The #OPLArchive is my project to preserve the history of DOS-based chiptune music in a central location, using the universal VGM file format. I'm trying to find and add as many songs as I can. Check it out at https://opl.wafflenet.com - You can even listen in your browser! #YM3812 #YMF262

Wednesday, October 4, 2023, at 2:20 pm
EST /12:20pm MST, a nationwide test of the Emergency Alert System will take place. All cellphones will broadcast a loud, blaring sound, like an Amber Alert, and then display a text message with additional info. This could be a safety concern for survivors who have 'secret' phones that they are trying to hide from abusers. To prevent this, and any local or national alerts, from sounding, phones can be powered off, turned to airplane zxmode, or turned off in your phone settings.

It's an "XMPlay skinned to look like an Amiga and blasting breakbeat 4-channel MODs" kind of morning

#DailyRetroGame 205: Pro Pinball: Big Race USA (1998)

While less well received than its Pro Pinball predecessors, I loved Big Race USA. The table design was excellent, with plenty to do, and it looked superb. The ability to mess around with configs also unleashed your inner pinball table geek. Alas, only Timeshock ever got a modern remake, and so this game’s race permanently ended long ago.

Play it on: #PlayStation, #PC, #Mac, #Dreamcast

What's more obscure and retro than a TAM? Why, using the S-Video on the TAM to play a Japanese Sega Saturn! For October, here's Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, playing as Saturn-exclusive Maria. Comes with a nice Vampire Killer remix! https://youtu.be/iSX3vyT3SNM
