News: 8Bitdo Wireless Adapter is Now Available for Purchase

Apr 25, 2016

The 8BitDo wireless adapter is now available for purchase from Play-Asia, but right now it’s only for NES controller ports, so it only supports two main action buttons despite working with all 8BitDo wireless controllers (this is according to the source, Analogue; you can get more details here).

First Impressions of the Surface Pro 4 Type Cover and Pen Upgrades for Surface Pro 3

Oct 26, 2015

Although tempted, I resisted the urge to upgrade from a Microsoft Surface Pro 3 to a Surface Pro 4 (or Surface Book, for that matter). Fortunately, several of the upgraded peripherals designed in conjunction with the Surface Pro 4, including the Surface Pro 4 Type Cover and Pen, are backwards...

Atari Flashback 6: The Official Game List

Oct 15, 2015

UPDATE: I posted a full review, here.

The Sinclair Spectrum Vega (ZX Vega) games computer comes with 1000 games, and here’s the list!
