Top tip for old retro folk: reproduce the look of a CRT on your modern LCD by taking your glasses off
@yesterzine @nikki congrats on not being afflicted by astigmatism lol
@nikki Recreate the feeling of using a classic Atari 2600 joystick for more than half an hour by beating your hand with a rock.
@nikki Top tip for retro folk: Don't bother with the Amstrad GX4000, it's rubbish.
@yesterzine @nikki @leemccat I love me some amstrad, but i agree the gx4000 is crap
@devlin @yesterzine @nikki Oh no problem with the Amstrad computers, just the GX4000 and Emailer. 😅
@leemccat @devlin @yesterzine @nikki in my mind, the emailer only exists in the Argos Cinematic Universe.
@yesterzine @devlin @nikki you're playing Klax which is BORING on every system.
@yesterzine @devlin @leemccat for 1986 it was an amazing machine!
@yesterzine @nikki @leemccat dear amstrad gx4000, you are crap, and your more powerful real computer family were better ;)
@yesterzine @nikki @leemccat (Yes, even the CPC664)
@yesterzine @devlin @nikki do we reckon it's better than the Commodore 64 console? At least you can play the pack in game.
@nikki Recrate the feeling of waiting for a game to load from tape by playing an EA game!
@nikki Screenshots with expired polaroid film for that 1980's magazine look.
@nikki I had a similar thought a few years ago 😆
