I returned to #Castlevania #AriaOfSorrow because @jefklak scolded me for having the Dominus Collection and not even have completed this one first. Kinda fun so far!
But I need to get the double jump...

Decided to write some thoughts about #GameCube #emulation on the #NintendoSwitch2, and why I'm a little bit mixed about it.
This is day 45 of #100DaysToOffload

Emulation isn't piracy. What's piracy is gaming companies charging $70+ for bare-bones, barely remastered old games.
"The Simpsons" After Dark Screen Saver for Windows 3.1 is simply hilarious! 
P. S. Here's the website where I found it. The CD-ROM contains both Macintosh and Windows versions.
DOSBox Staging v0.82.1 has been released 
The main focus of this maintenance release is to fix a couple of regressions introduced in 0.82.0 and older releases, mostly related to game compatibility. The other big improvement is the CPU usage of the 3dfx Voodoo emulation has been reduced by about 50%, so your computer won’t go into hoover-mode anymore when playing those Voodoo games 
check out the release notes for the details:

The AYANEO Pocket Micro (Classic), I've been talking about. Arrived this week, and I gotta admit... this is top-tier product design and build quality. Review on @overkillwtf soon!
By the way, I’ve fallen headfirst into the retro gaming rabbit hole thanks to the AYANEO Pocket Micro. Bought an Anbernic RG35XX H a day later and spent yesterday's whole evening with @retrogamecorps's shader guide. What have I done?

New blog post - a combination of how I got into emulation, that I pre-ordered the Retroid Flip 2, and some other notes about different handhelds and controllers I looked into before settling on the purchase.

After a prolonged wait, there's finally an updated v3.2.3 to Amiga OS 3.2. Let's take a closer look at it... 
This year, the popular AmiKit celebrates its 20th birthday. The AmiKit Museum has now been set up as a thank you to AmiKit's loyal fans. All Windows installers for the Workbench distribution – from AmiKit 1 to 11 – can be downloaded and tested free of charge, all fully functional. It's an interesting resource for all computer archaeologists, enthusiasts and collectors.

I'm trying to figure out the best DOS configuration for emulation and maybe real hardware, too. Right now, I am considering IBM DOS 5.02 upgraded to PC DOS 7 Rev. 1 (2000). You get an IBM branded DOS-Editor, but still all the nice tools from the future, like DELTREE.EXE, DEFRAG, PC DOS-Shell 7.0 or Windows Undelete. Seems to be the best overall DOS package...
Any other ideas / suggestions?
Fini Gensou Suikogaiden vol.2 (la fantraduction anglaise encore une fois).
Pour moi, c'est moins fandisc et c'est un peu plus intéressant que le précédent volume (cela dit, les fans auront leur dose de personnages de #Suikoden2).
Car on se concentre surtout sur la conclusion de l'histoire personnelle de Nash (ça se suit bien mais ce n'est pas follement original...à un point près). Ajoutons à cela une vague mais nécessaire introduction au "lore" de #Suikoden3 (Flame Champion, système de castes, luttes de pouvoir en Harmonia).
7,25/10
RPCEmu is an emulator of classic Acorn computer systems

Fini Gensou Suikogaiden vol.1 (la fantraduction anglaise bien entendu).
Ce n'est pas parfait ou particulièrement indispensable. Mais ce fut un plaisir de retrouver Nash (un personnage important et intéressant dans #Suikoden3).
Et puis le chapitre de Sierra ou la partie Elza (un bout d'un autre chapitre) sont cools.
7/10. Pas plus. C'est vraiment pour les fans. Particulièrement pour les fanatiques de #Suikoden2
New version of MAME out - version 0.276
www.mamedev.orgMAMEdev.org | Home of The MAME Project
Latest #mame 0.276 release is up on GitHub for Apple Silicon Macs. https://github.com/mac-a-r0ni/mame/releases/tag/mame0276 #emulation
The #MAME team has blessed us with version #0.276, crammed with "emulation goodness" that no one asked for. 
Remember that obscure 64-bit #ARMv8 recompiler? Neither do we, but apparently, it's a big deal.

Натрапив на перекладений англійською японський рольовий бойовичок "Holy Umbrella: Dondera no Mubou!!", де головний герой це підліток, що знаходить парасольку, яка переносить його в інший світ, який тепер він має врятувати, бо інакше не зможе повернутись назад додому.
Як часто в іграх буває, абсолютно не напружений та жартівний сюжет зводиться до того, що ви у складі іноземного легіону рятуєте іншу країну від окупантів... Так, хоч головний герой один, але в процесі гри ви зможете вільно перемикатися на інших персонажів, де у кожного є свої хитрі здібності.
Гра однозначно варто того, щоб на деякий час втекти від реальності, але не забувайте донатити ЗСУ, бо лише завдяки їм у нас така можливість є.

Ah yes, the thrilling saga of emulating a 30-year-old #Sega sound chip – because who doesn't want to deep dive into FM synthesis quirks while pretending it's the 90s again? 
But don't worry, this author promises a multi-part series, because why stop at one mind-numbing post when you can stretch the joy indefinitely?

jsgroth.devEmulating the YM2612: Part 1 - Interface | jsgroth's blogThis is the first post in a series on emulating the main Sega Genesis sound chip, the Yamaha YM2612 FM synthesis chip, also known as the OPN2.
To date, the YM2612 is pretty easily the most difficult-to-emulate sound chip that I have worked on.
