ProjectTalk:-Libretro Docs Update

I was checking out discord the other day and I believe it was @lordmonkus that linked to a git repo of images previewing the majority of default retroarch shader effects.....

I added all the availiable images to the Libretro Documentation website found here https://buildbot.libretro.com/docs/ Under Shader Previews I thought the info needed a more visible loacation. Give your thaks to HunterK of Libretro forums for th

ProjectTalk:- Bezels Bezels Bezels

Like many people here I am a RetroArch whore That means I use Overlays to add borders to some things...To fair I dont actually use many overlays but then again my setup has never been polished and tends to be a testing ground more than an actual game machine. Cant help but tinker....   Anyway I totally love bezel artwork and enjoy collecting bezels for all systems (not so much Arcade)   I would love to put a big global pack together in Metalzoic's Mega Bezel Pack style (

Well as I write this I'm currently locked out of the house ? The damn wind caught door, which swiftly slammed behind me when popping to my van.... best bit is the household is asleep   now do I throw stones at window to wake the Wife up or try and get in a window and risk making enough noise for her to think an earthquake struck....   Rock and a hard place spring to mind

Don't Buy from ebuy2016.com SCAM

While I wait on hold to my bank..... I feel stupid for not doing my usual reasearch before buying a product online. The above site is a scam as far as im concerned. 2Tb external drive payed for and no confirmation email and no drive and no response from the site.  AVOID bad purchases and do your checks befor buying....which is hard because out of 4 purchases last week with 2 being from legit UK sites all three have caused problems. Wrong item delivered for one and the other h

My Blog Revamp

My Blog revival,   Background:- I found the blog section one day and thought this is cool, I like writing.

Anyway I have been unhappy in general life for a fair while.....plodding along collecting my romsets, working on my setup till early hours and learnin

DailyTalk:- Hyper is over...

Well my weekend Hyper finally subsided after the wife told me to sit down and stop talking and getting dropped in it at work. 2hr job turns into 10hrs nice. To be fair hypers are fun but tiring. Anyway decided to be less self promoting and removed my logo from here. Its going to be more random now, i should probably get a diary but whats the point in reading stuff, i thought today, tomorrow. Off to dig some flower beds at a ridiculous  8pm...i just want to beat my paperboy score

If you want to join that PM me) EXCUSE MY SPELLING ITS LATE HERE I have been threatening to buy a subscription for far to long.....I was feeling a little flush so pulled the trigger.

Fan Mods Nintendo 64 To Act As Switch Dock

With its thin, all black design, the standard Nintendo Switch dock gives the console a modern, sleek look when you want to play on your television. However, for one fan, they were looking for something a bit different. Reddit user tettzan777 took a broken Nintendo 64 unit and modded it to be a Nintendo Switch dock. The user says their only concern is that they cannot attach the Joy-Cons to the Switch for charging purposes while the system is docked. In addition to making the cartridge

Logan Claws Its Way to the Top of the Box Office

source and story: IGN   By Alex Osborn Logan dominated the domestic box office this weekend, debuting in first place with an estimated $85.3 million. As noted by Variety, Hugh Jackman's final Wolverine film boasted a production budget of $97 million.
