[@mmpsp693]

Thanks for the update!

[@wimwiddershins]

Let the 8-bit madness continue!
Thanks Simon.

[@eliezervargas2959]

Thanks, Gracias 😊

[@Marco-00]

Thanks for the round up!

[@logan_cadfgs]

There are no release details yet for Analogue’s new console, but rest assured it’s already sold out

[@RetroRevisited]

XD

[@obsoleteworlds]

Of course the N64 analogue is continuing the narrative that the shape of the controller needs to match a modern one...despite all of the N64's games being designed around the quirky design of the original and everyone always complaining that they just don't feel right on emulators because of this.

[@churchofthelambofsat]

Maybe it'll support the Switch N64 controller.

Another month, another nice summing up retro-bulletin from you. Would you make a year-spanning digest somewhere at end of December?

[@RetroRevisited]

Aha, no - but I might do a year review on my vlog channel if that holds any appeal?

[@drem_psb]

Just took a look at your vlog channel. Hmm, not that many subscribers/views there. Probably, people are unaware of its existence or prefer not to subscribe to multiple channels. But you may upload a "best of 2023 retro moments" video there on the eve or New Year and do the short advertising that video on this channel. Perhaps it would work. Anyway, regardless of numbers, your work is always appreciated!

[@prongs0611]

First!!!
