The next two weeks are the big push to build the new area of The Cave. A dedicated lab for filming repairs and some more hands on system space. I’ve spent the last year saving up your kind support to do this and hopefully you’ll think the result worth it. Videos soon! 🔨 🙏

We had a great time supplying an original 1981 #Nintendo Donkey Kong and other retro computers to the Long Table in #Stroud this week for their screening of King of Kong. Here’s a little clip of it in situ.
Seeing others get enjoyment out of these classics is the best!

The power tools are out and we’ve started building the Lab, extending the hands on area and adding an interactive Systems Library to The Cave to make it an even better studio and museum. Lots to do in the coming weeks.

Today's video has got a lot of people talking about THAT Amiga 4000. The question is, to strip it back to beige, keep it as it is or respray it black? Poll in thread...

For all their quirks it really is amazing how low Sinclair got his prices, even against Tramiels cut-throat Commodore prices.

No action shots because kids but this week I went out of my normal comfort zone and took a class of awesome young gamers on a trip through gaming history here in #thecave. We used the exhibits and arcade and did lots of gaming.
