Just a fun little Quick Bytes this time around, coming to you a whole week ahead of the mere mortals inhabiting the rest of retroworld. You asked what Josiefractic is nostalgic for & this is the answer; her favourite retrogaming system from when she was 8. It's the Mix Max MP3 Player / Game made by Disney! But one game lo...

Ladyfractic here! The time has come to Meet Josiefractic!
Thank you for all of your excellent questions. We tried to get to as many as we could and I'm sorry if we couldn't get to everyone's. We may consider doing a round two and some point so if you have any more brewing keep them in mind for next time. I appreciate ...
Update 2 (23-Mar-2023): The fax line is now back in business! 🎉 Details and fax number below for anyone who missed out first time around.
Update 1: Alas it crashed overnight and is currently offline. Trying to fix now. But I have received 6 faxes from you guys up until now which is great. Many thanks!
Enjoy your early access to all the “latest” retro stuff!
I’ll be uploading a slightly amended version for the public as we got a couple of copyright claims for music in this version, but you can enjoy them in their entirety here on Patreon 🥳
Update: I've added a higher resolution upload though I'm not sure if that makes things better or worse 😅
I'm not sure if the world is ready for this yet. What do you think?

During Superbowl XVIII Apple ran their "1984" Super Bowl Commercial directed by Ridley Scott and conceived by Steve Hayden, Brent Thomas & Lee Clow. It's a classic ad that some might say is more relevant in 2023 than ever. Here I have upscaled it using Topaz from various sources including Jason Fox's excellent recreation,...

We hope you love what is by far the biggest The ЯRetro Show edit in our 22 episode history, as we take you for a special preview of Super Nintendo World in Los Angeles, plus all the usual fun besides! I have no idea how we packed all this into just over 35 minutes ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
While we work on some bigger projects, to tardis I mean tide you over, here's a little video that will go public Saturday about documenting the process to convert a boring white door into a fully working (kind of... you'll see...) TARDIS!

We've got lots going on in the ЯR kitchen at the moment. As I type this, a real TARDIS is being painted onto the inside studio door (yes, the one you've seen in The ЯRetro Show has been superimposed in editing up until now). Also a fun idea for the other door that I've always felt was a bit awkwardly placed... we're turning...

Although we released a holiday special I didn't want to leave you empty handed over new year's, so here's no less than 6 short videos of introducing my 13 year-old Nephew to the Commodore 64! In this we'll write and edit a little program, load and save it to/from disk, and more fun stuff.
Dear Supporters
1) New playlists: If you're stuck for something to watch over the holidays after The ЯRetro Show, I just added 3 new Playlists to the channel homepage!:

Video updated with a few tweaks/fixes plus hi-res footage of Richmond High Street (1982) that I bought from the rights owner. It's actually unused footage from a Michael Caine movie; "The Jigsaw Man"! Updated link: https://youtu.be/nFYQKktBtDc
Update: I have now added English translations for the first and third raps. Turn on Subtitles to see the wonderful lyrics!
Well this is a bit of fun! I've actually been fine tuning these for a couple of months to get them to what I consider to be acceptable for republication. As before there's some AI upscalin...
Here's a super fun recipode of The ЯRetro Show where there's just too much going on to try to even explain! This will go public Saturday, but there will be a Christmas Special The ЯRetro Show on December 24th to help you get truly into the holiday spirit!
