Welp. Here's an LGR video I didn't wanna make:

This is the 1989 Chaplet Halikan LA-30A, or pieces of it anyway! One of the earlier laptops to run a backlit LCD, 40MB hard disk, and two ISA slots all on battery power. And unfortunately it was destroyed. Can we save this rarity?

Spilt all the bits and pieces into four different (and HOPEFULLY more protective) packages and shipped it off to the laptop doctor himself @polymatt.bsky.social

New hidden developer rant found in Alice Soft's PC-98 game DALK (1992). A developer fires a few shots at a coworker for taking credit for his work, and complains about their game engine.

When developers put themselves into games in amazingly unexpected ways.
This was an unexpected great game that Kit and I just blasted through. Feels like an Amiga game in arcade form in terms of eurowierdness vibes. xD
📺: Alligator Hunt, Gaelco, 1994 (Arcade)

A larger number of items from Gaelco's archives were given to us recently. Amongst them was a World Rally prototype (on Modular System) from before Carlos Sainz image was covered with a giant helmet. The development story is well known, so this is an important piece of history.

I'm experimenting with a way to show how DOS games render themselves.
Basically I'm recording a lossless video of the game running on a very slow (virtual) CPU, then removing all the frames where nothing happens, and I'm playing it back sped up a lot.

So. I need eight people. Eight people who are excited to bootstrap a whole new platform. Eight people who have the time and skills and willingness to pay USD$149 plus shipping to lay hands on a Sentinel 65X revision 2 developer edition board.

Comparison shots of the Platoon movie and NES game. Someone at Sunsoft did a really good job replicating the scenes from the movie.
Platoon is a 1986 war movie produced by Hemdale Film Corporation and distributed by Orion Pictures. The NES game was developed and published by Sunsoft in 1988.
