Lately I've gotten a LOT of questions about the TR Octopus so I figured I'd do a long term review, talk more about how many systems it works on and tell you how its held up over eight months and conventions youtu.be/J1d6udxEXrY #gaming #gamingnews #dreamcast #MiSTerFPGA

Normally I say #Nintendo is pretty wrong in all their lawsuits but this dude is in the "find out" stage of FAFO with #Switch emulation and file sharing...and #SuperMario doesn't like that! youtu.be/XAo-kmvwWDs #gaming #gamingnews #gaming_news

We all love #MiSTerFPGA and #Analogue but let's talk about the future of FPGA gaming and why the sixth generation of console (ok maybe NOT #Dreamcast ) just aren't happening any time soon! And why that's a "good thing" youtu.be/pFiJlcO_XLM #gaming #gamingnews

So what if #Nintendo emulation is rough? on #Switch2 or otherwise. Leave it to fans to somehow do it better than N themselves! Super Mario 3D All Stars Deluxe is legit wild (and maybe now down?) youtu.be/P_k9UihmrKs #gaming #gamingnews

No surprise that #Nintendo is again trying to change the rules in their #Palworld lawsuit. It's like they somehow know they are losing and think they can stack the deck to squeak out a W youtu.be/gl7tlOO6XhQ #gaming #gamingnews #gaming_news
