Yeah! That's on deck (no pun intended) for my April blog post. (I'm trying to do one of these each month for 2019.)

Definitely. Cartridges really were amazing; I think that's ultimately going to end up being the organic thesis of my web site. Something I discovered while researching this post: Sega had their own Super FX-y thing with the Sega Virtua

Someone who works for Apple — someone who is probably a lot like you and me — is having a really shitty night. So, I am sending good luck vibes towards Cupertino right now. Godspeed, Apple friends! ️
