    OMG, I absolutely LOVE the mid century designs.  Although I think it's hard to be limited in the "upgrades" you can do and not destroy the feel of the home (especially kitchen and bath).  Just an idea and no pressure, but maybe do a walk-through video of your new place. 

    We love that whole design aesthetic, which is what brought us to the new neighborhood - and every house looks like it’s out of the Jetsons. We will totally keep the feel including furniture that matches, but a walk-through would be a great Idea. Just to give you an idea of what we’re dealing with, the washer and dryer is actually in the kitchen, and it opens up into a breakfast nook. Lots of brick and wood paneling, so we’re very happy.

    That's big news @btbfilms76, Can't believe it's already time to move on, I feel like that lounge is still new. It feels like home, it's definitely served your show well. Really looking forward to the next chapter and seeing what you build next. So much of your show is that certain tone, a nice vibe in a cool place to hang out. I hope you keep that hazy neon purple glow going on in the background. Good luck with your move!

    Thanks man, thanks for the good thoughts.  When you make it to CA... Drinks on me.

    I think that the A7800 version of Commando outdoes the NES version. It is more like the arcade version than Nintendo's version. Also, the Nintendo version added underground bunkers to it to rescue POWs. I think that if you are going to make a game close to the arcade, stick to the original layout of the original game. Nintendo's version is just a different game. Atari tried to make their conversions like the arcade counterparts. I can see why Crystal Castles for the A2600 is different, though. It was due to the limitations at the time. But, the XEGS version looks more like the original translation. I like arcade conversions that try to reproduce the arcade versions.

    This was a great port for the 7800, super glad to have this one in my collection.  It’s amazing that so many sprites are on screen and no flickering.

    Good luck with your new adventure and space. 

     

    Will do!  We’re actually moving into a 1963 Mid Century Modern home - with real wood grain and bricks.  Kinda ended up being our dream house and now a new adventure begins.  I’ll actually have a whole room to myself where we rebuild the lounge, its gonna be a blast.

    As much as I hate to leave, it’s time to move.  This has been a wonderful spot to create, celebrate, and be with family.  I feel that all of you who tune in are my guests and I cant wait to entertain you once again.  Looking forward to rebuilding the new and improved lounge so we can continue to shoot more great content - I had a thought on how to enter the lounge last night and saloon doors came to me like a dream.  See you all very soon.

    New Lynx owner here, liking the recommendations thus far! Hows "Shadow of the Beast" on this unit? The Sega version was a big let down...

    As a lover of Shadow of the Beast game, my experience was the port for Turbo Duo back when it was released, I can say hands down that the Lynx port is amazing in its own right. I will be covering this game on the next few Lynx Lounge episodes as we look at platform games and hero’s that run right. 
     

    Do yourself a favor and pick it up.

    This an amazing piece of YOUR history.  Something to be said about those kids who worked in the summer cutting grass, painting houses, and washing cars just to get a little cash in order to get a game here and there.  I love being able to look back and remember what back breaking job i did in order to gat a game.  This is a cool reminder of who you were back then and what you’re doing now.  Thanks for sharing this Justin.

    Ok quick question - Who is playing on real hardware, and who is playing via emulation?  

    The reason I ask is because I’m playing on a 7800 and by the 4th screen I feel like there is some serious controller lag.  Anyone else dealing with this?  I’m wondering if the more you play the more the memory gets taxed... I don’t know, just guessing.  

    Sound off, let me know.

    I have Commando and like it better than the NES version.  I have not played the 7800 port of Ikari...but it looks like fun.

    We also filmed Commando that night too. Episode coming soon
