Can’t make this now, unfortunately. Clashes with a World Cup BBQ I’ve been invited to.

Hopefully we can hold another one later in the year.

People I was thinking to reschedule this , there will be the football match and I don’t think this gained enough interest , what’s your opinion?

My 1981 BBC micro emitted smoke when turned on, now repaired and
playing Chuckie Egg.

I plan to pop in for a bit Sunday afternoon/evening even if this is rescheduled.

You don’t happen to have Defender for the BBC Micro do you?

Nice. The BBC port of Defender was the first game I ever played. I remember playing it with the BBC analogue joysticks:

Just added a couple of consoles tonight, PS3 and DC.

The PS3, SNES, Dreamcast are all jailbroken/modded. Adam brought in the cute NES.

There’s a hdmi switcher added to reduce the strain from pulling in and out hdmi stuffs. With an extra cable for plugging in a laptop or whatever.

I still want to add some modification to the Dreamcast such as a replacement bios chip and maybe a harddisk. As the CDROM sounds extremely bad and will no doubt fail.
Oh and a VGA out mod.
