    Thanks for answering my question! I did NOT think it was a non-answer. It makes perfect sense to scope your retro computing by going back to your old favourites. But if I sparked an interest towards covering homebrew on the channel in the future, then I'm looking forwards to that as a member of your audience!

    Thanks very much for answering my question, all great answers in this and happy 40th birthday. Also, I very much appreciate the thanks for the help I've given you. I'm really looking forward to the follow up video whenever that's done, I am genuinely very interested in hearing your first impressions on some of the games, and there is at least one Atari game on PC-98 lol. Marble Madness tbh is one of the PC-98 games I've played the most, I think it controls really well with the mouse and it looks and sounds quite good too.

      The PC-98 video is top priority now - in fact I'm working on it today! So much game footage to capture 😁

    Yes I went with the color question because I couldn't remember the capital of assyria one and was driving so I couldn't look it up. But then I thought you know I am curious if the answer is dark green

    Interesting to hear about the band. I was an indie music promoter in London from about 1998 to 2012 so I wondered if there was a chance our paths crossed, but clearly not. I ran several venues including the Water Rats, Hoxton Bar and Kitchen and The Marquee Club. Sadly the scene is much diminished nowadays and it seems those were the last really good years. Interestingly I did work briefly with a band from Mexico called Titan who are worth a listen, although not the same style as your band at all.
    As for homebrew, you should definitely get into it - after all homebrew coders like myself are the retro equivalent of indie bands - you must know how it feels trying to get people into new material when all they seem to want are nostalgic tribute acts :)

      Ah, I suppose I should have mentioned that we were pretty much entirely local to Leicester. We did a couple of gigs in Nottingham, Loughborough and I think Derby but certainly didn't venture any further afield than that. Definitely true about the local live music scene, it's a real shame and it was suffering 10 years ago, I can only imagine how dead it is now. One of our regular venues (The Shed in Leicester) is a coffee shop now. I don't think they're even open for music in the evenings.

    I wish I was turning 40. I just hit 50 recently and feel positively decrepit.
    Happy birthday though! 😂🎉

    Ah, 40 is nothing (the new 30 as they say!). I turned 54 last month. I was programming my first computer (TI-99/4A) when you were born!

    I think you meant Impossible Mission instead of Mission Impossible
    And i think the reason action retro has more subscribers is because he talks about apple. Apple just has more fans than Atari

      Spot on. I'm not even particularly into retro Apple stuff and I watch him. Good on him, he works hard on his channel!
