Games with Pre-rendered Graphics (#239)Beginning in the late 16-bit era and even into the 32-bit era game studios often felt the need to render their characters and whatnot on fancy Silicon Graphics workstations and whatnot, and then digitize the result into the game. The thought was that this made the graphics look better. Do you agree? Join us as we take a look at a few different examples of this technique. - The Mini Systems! | NES SNES NeoGeo PlayStation C64 (#241)
A5The Mini Systems! | NES SNES NeoGeo PlayStation C64 (#241)Join us as we take a look at several of the "classic" or "mini" systems that you can buy which come preloaded with games such as the Nintendo NES Classic Edition, the Famicom Classic Mini, the Super NES Classic Edition, The Super Famicom Classic Mini, the Neo Geo Mini, the PlayStation Classic, and the C64 Mini.

MiSTer Review (#247)The MiSTer is an FPGA-based device that runs cores for many different platforms. It originates from the MiST project which had an initial goal of creating an FPGA version of the Atari ST computer. Curiously, there is no Atari ST core for the MiSTer at the time this video is being released, but I fully expect one in the future. Lots of different games shown for different arcaden, console, and computer platforms running on the MiSTer. The only game that ran on a real console was a few seconds of Dragon's Curse for the TurboGrafx-16 for illustrative purposes. - The 16-Bit Castlevanias (#248)A12
