  1. Just gave it a quick go and yes it's a case of "reversing the reels" all 3 play reels plus the number reel....

    Like Logopolis said,in mfme v20.1 go to design mode, click edit (top bar goes red) then right click on each reel and select properties...  in the properties box click the top right "reversed" box...  click apply apply box (bottom right)... once all have been changed (band 1,2,3 And 4 need to be changed) exit out of dialogue box and then click back on design tab and untick edit to return to normal mode.... enjoy game

  2. Nintendo Wii are so cheap now (just picked up a red one  with 2 wii motes and and 3 nun chucks  for £15) and so easy to soft mod would defo recommend people getting hold of a real one... as for retro Mario kart it's a toss up between the wii version (using classic controller) and n64

    not a bad effort for using a wheel (or wii mote for that matter)  much better than i do with one ...  i only use the classic controller myself 

    nice video, hope to see more pc based emulation with dolphin, I also highly recommend Redream dreamcast emulator (I paid the £5 for the pro version)

    Yep that was another site I stumbled on when I was scrounging for freebies must of been 2010/11

    I was looking for a nes emulator (fce I think it was called) and miss typed my search....  never even knew fruit machine emulators existed till then... like I said Happy days... giveawayoftheday was the go to site back then (when it had the software library ... stopped using it when they binned that section)

  4. The first Spectrum game I played was a clone of this called "Mr Wimpey", that added a small arcade cross the screen game before you got to the burger time screen, both kind of remind me of MrDo's Castle

    Indeed, back in the day, can't remember the magazine but they used to basically compare Arcade games to the 'home' equivalent.   I remember them showing the maps for Pac-Man, that if you followed would never get eaten by the ghosts and showed a similar method for the Atari Home version in the same article.

    The ghosts moved in a set way... they had a programmed way to decide which way to move in comparison to where pac-man was...  you could use this knowledge to find certain spots on the map to "hide"....  my mum could get to the kill screen on 1 credit... never knew it was a big thing living in Croydon... certainly could have beaten billy mitchell any day of the week (without cheating 😉  )

    Sure there will be a video on youtube explaining it (it's to do with the pixels in conjunction with pacmans position and each ghost only being to move a certain way at junctions, far to hard to explain in words even if I could remember the specifics) but it WILL melt your brain lol

  6. As the title says a new (old)Amiga mini console is coming soon, with 25 built in games (and some actual corkers, not just shovelware) as well as the ability to load your own games through WHLoad,. Usb keyboard support as well.

    And not only that it looks like it will have the a600 and a1200 chipsets and aga emulated too.

    I know I can just carry on with Winuae on my laptop, but it does look sexy, am very  tempted to get one
