For the record: this wasn't my fault. 😄 This should never ever be done: an Arriva GTW accidentally coupled with an NS VIRM. The VIRM doesn't mind, but the GTW can't handle the 110 volts that's in the electric box of a VIRM coupling.

Lost for 40+ years, we're extremely happy to announce that Stairway to the Stars (#Commodore #VIC20) - 3rd game in Mike Taylor's Magic Mirror series has finally been saved. This is thanks to phenomenal work of Tommi Lempinen & Tom Roger Skauen for #GTW

This could be huge! - A potentially first complete game recovered by #GTW for the MSU era multisystem (which evolved from the unreleased #KonixMultisystem). The emulator has to almost be built around the games recovered for it - so really excited to see what @savoury_snax can get going!

Thanks to @[email protected] and @[email protected] and some luck, a missing title has been found for the MSU Era Multisystem. It doesn't work in the emulator, so this Saturday 12-4 pm GMT, I figured I would do a one off stream where I try to get it working. https://www.twitch.tv/savoury_snax (yes I haven't streamed in 6 years - its a one off) Feel free to join the "fun", I`ll answer questions if I can, but geniunely I just want to crack on and get things working :)

First huge surprise of the year from #GTW with Sensible Soccer for the #NES recovered! A near-complete conversion seemingly unknown until now. Missing for 32 years, you can finally play it. Go be a goal-scoring superstar hero! ⚽

Check out Harrier Strike, a cool side-scrolling shooter created for the #Commodore64 by Players Software in 1990. It wasn't released as the genre seemed tired to the publisher, but thanks to #GTW, you can play a pretty much complete game:

Our next title in the archives sounds like it should be some kind of jet fighter game, but in fact Harrier Strike was a space shooter which was being
