Hi, all of you new followers! Figured I’d intro myself. I’m Davy, I’m a 40-something Married Dad of two with a video game hoarding problem! 🤣
I play & collect retro games as well as contemporary. The Sega MS has a special place in my heart!
Looking forward interacting with the community here!

Came across the first Digital Camera I ever bought, from back in 2000! Might have to revive it! Check out that memory card though! 🤣

Definitely needs the joystick to play! Think I'll use my Arcade stick rather than a PS5 controller next time...although, the Analog sticks worked even on Xemu....

I know it doesn't look or sound like much compared to nowadays, but it still gives me a little bump of nostalgia!

So, who's old enough that they were playing this in the arcades in 1985/86? Star Force and Space Invaders were the first two Arcade games I ever played! 30 years later and I still can't complete it! 🤣

Our ‘pooper’ Remy, was in for her shots and yearly check up last night. She just turned 10 this year, but still acts like a puppy when she goes to the vet 🙂

As a middle aged Dad, I’ve given up speed running, and taken on a new challenge….
Monitoring the thermostat via internet!
Saved a feckin fortune today compared to yesterday!

DavyPGH @davypgh.bsky.social · Jul 12

I don’t have a lot of nostalgia for the Atari 2600, even less for the 7800. But when it’s on sale for $60, and you can find a way to play cartridges on a modern TV easily, why not? 🤷
