#pc8801 #retrogaming parlavano stamattina con @danhero proprio di pc8801 ... Qui ci sono alcune foto che ho fatto nel 2022 dell'MR che ho comprato per pochi yen... Un macchina che in Giappone non è particolarmente ricercata ma che permette di giocare alla quasi totalità del parco titoli disponibile per l'8801 ... Nelle foto ho ricostruito il disco originale di SuperMario Bros special partendo dalle pochissime foto disponibili su internet e ridisegnando il tutto su Photoshop
Did you know?
To offer limited compatibility with #PC88 #PC8801, the #MSX 2 9938 VDP has GRAPHIC 6 mode - a double-high, bitmapped pixel mode of slightly lower resolution (512x192 or 512x212).
By writing data to memory address above the visible portion of the screen, you can make use of an off-screen VRAM buffer just like SR mode!
Games like Burai made use of this mode to match their PC ports.
My experiments so far are a success! #retrodev #indiedev #gamedev #assembly
Who's heard of #100YenDisk!? 
This book recounts all 7 volumes released by doujin group #OnionSoft for the #PC8801!
