Many moons ago, I went to the Space Deck level on the CN tower, carrying an analog Hi8 Sony Handycam. The amount of RF is (understandably) so intense at that level that it was able to induce visual static in the LCD viewfinder. The static c

Nintendo had a conventional approach to gaming for a number of years. No microtransactions, skins, etc. In the last decade, they’ve been aggressively pursuing emulator hobbyists and “making deals they couldn’t refuse” (Yuzu). Recently, they

There’s an interesting shift in perspective that’s been happening around Nintendo over the last decade. While the organization still presents as an odd-ball Japanese company with quirky qualities, it’s becoming more and more apparent they a

HP sold an MCE PC line in the mid-2000s that fit perfectly into a home setup. Pair this with a Linksys media extender on other TVs, and you could have had a pretty modern media setup 20 years ago. https://www.cnet.com/review
