Der #Qbert-Artikel wird heute auf der deutschen @wikipedia auf der Startseite präsentiert. (Mit einem hübschen Foto übrigens)
Jack Haeger's Four-Byte Burger is among the earliest pieces of Amiga art ever published, and it was recently reconstructed from a photo by Ahoy. Here's what it looks like on the #C64 with my converter (you need to rotate the screen 90 degrees to see it as intended, just like the original).
The reconstruction process was documented in video form: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i4EFkspO5p4
Die beiden ersten Teile der berühmten "Monkey Island"-Reihe wurden schon wenige Jahre nach ihrem ursprünglichen Release quasi verschenkt. Anfang 1998 erschienen sowohl die GameStar, als auch die PC-Player mit einer Vollversion auf ihrer Heft-CD.
Falls heute noch jemand daran Spaß hat, gibt's hier nun beide Discs im Internet Archive. Jeweils komplette ISOs inkl. schöner 300dpi JPEG-Scans der CDs.

I'm sitting in the #DigitalRetroPark in #Offenbach and am browsing through this amazing book about #RodHubbard "Master of Magic". Looks really interesting.
I can't remember watching it, but I believe that "The Train" (1964) on Letterboxd https://boxd.it/25lm is the is the inspiration for Accolade's classic 1987 #c64 game "The Train - Escape to Normandy"

As the Allied forces approach Paris in August 1944, German Colonel Von Waldheim is desperate to take all of France's greatest paintings to Germany. He manages to secure a train to transport the valuable art works even as the chaos of retreat descends upon them. The French resistance however wants to stop them from stealing their national treasures but have received orders from London that they are not to be destroyed. The station master, Labiche, is tasked with scheduling the train and making it all happen smoothly but he is also part of a dwindling group of resistance fighters tasked with preventing the theft. He and others stage an elaborate ruse to keep the train from ever leaving French territory.
It really does sound beautiful! 😍
"The original idea he had was to build an accordion-like control surface for the SID chip in a Commodore 64. The device is capable of creating beautiful accordion-like music with a simple 8-bit flair. He has since dubbed the original Commodordion the “bass Commodordion,” while the new version is classified as a tenor instrument."
