Not sure of the exact cart version I have, I’ve attached a picture with the system info here.

Moved over to Rev.1 and got the problem again in mid-combat.

Pretty bad. Old era of PC is just hitting its stride though 😎

Spent the last month and a half moving into a new house, extremely stressful time and still loads to do. I’ve not had any time for leisure. My game room is now nearly finished though and hearing those Tristram guitar strums sent waves of relief and joy through me. Video games are special, man.

Goodbye, Mickey! Sending him off to America today to find a new home. Fingers crossed the glass survives and that he’s actually allowed through customs #sega

Dreadful football game, but a magazine cover, main feature of the demo disc, feature article and 8/10 review in the official PlayStation magazine? Someone definitely received a stuffed envelope in an alleyway for this one.

I can’t see that image and not get a weird visceral reaction to it anymore…

Merry Christmas everyone! May your retro game gifts be blessed with boxes that have crisp corners, a registration card and a mini publishers catalogue. And don’t forget to solder in a new battery before you get started! 🎄🎄🎄

More Halloween horror? How about Bram Stoker’s Dracula? Brilliant film, brilliant soundtrack and some utterly baffling video games. That every version is different is so confusing to me, as is the fact a film like this was turned into a game at all! My painting was based on the SNES version #dracula

Happy Halloween! Jason won this fight, I was going to do a Nightmare on Elm Street painting, but it was just too complex for me to deal with so I went with this classic. The dithered shading wasnt fun though! Also, lettering is really boring to paint but looks great! #halloween #friday13th #nintendo

@dannyodwyer.bsky.social Started playing Blake Manor after your recommendation. Really into it so far. It’s reminding me a lot of Sentient though. Old PS1/PC game. Sci-fi title that was way too ambitious for the tech, but fascinating and way ahead of its time.

As a kid I could scarcely believe how good the graphics looked on Gremlins 2! That title screen looked just like a photograph to me. So maybe I was a little off, but it still looked great for the NES. Had to recreate it for a painting, so much detail in there! #gremlins2 #nes #halloween #nintendo

A little while ago I did a series of Halloween paintings, most of which sadly went un-sold but were actually some of the harder things I’ve done! I’ll post some over the next few days. Let’s start with Jaws! That bloody water was a nightmare to do! #jaws #nes #pixelart #nintendo #painting

Apparently the NES is 40 years old? Christ… That little grey box was the most exciting thing in the world to me, and I still love it today. #nes #nintendo

Yes it is! The original sprites were made by @rachelsham.bsky.social The background is from Final Fight. The composition and painting were by me.

Podd for the BBC Micro. One of my earliest video-game memories. This and Grannies Garden were some of the most unbelievably exciting moments I had at school, maybe 38 years ago. If I had a holy grail it would be to play these games on original hardware.

Seems @zaumstudio.bsky.social doesn’t want me selling my Disco Elysium painting and prints on Etsy 😟 They got a lot of work to do then as Etsy has a mountain of Disco items on there! They’re such a popular bunch though and this sort of thing will make people love them even more! #discoelysium

Apparently the Amiga is now 40 years old! What an incredible computer and one that’s inspired several of my paintings in the past #amiga #pixelart

Hello, #portfolioday ! Pixel art paintings and prints of video games here, about to dabble in digital too. linktr.ee/pixelpaint64

Thanks to some physical issues with my hand I’m not sure how much painting I’ll be doing going ahead, certainly not complex anyway. Digital artwork seems a little easier on the joints though, so would welcome any feedback on this effort of Harry from Disco Elysium! #pixelart #discoelysium

Another great female character is Thomasina Bateman from The Excavation of Hob’s Barrow, an awesome folk-horror adventure game. Love the fact this looks like my Yorkshire home #hobsbarrow #pixelart #pointnclick @samanthabeart.bsky.social

Got another going off today, a big fat Cacodemon print! Maybe someone has been watching @digitalfoundry.bsky.social … Dark Ages not far off now either! 👿 #doom #cacodemon #pixelart #fps

Hopefully a #vampiresurvivors fan is going to be happy with this 8x10” print of my recent painting! #pixelart #gaming #gamingart

Just realised 90% of my Etsy listings expired about a month ago so the store has been a bit empty! All back up now!

A double-header of paintings came up next, two female characters done back-to-back. First was a long overdue visit to Super Metroid, say hello to Samus! #metroid #nintendo #samus #pixelart #retrogames

A slightly different style of presentation for a game that means the world to me, Stardew Valley. These were some of my earliest paintings, repackaged as one piece 🐓🦆🐇 #stardewvalley #concernedape #pixelart #painting #chicken #duck #rabbit

More of my Lake District paper got used on this one, as well as some metallic paint I’d had for years and never tried. I mean, Zelda things should be shiny and gold, right? #zelda #triforce #legendofzelda #pixelart #nintendo #painting

On a trip to the Lake District I picked up some cool recycled paper from an art gallery that had a great texture to it. First up on this medium was Secret of Mana a classic that’s honestly a bit rough if you play it today, despite the graphics and sound being S tier! #secretofmana #snes #squaresoft

My FFVII painting is the only painting I have on display in my house. It’s the biggest painting I’ve ever done and one of my favourites, was much harder than I expected though due to some really varied colour choices in the shading. I’ll probably never sell it as it’s so big, bloody postage!

After I moved house it took me a long time to pick up a brush again, don’t quite have a good setup to paint in now. But I went back to a canvas with this little one of our protagonist from Flashback. He has his red SNES shirt on. #flashback #retrogames #pixelart #painting #art
