HDN 2,079 Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 I’m hoping to build up my NES collection for my retro New Year’s resolution. Thanks for the giveaway as always, @nosweargamer. As for my normal resolution, well... there is somebody. I hope to gain the courage to ask her out this year, virus permitting. Don’t tell anybody, though. socrates63, AtariSphinx, RickR and 3 others 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RickR 15,053 Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 Harry, I cannot imagine you lacking courage. But I'm sure the virus makes things much more challenging. AtariSphinx, Justin, socrates63 and 3 others 5 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
socrates63 1,357 Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 My retro resolution for 2021: Retro gaming --> acquire a Vectrex, GameBoy Advance, and a Lynx II. I already accomplished, rather unexpectedly and suddenly, the first two. Retro living --> watch in order Star Trek original series and Star Trek TNG. I'm currently watching S1E10 of ST OS.

See rockybergen.com/papercraft for some examples! That's amazing stuff, Rocky! While I do not plan to re-acquire a 520ST although I had one back in the day, I wouldn't mind putting this paper model together for the shelf. I don't suppose you have any intentions of selling prints? AtariSphinx, nosweargamer and Justin 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I am a fan/subscriber of your YouTube channel, particularly the 2600 reviews which I have watched most of them. Qbert was a favorite of mine on the Atari 1200XL computer. So much so that in college wrote a Qbert clone game for a computer graphics class. It was more of a tech demo to meet the requirements of the project but I was the only one trying to shoe horn a classic game into a 3D world while everyone else was doing FPS type games. This unit will get some use and a prime location on my shelf! socrates63, HDN and nosweargamer 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
