Retro Style Spotlight | 4-19-16 | Atari & WonderSwan, GameFront, 24k NES, GB Zero, Real NES Zapper
23Today's Retro Style Spotlight is very Nintendo heavy! I had a few stories about Game Boy, so I just fit the episode around that theme! First I remind everyone about the last 2 Tutorials we did on the channel. Last week was a LaunchBox 5.9 Patch Notes video which took the place of RSS. When those video's need to be made, they will more than likely replace RSS that week. I am also sad to report that GameFront will be ceasing operations by the end of the month. A company in Washington has created a 24-karot gold plated NES and it is sexy. A user by the name Wermy has created an awesome Raspberry Pi Zero project inside a real Game Boy case, this thing looks awesome. A Texas based company has also created a real handgun based on the NES Zapper. While awesome there are a few concerns to be had on the project. This month in gaming I quickly mention that in April 2000, Nintendo officially sold their 100 millionth Game Boy handheld and that Majora's Mask was released to the world on N64.
