Install RetroNAS on a UGreen NAS Box

Tito from Macho Nacho Productions just posted a video showing how to install RetroNAS directly onto a UGreen NAS box.  This is extremely handy, as their cheaper 2-bay devices might be the perfect device for retro-enthusiasts:  Get two matching drives and run them in RAID 1 for *redundancy and you’ll have a pretty robust unit […]

Hidden Palace (via MrPinball64 and Billscat-socks) have just released a cancelled game Boy Advance game called Animaniacs – Hollywood Hypnotics.  While a bit rough around the edges, the game is complete and fully playable.  So if you’d like to play a lost piece of video game history, download it from the link below and fire up your […]

RetroNAS + UnRAID – VM Fix Required

Installing RetroNAS on your UnRAID server as a Virtual Machine is a really easy way to implement a ton of retro-functionality into your NAS.  I’ve been using it for almost three years and have only run into one issue:  UnRAID’s latest software updates (I believe v7.0.0 and newer) won’t allow the VM to boot.  Don’t […]

Inside the Multisystem 2

I’d say this day is long overdue… the day when we are able to finally get our hands on an all-in-one, single-board MiSTer device. There have been different takes on the ‘consolized’ MiSTer over the past few years, but until now, they’ve all been some variation of a Cyclone V dev board + accessory boards […]

USB Gamepads on Retro PC’s

My experience with DOS gamepads left a lot to be desired. While there are great options for racing wheels and flight sticks, I never found a native DOS gamepad with a good d-pad.
