So, I just got back from Germany a few days ago, and put together this rather long video of the journey and the event. I had to cut out a lot of stuff to get this down to a reasonable length. Unfortunately, as always it seemed I didn't have any video clips of some of the things I wanted to show because I forgot to...

Sorry it has taken me so long to complete this. I'm sure you guys are tired of hearing about me shipping boxes every day and slowing me down, and believe me, I'm tired of doing it. I was only able to get 2 or 3 hours of video work in per day for the last few weeks, and this is the product of that work. Unfor...

OK.. I started this video about a month ago. Sorry it has taken so long. This will be an interesting year as this project starts to take shape. Here's a shortcut to the prototype facebook group: https://www.faceb...

In this episode I take a look at 4 new games that have come out for old systems:
Rikki & Vikki for the Atari 7800
Digiloi for the Commodore 64
Farming Simulator for the C64
Portal for the Commodore 64
And I hope you like the episode. I like to do one or two such episodes every year and these 4 game...

OK, so this took about a week longer than expected because I kept running into a variety of hardware problems. My Timex Sinclair 1000 and 1500 both died in the course of filming this. I didn't have a television that could display PAL so I couldn't show the ZX81 working properly other than screen captures from an e...

And here's another documentary I've been promising for a while. I would have had it done a few days ago, but ran into some problems that you'll see in in the video, and also have been fighting some really bad allergies this week. I ended up re-shooting some of it because my nose sounded so bad. You can still...

Whew.. Been working on this video for almost two weeks while simultaneously trying to wrap up Planet X3. I'll finish the subtitles and thumbnail tomorrow. But you guys can enjoy today!

Well, this video should have been done a week ago. It's been almost done for a while but crazy things kept happening to keep me from finishing the last 10% or so of the video. Everything from taking my mom to the DMV to get her license renewed and ended up sitting there 5 and a half hours one day, a family member hav...

Well, it's been 6 months since I posted an 8-Bit Keys episode. I purposefully skipped 3 months in the Summer due to conventions. But starting with September I said, "I'm definitely going to make one this month." But then it never happened. Repeat the next month, and almost didn't make it out this month. &...

After 13 months, you can finally see the Bell and Howell get some love.
2018-11-19 18:06:01 +0000 UTC View PostAs I'm nearing the end of development of Planet X3 (well, within the next few months) my mind can't help but dwell on what game I might start next. Obviously, I don't plan to write a single line of code until I'm done with the one I'm working on. But I still like to be thinking about it.
At this point, I'm st...

I just wanted to share this presentation I did a few weeks ago at the Portland Retro Gaming Convetion for those who haven't seen it yet. For those who have seen it, this version has had the audio fixed from the first version they uploaded.
I would like to turn this into an actual video for my channel some day,...
I got a new ROM chip and a keyboard adapter for it, plus now it runs BASIC. So I wanted to revisit the computer and see what it can do now.

I rarely do this, but I felt this was worth making a little addendum. Also, I am going to be leaving for Portland in a few days for the Retro Gaming Expo there, so I probably won't be able to get another video done before that. So, I hope you enjoy!
Well, this was originally planned to be a two parter, but for once a project ended up going more or less to plan and so I was able to fit it all into a single episode. Of course, there's plenty of room for improvement in this design, but it's something I hope will keep people from throwing out their old CRT televisions and...

This project ended up being a nightmare with 5 times more problems to fix than I originally suspected. However, it is all working now. I was concerned for a while that I wouldn't be able to get it working well enough to make the documentary I wanted to make. So I'm relieved that I'll be able to make it. I...

I wanted to get this out yesterday but it just didn't happen. I was sick all last week with the flu or something similar and then got better just in time to do a convention all weekend. So I didn't start working on this until Monday. Anyway, here it is.
I'm about 95% done filming the Compaq ...
Almost two weeks in the making, it is finally done! I hope you enjoy!

So, while waiting on things I need to complete the next couple of episodes, I decided to spend a few days and put together an update of Planet X3. I hope you find this little update interesting.
Whew... been working on this for 7 days. Hope you guys enjoy!
2018-09-04 16:36:45 +0000 UTC View PostAs most of you know, I've been working on this Commodore history series covering all of their machines from the PET to eventually the Amiga. However, it's been brought to my attention that I should include the PC series such as the PC-10 and the Colt. Since I've been trying to do this series in chronological order, i...

This is the multi-part collaboration I mentioned recently. Took me about a week to doo all of these mods and produce the video. Hope you guys enjoy!
In this video I'll show you a few pictures from my European Vacation, and then tell you a bit about what's going on in my usual rambling style.

This is a follow up I've been promising for a while. Still need to come up with a good thumbnail and finish subtitles, so it will go live tomorrow morning. In the meantime, enjoy!

This is just a quick video of retrobriting my C128D in preparation for the upcoming Commodore History series on the C128. I have another video I'm starting today which would be real quick for you Patrons telling you about my trip and some things going on with the channel that I hope you will enjoy as well!
