This is the first video on our channel by FrodoNL.

Dutchman Frodo first started playing games on his Timex Sinclair 1000 back in 1982. That computer was followed in December 1983 by a Sinclair ZX Spectrum. He used that computer until he got his first IBM PC compatible (an 8088 based Vendex Headstart machine) in 1990.

Nowadays Frodo works in IT (as a data storage specialist). In his free time he has a number of hobbies, including games on various retro computers and consoles. Due to lack of both money and space he does so mostly on a MiSTer FPGA.

A few weeks ago Frodo started streaming on Twitch - https://www.twitch.tv/frodonl - and starting with this video he will be posting one of them on our channel every Friday.

In this video, originally streamed on 2020-12-17, he tries to play various ZX Spectrum games made in this century. Some for just a few minutes, some a bit longer.

First 20 seconds, the microphone is muted - amateur streamer. :)
