Is It Worth Playing Games From Tape Anymore?

Canadian Retro Things 2024-02-12 | Is it worth using a tape drive today? I am gaming like it is 1985, loading my games on my Commodore 64 with a tape drive. Will these 40 year old tapes even work? How long does it take to load these games? I am going to sit and watch all of the loading screens so you don’t have to!

Who Was UMI And What Were They Thinking When They Made VIC 20 Cartridges?

Canadian Retro Things 2024-01-05 | Who was UMI? What were they thinking when they made their VIC 20 Cartridges? Today I am looking at the video game company UMI and looking at what makes the VIC 20 cartridge from them that I own…strange. I could find very little on line about this company so I pieced together what I could.

Getting More Colour Out Of Your Color Computer 3

Canadian Retro Things 2023-11-16 | Today I am looking at a couple of commands on the Tandy Color Computer 3 that will open up a whole new world of color on your screen. Many people say they don’t like the green color of the Color Computer screen, well you don’t have to live with it anymore! **MY MISTAKE, in the video I say you can't change the colors on Pooyan. You in fact can just like I show but it is location 4-7 rather than 0-3!**

Comparing Ports Of Moon Patrol

An Atari 2600 Game That Should Not Exist

Canadian Retro Things 2023-10-06 | While attending VCF MidWest this year I picked up a game for the Atari 2600, The Adventures Of Rocky And Bullwinkle And Friends. As it turns out this game is a prototype that was never released. I know this is not an original but I do think it is interesting to look at a game that was never supposed to be seen by the public, an Atari 2600 game that should not exist.
