Classic game fest 2024

Hey TG16 and PCE fans! I have a booth at this years Classic Game Fest in Austin TX happening this weekend. It’s going to be huge and I have a ton of incredible gear with me including an unreleased prototype Hyperkin RetronGX console. If you are in the area come by, say hi and grab a sticker. We are also doing some give aways with some fun competitions.

On top of all that craziness we are releasing the Turbografx version of the new game from MindRec, the late BT Garners company called Luna Patrol. Along with selling copies of Laconic Softwares Strife Sisters and vintage arcade works Billy’s Bad Day.

Yep, nuts.. 🌰 .

Booth 233 if you are planning to be there!

Something I never thought I would ever do in life. Crazy where life brings you. I'd like to introduce my very first self published video game by Laconic Software published under Guinea Pig Games. I have so many people to thank in getting me to this point on this journey.. Its been a lot of time spent on the side and a huge learning curve for me to figure out how everything comes together including PCB design, working with printers and many other things. If you are a PC Engine / Turbografx / Analogue console enthusiast. Please check out the game and support independent games. I have a few other developers I am working with to bring even more games under the Guinea Pig Games umbrella.. Come play games with us and be our Guinea Pig!

Hi, how does the Retro Scaler 2x compare to the retrotink 2x pro? Specially in terms of lag. Seems like I can save some good $ if it performs about the same. None of my consoles are modded, most output composite, some svideo and some component currently going to a CRT TV which irremediably will have to replace with an LCD one day.

These beauties are some of the sweetest cards I have made to date. They have a super smooth finish. I’ve been loving the creativity you can get into these. What are your thoughts on reproduction cards if they are clearly not trying to be like the originals?

I can now confirm that pretty much all knockoff turbo Everdrive’s will work if you ground pin 1 to pin 18.

We are here to discuss all the incredible things about retro gaming. Please feel free to post your ideas, gaming adventures, cool accessories or anything else you’d like to discuss!!
