Ordered Gravitic Mines for the Jaguar and Knight Guy in Low-Res World for the 7800.  I was tempted to order some others but need to check my games spending after the holidays. 

My wife, eldest son, and I got tested earlier this week, and all the tests back negative. My younger son is now out of house isolation as well. It was just a nuisance more than anything else. I'm thankful that it was nothing more than that.
Two of my wife's sisters are in town and will be staying with us all next week. That should be fun.
Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas!

It sucks that your family is going through that again.  I'm sorry.  Hang in there and let us know you are ok.
 
 

Oh that's awesome.  I've been having fun with the few minutes I have had with Jaguar IS.  To know there's an even better version on PS is good to know.  I'll have to look for that one.
I was a HUGE fan of PC MechWarrior back in the day.  The mech games are a lot of fun.

From all the reading I've done, the guy we got to know on-the-air was exactly the person he was to those who knew him.  Funny, warm, and nice.  He loved the game of football and it showed. 

He had the ability to take the game of football seriously while not taking himself too seriously. Yet you learned about the game whenever he was in the booth. His pairing with Pat Summerall was not smooth at first (Summerall had a close friendship with his previous partner, Tom Brookshier), but Summerall & Madden became the pre-eminent NFL broadcasting team. If they were calling your team's game on a Sunday, then it's because it meant something. The game became more of an event.

Yeah, inkjets clog, drain your bank account with expensive ink, almost the same price/weight as gold... a huge rip-off (IMHO).  If you don't use them all the time the ink can dry in the lines and ruin the printer.  I went though quite literally a dozen inkjet printers before I got smart and bought a laser printer.  I've had the same printer now for four or five years and it's still going strong.

I don't  know what happened with my printer.  Probably clogged head.  I hate messing with it.

haha! that's a cute idea @RickR ☺️❄️

It looks great, but I see your printer is running out of ink. Isn't it?

Hah that's awesome! 

Hey, he's a ton better than that song about "Friday". 
 

Cheers.  And thank YOU for all you do as well! 
 

Buy all the games, and also buy some Apple stock.  Keep the games and sell the stock once you get back. 
 

Getting an Atari Jaguar has been the most satisfying gaming victory of 2021 for me. 
Also being a part of the AtariAge Facebook 2600 Weekly High Score club has been a ton of fun.
And I'm mere millimeters away from completing Phoenix Wright 2 on DS. 
 
 

That's a good idea.

Funny story:  One time I was getting a haircut, and the 20-something stylist said "I love that shirt.  Where did you get it, a vintage shop?"
Me:  My closet. 

Never make fun of my cabana-wear.  Never.  🙂 
 

I found the side-by-side comparison video (C64 vs. NES) which I featured way back during Episode 10!

That's a good idea.

@MaximumRD Maybe we need new topic in the "retro" forum where we can show off all of our retro-themed clothes like what you're wearing here. Star Wars shirts, flannel pants, etc ☺️

I've had so much fun with Cybermorph!  Now that I have real hardware, it's been a blast.  That moment I figured out it's more of an exploration game is the moment I really appreciated how great the game is.  I'll try to give it one more run this afternoon after work.
And F-Zero is a blast!  I can already hear the theme music in my mind.  Looking forward to this.
 

Is that an Ikea chair middle/right?  If yes, I think that's the exact chair I use every night when watching TV.  Comfy.  We used to have a tiny TV and I'd pull that sucker right up front.  My wife and kids would make fun.  And then we'd all start laughing.  Well, the TV is much bigger now, but I still keep my chair right up front.  I can't break the tradition now.
