Always good to see a Memento reference.  I need to watch that movie again; haven't seen it since it came out.  I always felt it was the type of movie I couldn't watch a second time but lately I've been thinking differently.

I think it's better the second time. A well-made movie will have you finding details the second time around that you couldn't possible get the first time.

I can reveal the mysterious Mr Lee who was helping Mike Kennedy.
That's where Mr Lee has been hiding all these years, developing a retro cartridge based games console.



Mike is the BLACK ANGEL OF DEATH


or lee is just some guy from a famiclone factory in Shenzhen, PRC

I feel like this is probably the final page so last one for good luck:

I think the RETRO VGS is a great idea.  I've bought reproduction carts of classic games for the past 3 years, as well as homebrew games.  I love buying old NES, SNES, or Sega Genesis games that never got an English translation and then finding new life in a repro cart complete with box, manual, and poster fully in English.  I believe the RETRO VGS will be more than just a system for indie titles.  It could be a home for old classics receiving HD Remasters, a breath of fresh air for budding game developers to achieve their dream of developing for a classic system like the SNES, Genesis, or even the Neo Geo, and you can even develop new games that take advantage of the full capabilities of the RETRO VGS.

Just imagine Square Enix, Konami, and Capcom jumping on board to revive their classic Secret of Mana & Final Fantasy titles, Castlevania, or even Mega Man?  If they find the HD Remasters working out, maybe they will even develop original content.

Frankly, I'm tired of the "digital revolution," where everything is downloadable to your hard drive.  Sure, it's convenient.  But I WANT a physical instruction manual, collectible maps & posters, and decent artwork on my game box.  Mike Kennedy knows his RETRO business because he is developing a console that is striving to stay away from the digital world (no internet connection for updates and such).  20 years from now, I want the RETRO VGS to still function without needing some patch from the Internet, unlike the Xbox One where it tries to connect to the Internet for every little thing.  I can't even play Killer Instinct on Xbox One without it saying, "The Console needs to go online for a game update."  You can't even save the game without the update?!?

I haven't heard anything about the system's price yet until the Kickstarter next week.  I wouldn't judge its price just yet until the official announcement.  Please support the RETRO VGS if you can.  I think it will make a statement to the mainstream console manufacturers.

Like any good horror flick ... just when we all thought that it was over, there's a final scene!  :lol:

Mike Kennedy has been posting on AtariAge this evening in an attempt to "protect his reputation" (and to drive the bus over another few of his previous colleagues).

It's a fantastical tale, well worth reading!  :roll:
