Mario Adventure is a ROM hack of Super Mario Bros. 3. It was developed back in 2001 and released roughly in January of 2002. At the time, Mario Adventure was one of the most extensive hacks of not just Super Mario Bros. 3, but any NES hack. It's been highly regarded as one of the best ROM hacks of all time.

Your boundary is at hue 174, just like the population median. You're a true neutral.

⁂ is a typographical character, not an icon that needs to be inserted as an image. Unique-looking, but standardised.

I've a lot of nostalgia for these books. It's great reading about others' collections and experience too!

The Effect of CRTs on Pixel Art

On Cathode Ray Tubes, nostalgia and anachronisms.

[...] there's a lot more going on with both pixel art and old gaming hardware than mere CRT fuzziness

This repository contains the instructions for building a Faux TRS-80. The model is meant to evoke the feel of a TRS-80 Model 3 or Model 4 computer, but is not an exact replica of either. It has mounting spots for a Raspberry Pi, display, and associated hardware that allow you to run a TRS-80 emulator and get the true Tandy experience.

You might be good at TypeScript, but if you don’t know what this project does, what it needs to do next, how to build & run & test, and so much more–you can’t move it forward.

The Apple ][ is one of the most iconic vintage computers of all time. But since Wozniak’s monster lasted all the way until 1993 (1995 if you could the IIe card, which I won’t count until I get one), it can be easy to forget that in 1977, it was a video extravaganza. The competitors– even much bigger and established companies like Commodore and Tandy– generally only had text modes, let alone pixel-addressable graphics, and they certainly didn’t have sixteen colors. (Gray and grey are different colors, right?)
