I hope you are all healthy and safe wherever you are in the World right now and whatever challenges you are facing.

NOTE: I do not monetize my videos or put ads in them. If this video has ads it is due to the music in the game and the original copyright owner.

APOLOGIES - for the delay in uploading & also for the shaky/wonky camera work on this one. I just wanted to get something uploaded & will aim to return to my usual video quality for the next uploads.

I was tidying up recently & at the back of one of my drawers of bits & bobs was my old iPod Nano. The 2Gb device had a load of my old music playlists on & I remembered that I used to play the in-built games while listening to various tracks. So I dug out an old charger - the benefit of not chucking stuff out but knowing you'll need it one day - and fired it up.

This is PARACHUTE - essentially a shooter with a fixed position that you aim by using the Jog Wheel. Very simple game but it works brilliantly using the Jog Wheel for precise control - although you wouldn't know that from my skills here - problem was due to the tiny screen I had to hold the Nano really close to the camera so my thumb kept nudging the camera preventing me from reacting in time :-)

It plays really well and simple but fun games like this were ideal for the device with the Jog Wheel (remember that? before it all went Touch Screen) and Centre Button being the only inputs.

I try to keep the system and camera steady while playing to give you a decent idea of what the game looks and plays like on real hardware. Enjoy!

I will be uploading videos of the other games - although perhaps not Music Quiz which shuffles your play list and gives you multiple choice to identify the track with higher scores the quicker you do it - due to the likelihood of a copyright strike

Want to see more of this sort of content? Let me know.

Also if you want a longer or better video of PARACHUTE then let me know and I'll try to shoot it differently to make it a better video.

I'm also sorting my loft and finding all sorts of obscurities, oddities and nice games from my collection so I'll be doing some random vids. Let me know if there is a console or game you'd like to see. Let me know if there are any games or consoles you'd like videos about. Let me know if you like the format (i.e. no voiceover and the addition of short facts). Want End Cards added to point out other similar videos? I'm just trying things really.

As always if you enjoy this video let me know.
