    Nov 22 2025

    We are very pleased to be joined by eXo this week, creator of eXoDOS and more. He is here to talk about the launch of eXoWin9x which is a growing collection of Win 9x games that have been cleverly packaged to run on modern systems.

  • A Zombie Console Awakes - This Week In Retro 241
    Oct 25 2025

    This week in retro we discuss the return of a console we thought was dead an buried, the Intellivision. With two arcade focussed stories we feel old as Space Harrier turns 40 and we remember the fantastic ways that the arcade would try to immerse us in a gaming experience, all thanks to a fantastic video about the Sega R360.

    Pixel Addict magazine is getting ready to launch it's latest issue, with a focus on the Prince Of Persia. Leap on over to https://www.addict.media/ to set up a subscription and to check out the special celebration of Amiga Format in the latest issue of Amiga Addict.

  • The High Cost Of Computing - This Week In Retro 239
    Oct 11 2025

    A hour or so of retro computing chat including: How dare you diss the Amstrad CPC! Roger Dean talks about his work with Psygnosis. Do you really think computers were cheaper in the 8-bit era?

    It would be just wonderful if you could head over to https://www.addict.media/ and check out the latest issue of Pixel Addict magazine. Each issue focuses on the cultural impact of home computing with hardware profiles, interviews, vintage software and game reviews. You will also find Amiga Addict as well as some one off issues dedicated to other classic computers. Tell them that we sent you and they will wonder why you are telling them that.
