Dynablaster might not be so bad, depending on what your platform of choice was, and where you lived. It was officially called Dynablaster on the Atari ST, Amiga, DOS and Gameboy, in Europe at least. I only ever played 'Dynablaster' on the GB and on the ST, so, that's what it was to me, originally 😍

They're not mine! So, at most, you can just say I found them :) I'm trying to remember which forum I found them on, but, it's at least 3 years ago! So, not much luck... I'll keep digging.

For @nicole.express. I was looking around, for a list of Arcade Card Pro enhanced games, and, saw your blog post. So, here's two photos I came across on a forum. I figured you might be interested. For everyone else, it's an open Arcade Card Pro! Open Super System Card 3, for comparison.

It's a remake of the 1985 Atari 800 game. The Commodore 64 game was a port of the Atari game.

That's the thing though. The EE's, and similar, who model whatever they're working on, at the gate level, have it work 100% like the final hardware, will fight tooth and nail, to say FPGA isn't emulation. Which is correct, they're right, in their case. But, they're not modelling an entire machine.

But but... what about your RetroNAS server?? You're going to need another server, so your old devices can have network access too...

I still reckon that was fixable! Do you have a PC handy, near you, when streaming? Just keep your disk games on there, too. Reformat the USB key, copy on the hfe.cfg, and the Menu, and your game, and go from there. Depending on how you actually do it, it might be faster than your existing method.

That, and, Voidtools 'Search Everything'. Indexes your entire hdd. Searches several million files in seconds, with an extremely intuitive search bar. Don't leave home without it kids! Oh, and 'Shut Up 10'. Turn off all your Win10/11 telemetry, AI, and a bunch of other sneaky things.

For Windows... Biggest two things I can recommend, are using Greenshot. Configure a default save folder, and just have it replace the screenshot default windows too. Automatic screenshots to a folder is more useful than it sounds.

The st-link is male. Knock-offs come with female-female duponts. Get a 4x1 pin header. Connect the duponts to the ST-Link, and, then, the 4x1 header. Place the 4x1 in the hole, then just push it left/right, so the pins make contact, diagonally, with the metal inside the hole, and just hold it.

Press it to the right, and hold. Then run ST-Link Utility, load the .hex file, click Target-Connect, Target-Program&Verify. Disconnect, remove the ST-Link. Done. Getting/updating the firmware, I can't help with! But, that's how you'd upload a new one :) And/or debug one you're writing.

m1kerochip.bsky.social @m1kerochip.bsky.social · 30/03/2026
AH! So. The 4 pins on the right, look like they're the SWD pins! That's really good news. Means you can program using a (knock off/cheap) ST-Link Pins are 3.3v on the top, SWDIO, SWCLK, And GND on the bottom. Get a cheap ST-Link. Connect the 4 pins to a pin header. Push it into the 4 holes.

Yes, the STM32 can be bricked by a borked firmware, depending on the STM32, and, the method you use to upgrade it. (DFU is safer, Serial is riskier, because it can't be verified) Check the datasheet, and schematics, and see which pin needs to be connected to 3.3v to enable DFU mode.

m1kerochip.bsky.social @m1kerochip.bsky.social · 30/03/2026
I've upgraded many firmwares in a similar fashion. (I normally solder on pinheaders, now. But, I used to use the DFU method before this. (This is how I learned to solder, too, btw. Needed pin headers on a Gotek clone!)

m1kerochip.bsky.social @m1kerochip.bsky.social · 30/03/2026
You often hold down a button/jumper, to enable DFU, and then, you upload the firmware over usb, with the STM32 DFU loader. The devs firmware has been released for the device. What are their instructions for upgrading? Loooads of people hold the pins in place, rather than soldering, to program mcus

m1kerochip.bsky.social @m1kerochip.bsky.social · 30/03/2026
Which STM32 is it? You can totally just push in 4x1 pinheader, connect the usb serial wires to that, then push them at an angle, for the few seconds it takes to upload the firmware. That's probably required for uploading serially, to the STM32. BUT, most STM32Fxx devices have DFU mode.

Have you played the rom hack where they converted it to the gameboy colour? As amazing as it is on the gameboy, it's not without its flaws (and slowdown). Super mario land 2 DX is *amazing*
