Airshack got a reaction from Justin in Dragon's Lair for the TI-99/4A (Really!)
I remember when this one showed up in the arcade it looked amazing. They wanted 50-cents per play which was strike-one. Interesting technically but somewhere between a real game and a repetitive video due to its on-rails nature so....strike-two and three. Never was a big fan of the Laser Disk games for the on-rails aspect. My favorite Laserdisk "game" was Mad Dog McCree which holds up to this day.
I have Mad Dog for my Macintosh Perform running Mac OS8.6. The Mac version is an exact copy of the arcade version with the same video out takes, etc....just no handgun.
Still, amazing technical achievement getting this into a TI cartridge.

My system is reverting to the PEB again because I just ordered TipiPEB. Love those flashing lights and floppy drive capability.

I don't really know if anyone has finished ESCAPE NORTH KOREA other than me? I'd like to see if anyone can do it. It'd be interesting to see their times.

Oh, here is the teaser video I made for it last year, it intentionally does not show all the good parts... cause I want you to find them yourself!

I currently have two TI systems setup in the den. These photos were taken about 10 minutes before the timestamp on this posting.
System #1: Main Unit
This system has been modified and expanded a little. The console has an F18A and a PS/2 keyboard enhancement internally. The P-Box holds a 1Meg SAMS card, TIPI with an RPi 3B+, Triple Tech Card, 80 Track Floppy Controller and a Lotharek HxC SD card storage device. I mainly use this one for scheduling, BBSing, beta testing and anything that uses 80 columns.
System #2: Gaming Unit
This unit is unmodified, I use it mainly for a small amount of gaming. This one has also become my "portable unit". It has two 3D printed sidecars, the first is a TIPI/32K running a RPi ZERO W and the second in a speech synthesizer.
