac OS.
  15. This game is one of the 31 games in the TG 2600 5 Minute Challenge. I'll have to remember to go past the five minute limit 🤣
  16. Here's the teaser for Episode 105 streaming tomorrow night at 9pm ET! New retrogaming records + new homebrews for the Mega Drive & C64!

     

  17. Here's the teaser for Episode 104 streaming Wednesday night at 9pm ET! New retrogaming records, + a broader look at several challenges, including Antstream Arcade, EverythingC64, Atari.io & TG!

      @Sabertooth, I'm running your video back tonight in one of the feature segments. This is in the interest of time, but you should know it was received well during the previous episode.

      Thanks @Marco1019! I caught it on the rerun this morning. Appreciate you getting the word out and sharing the video!

  18. Here's the teaser for Episode 103 streaming tomorrow night at 9pm ET! Featuring new retrogaming records, a Double Feature Challenge from...well, this site lol, plus an upcoming Lupus fundraiser!

  19. I just spotted this a few days ago. This looks very promising!
  20. This is an awesome trailer! I'd like to feature this one on my show this Wednesday night, but only with your permission. You would also receive end credits. Which audio track did you use? I used Shazam twice and received two different answers lol.
  21. Congrautlations to @greenween! Boy, this one was nerve-wracking & blood-boiling, but it also had enough fun. Also, related to @Justin's post: I am now able to stream the Atari VCS. I look forward to taking part in the May Recharged Squad Challenge & streaming some of my runs.
  22. I will miss out on this month's Club VCS Challenge, unfortunately. I just didn't get to Akka Arrh as I hoped.

     

    However, the good news is that I will be able to (finally) stream future Atari VCS runs! It took some trial, error, and luck, but I was able to split the HDMI signal and record it my MacBook Pro. Here's a clip of me playing Missile Command: Recharged...

  23. It appears the friend setup is similar to that of Antstream Arcade, though you cannot even send DMs there. I'll (finally) get to sending requests this week.
  24. New PB: 2,065. I'm sure the neighbors don't mind my yelling & cursing like a sailor.
