Potentiometers are standard these days, and it's how just about all joysticks on the market work these days. However, the N64's optic mechanism works very well. The problem with it is that it has mechanical issues. You can help it a lot by putting a little silicone lubricant in the joystick bowl and...

I think the menu screen itself just needs a little sprucing up, but is generally fine. A little animation with some sprites and maybe some sounds and I think it doesn't need much change at all.

Argh, I hate writing about myself :? Mike J Moffitt has recently moved to making games for game consoles. Taking a break from a few larger projects, Karate Kick is a rewrite of an iOS game of the same name as a first experiment in 6502 assembly. You can find games, music, and electronics projects a...

That looks nice and clean. Maybe it's not very NES-like for the in-game art to match the box art

I agree that advertisement posts like this should be deleted if there's no engagement or any real other content, even if some of us skim them quickly and don't pay a lot of attention to those facts

I have received a private message asking for a port of 240p Test Suite to Famicom Disk System. I had to reply that I lack a Famicom, RAM adapter, and FDSStick with which to test it. Is there demand for an FDS port among anyone else? What Rainwarrior said re: emulators, but if you really need, I can...

Their PCB capability page shows:

So, that's quite flexible. I might give them a try at some point.

I'd like to enter. I'd also like to know if this will be preserved and maintained better than the last one that was on bitpuritans.eu (defunct).

Yes, as I mentioned earlier.

I missed that, thank you.

Can this be included on the cartridge alongside the 2016 compo entries?

I could try, but most of his files are 5 years old on github though.

I think Shaun will respond if you do a pull request on github. I made one 9 months ago and IIRC he got back to me within a couple of days.

I'm going to his house tomorrow, so I can whine at him to check the repository.

Not much of a difference, because the low bandwidth of composite produces a similar effect anyway.

Late revision with fixed iNES header and katakana tweak.

Related to that, I did some measurements and made this page: http://www.chrismcovell.com/gotRGB/snesblur.html Rise and fall times are both quick... enough . It's any transition to a mid-tone that takes forever. I don't know the electronic theory involved... http://www.chrismcovell.com/gotRGB/screen...

The cover's looking fantastic. This will be a great cartridge!
