So I paired my #OpenKSK with cosam's main board. It looks great together. As soon as I finish the sub board we can build the whole machine... But need to convince someone talented in 3D modeling to make us a clear shell. Will give free boards for model 🥹 #SegaCD #MegaCD

@RetroJeff83 @starlightk7 I will look at starting this, mostly because I already have a part of a megadrive model 1 finished already, but I just cant promise it will be done anytime soon 😅

@GermanGarageGam @pikuma mips asm is different ofcourse, but a lot of the core knowledge carries over. The biggest difference to PS1 is that you have to write everything from scratch yourself pretty much. Ofcourse Pikuma does set you up with a solid foundation you can work from!

@GermanGarageGam @pikuma I didnt do the NES one, as I am already very familiar with the hardware - having made several games in asm/C before I discovered these courses.

@GermanGarageGam @pikuma (will reply in english, so everyone can read the thread); I also completed the playstation 1 course, which has elevated my skill in my professional field as well (Principal Technical Designer in AAA games), I can only but highly recommend these courses ❤️

@PointerFunction @pikuma I’ve been working on the same one for a year ish now I think. The email bot is very upset at me and I don’t think a good grade is even possible anymore.

@pikuma I have extensive assembly experience on the NES, I’m kinda sad I didnt know about your work at the time. Would have saved me so many months of messing around on my own 😂

@pikuma I appreciate your work a lot! It’s been fun learning this - I love your attention to detail explaining hardware specifics. That’s also been the reason I’ve been able to do a lot of ps1 homebrew the past years (I liked this change of pace tho)

@EliasDaler You are looking at it wrong! Elevating the scene isnt solely about Tools or giving everything away for free. Making cool things and spreading awareness is equally important, something you have done more effectively than anyone else!
