Back with the weekly double-dose of Darius on #MiSTerFPGA 's PC Engine core (SuperGrafx mode.) Cleared both routes with no deaths! A-C-F-I-M-R-W: youtu.be/BihihQb7LEo?... A-B-D-G-K-P-Z: youtu.be/u_PcPgyHgZ4?... Only one route left until all stages and bosses clear.

Recorded a second Commodore 64 demo scene production on #MiSTerFPGA tonight, Next Round by Performers: youtu.be/3Tl0m-v-C5U?... Awesome pinball/arcade theme in this one, with some impressive effects and a fun soundtrack with many digital sampled sections. DigiMax didn't work unfortunately 🤷‍♂️

Recorded another #Amiga Demo Scene video on #MiSTerFPGA today- this one using the special 16x9 scaling in AmigaVision for the demo Rule 30 by Andromeda: youtu.be/LSzZWm18f_M 1080p to 4K nearest-neighbor upscale was used to reduce re-encoding noise on YouTube in 1080p. Enjoy.

Demo Scene video today, Batman Rises on #MiSTerFPGA 's #Amiga core: youtu.be/Qp4A-o7QDqU?... Lovely production but can have some issues running smoothly on HDMI due to the standard and interlaced mode switching throughout the production. See video description for how to fix this.

Video of the Emerald Dragon w/ the excellent Eng translation played on #MiSTerFPGA 's PC Engine CD core: youtu.be/mDySNV98TyU?... Considered recording the entire game, but battles become so monotonous that it'd get boring very quick, so I spliced together the beginning and end.

Local legend TheJesusFish has released a test #MiSTerFPGA build (available on Discord) that allows you to take full advantage of Nvidia Pulsar to get CRT-like motion clarity. Likely won't be merged into main due to it only working with a few very expensive displays on the market

Posted a 1cc video of a neat arcade game by Toaplan called Rally Bike I discovered recently on #MiSTerFPGA: youtu.be/VO50HLVgYAY?... If you like top-down racers this one is pretty unique, and devilishly difficult as you progress to the later stages. Took MANY tries for that 1cc!

Can anyone recommend a good source for PSP 1000 batteries? Pulled out my console and batteries only to find the non-oem one I've relied on for years has inflated. I always store them outside the console when not in use, at about 50% charge.. but it's inevitable they fail.

Just posted a video of Rolling Thunder on #MiSTerFPGA, loop 1 cleared with a single credit: youtu.be/VEn3yie_nHU When you finally get to loop 2 in this one, the differences are vast and the challenge so unforgiving, I don't know if I'll ever clear the entire thing. Pure insanity
