Wow, this is my first ever attempt at making a video about “news” — not something I plan to do often AT ALL, but I thought this was actually kind of an interesting story where there’s more to it than meets the eye!
I had the day off, and somehow I managed to turn a video around in 24 hours. Definitely a personal record, but probably only applicable to news format type videos unfortunately…research makes everything else take a heck of a lot longer!
Anyways, there’s more stuff in the works but I hope you enjoy this!

Recently at a standard garage sale in Portland, a comedian named Jacob Christopher discovered a Holy Grail of NES prototypes. He graciously accepted to be on the channel to showcase this crazy prototype. I take a closer look at the proto by taking it apart, as well as show title screen and basic gameplay.
An alternative grip design of the classic NES controller, the Goofy Foot is designed to give the right thumb some D-Pad action.
Designed to set the standards of Goofy Foot game play, quality and feel are our main focus. We want it to feel like a classic design, using quality plastics and rubber pads. A standard cord length of over 7.5′ with an NES 7 pin plug, the Goofy Foot Controller is compatible with the Nintendo Entertainment System, the AVS from retroUSB, Hyperkin’s Retron line, and other NES clones.
Sergio Elisondo is a musician who released a full digital audio album on NES cartridge format – A first of it’s kind! This is not 8bit chip tunes but real instruments played like a real digital album. It is the results of several people overcoming technical challenges and in this video we talk about the making of it.
