ah holiday time :-) gives me plenty of opportunities to improve my passion project https://retro.gold - recently improved search a lot, and added a new "wide screen" mode that shows all relevant game info AND the manual above the fold. Try it and give feedback if you want.

I apologize for not keeping up with the numbers all year for the #stopkillinggames initiative. After Finland got 100% in less than a month, and Germany followed up soon after (and Poland, and Sweden...) I assumed that I did not need to remind folks, and that the reminding would have a negative effect.
I was also unaware of the crap from a certain "pirate games" which ... not going to go there, just "boot to the head" is required. Repeated boots to the head.
So. Let's go over some things.
@madcap and ps (you know ps your nick is too difficult to search for (: ) : Portugal is ALMOST 100%. Y'all should be able to ace that. FRANCE went over 100%. SPAIN went over 100%.
FINLAND HAS OVER 250% OF THE SIGNATURES NEEDED. GERMANY AND POLAND: OVER 200%.
This is a win for everyone and right now we really need a win given how CRAP so many other things are, and it's a way to strike back at big companies who hate humans.
Dammit go sign already
(edit: spell stop killing games correctly)

And its done, my first SMD solder job worked out. My N64 (FRA) now outputs RGB without additional mod board! Amazing 
Continued thread
Ok. Ready for next step. Got way better camera, pre heat table and successfully changed SMD components on a test board. N64(FRA) next…
I managed to find a launch-day Switch2, and so far, I am impressed. The hardware feels high end and durable, the bigger screen is welcome, my Switch games run fine, and Mario Kart is great fun. Happy with it, glad Nintendo had so much attention to detail, it shows. They literally seemed to have fixed all flaws of the original switch. The onboarding is also very good, fantastic UX there.

Adorable.

need to correct the statement here. Got my NUS-001(FRA) and while the board is READY for for it, my machine has SMD components missing to make the RGB work :-/ sigh. Just ordered them all, but they are SO tiny, my microscopy equipment is inadequate. Once i dare to do the mod, i ll post about it. Here is a good setup/guide for the mod: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7esB8V-lD1Q&t=298
Did you know? The French version of the N64 NUS-001(FRA) is the only version that comes with RGB out of the box? #retrogaming just scored one for cheap :-)
Revision 2018 invitro https://arkt.is/no-invitation/ still giving me goosebumps. Every - single - time. What a banger. #demoscene
arkt.isNo InvitationInvitation for Revision 2018.
Finally got around to putting an ODE into my Rev1 Atari ST1040. This one presented quite a few challenges (cables too short, directly soldered to board etc). Quite satisfied that the first test works. Now to reassemble it. #retrocomputing
