    So I thought I'd post here, I'm sure both of you will be interested to hear I'm gonna be broadcasting to twitch.tv/Android8675, all day November 5th, 2016 to raise some cash for kids (Children's Miracle Network).

    Extra Life 2016 - http://www.extra-life.org/participant/android8675

    I'll be playing on my Atari 800XL most of the time, though I MAY try to setup my Jaguar as well. Go to one of the sites above if your calendar reads 11/5/2016, and hopefully you can mock my gaming prowess and maybe toss a buck or two in the hat for a good cause.

    So it was mentioned setting up a Jaguar. You get much playing done?

    I've been playing a lot of Joust on the Jaguar lately, and the usual
    Cybermorph and Bubsy.

    I've been playing a lot of Joust on the Jaguar lately, and the usual Cybermorph and Bubsy.

    I recently picked up a couple homebrew carts, one is REBootEROIDS (https://atariage.com/store/index.php?l=product_detail&p=1070) which I think i s cool. It's got this great feature where you can post your high score via QR Code that the game produces. It's got a bunch of debug tools too, pretty fun to play with.

    The other is Xenon ][ which is an Atari ST port to Jag. I just wanted to check it out. It's good, but I don't think it's as good as the ST version. I think it plays a little better, but it's a tough shooter on the Jag and the music was all redone. Not sure if the original scores are hidden away, but it's cool that they can port software from ST to Jaguar.

    That's what I'm playing these days. What I hate about Jaguar is how much the CD costs, how much the games cost, how much the system costs, and how much the controllers/accessories cost, SERIOUSLY.

    I'd love to get another copy of AvP
    and Iron Solder (I sold my originals a while ago). I think someone is working on an SD to Jag cart which I'd love to get, not just to be able to play ROMs, but because there's decent development going on with the system. Being able to help playtest new games would be cool.

    Last thing I need is to build a rotary controller like this:
