Bulk deal if more than 10 sets. This is HALF PRICE / set as normally do $20 but I need to get funds quick. All available!

Super thanks to Mike at @retrosoftstudios.bsky.social for letting me deck out his Sony PVM! Of course Steve @retrotechusa.bsky.social restored it 100% & I took care of the shell. Painted up a great retro Neo Geo look. It's good for the next 25 years. Showcased at #RetroWorldExpo & it was def a hit!

Your retro consoles deserve pixels, not a pile of power bricks. RetroTap, 1 clean 9V power distribution block can power up to 11 compatible retro systems; your setup stays ready to play instead of tangled in wall warts. Now you're PLAYING with POWER! #RetroTap Power! kytor.com/store/produc...

Seeing double and GameCube-ey: speculative renders in April 2004's Electronic Gaming monthly of what the Nintendo DS might look like.

A snap of the issue feature with two renders o a GBA SP-alike design with a flip up screen on a thick hinge and a bottom screen. There's also GC controller alike face buttons and a tiny little analogue stick that looks like it would be horrible to use.

The artwork of Minami Taiheiyou Adventure used on the cover of the #NEC #PC88 release as well as for advertising. Still a bit cropped on all sides. Removed logos/text, applying the usual upscale/clean/retouch process. No clue on the artist, any info let me know!

Minami Taiheiyou Adventure clean artwork used on the cover of the NEC PC-88 release as well as for advertising. Image depicts a man holding a boat paddle, standing in front of a massive stone doorway intricately carved with a demonic motif with claws and large horned statues on both sides. On top a giant octopus can be seen with his tentacles swaying around, one of them being bitten by a giant dark lizard like creature. Some lightning bolts can be seen further back up top.

Super Thunder Blade artwork by Yoshiaki Yoneshima used on the cover of the #MegaDrive (PAL/JP) and #SegaGenesis releases. Sourced from Sega VG Illustrations book, restoring the missing bits all around from another source, applying some clean/retouch without upscaling.

Super Thunder Blade clean artwork by Yoshiaki Yoneshima used on the cover of the Mega Drive (PAL/JP) and Sega Genesis releases. Image depicts the military style helicopter used in the game, which is heavily inspired in Blue Thunder from the TV series (which in turn is a modified Aérospatiale SA-341G Gazelles) flying by with two more behind. On the background, a city landscape can be seen with high rise buildings and the sun shining behind. Below there are 3 Hind Ds on the left, flying over an exploding battleship on the sea and three tanks with explosions all around on the right side.
