Working on the Pressure Cooker patch score which is 45000. That seems like a long way to go. I'm only making it to the third wave. #ActivisionPatch #Atari2600

Big fan of the VideoBrain computer system. The crowd watching the ball is a nice touch on pong-alike Tennis for the system.

Pitfall patch score, got it on my first try. I didn't go underground once for this, I just ran to the right. #ActivisionPatch #Atari2600 #retrogaming

One kind of IBM PC copy protection - intentional physical damage to the disk.

The ChuChu Rocket single or two player challenges are definitely worth playing. Multiplayer is certainly a staple. #Dreamcast

I wonder if anyone bought the full set of 225 Eamon in 1986? #AppleII #Computist magazine #81

Unfortunately I confirmed it's in storage. If I see the box with it, I'll try to pull it but it may be a few years before I see it again.

According to my inventory, I do have Troll Hole Adventure but I do not have and have not confirmed Mysterious Mansion, but if you have the manual, it's promising that it was released. I'll have to look into whether Troll Hole is handy or in storage at the moment.

I enjoy collecting the Interact. It enjoyed several years of support from the companies that sold it over the years through zines and catalogs.

Got the Activision patch time for Sky Jinks 36.63 and the goal is less than 37 seconds no missed gates on game 1. It took me two sessions, maybe an hour total of gameplay. #Atari2600

Started working on the Sky Jinks Activision patch for #Atari2600 The goal is 37 seconds on course 1. Probably a matter of memorizing the course and maximizing of he boost you get from the button press. #retrogaming
