Dear friends, I genuinely thought racism had come to an end within the retro and FPGA gaming scene. I’ve been covering retro and FPGA gaming on YouTube for almost five years now, and for the most part, the community has been welcoming and passionate. But unfortunately, there are still people deeply invested in hate. Growing up in London during the 1980s and 1990s, I experienced a lot of racism as a kid. Thankfully, things improved massively after around 1995, and over time society became far more accepting and multicultural. That’s partly why it has been disappointing to still come across this kind of behaviour within parts of the retro gaming scene in 2026. When I first started my YouTube journey, a group of developers approached me and shared their early work with me. It was genuinely exciting being part of that early creative energy. They would even ask me to showcase videos on my channel, which I was always happy to support. However, once they discovered my ethnicity, I noticed a very different attitude towards me. At first, I convinced myself I was imagining it, but over the years the behaviour became harder and harder to ignore. I’ve watched this particular group grow increasingly hostile towards certain ethnicities, to the point where they even named software after a well known white supremacist group. They also repeatedly highlighted the ethnic backgrounds of people they disliked, purely to reinforce division and hatred. The retro gaming scene is supposed to be about shared nostalgia, preserving gaming history, creativity, and bringing people together through a common passion. The vast majority of people in this community are good people, which is why it’s so sad that these kinds of groups still exist within our hobby. I know I won’t be the only person who has experienced this kind of behaviour in gaming communities over the years. If you’ve been a victim of it too, then I’m here for you, whoever you are.

@VEsoterica @PixelCNinja #CoinOpCollection doesn't care. This is a hobby that unfortunately doesn't pay the bills. They don't need exposure or "YouTuber advertising". They could go underground, keep it internal, or stop doing FPGA related gaming and life still goes on.

Weekend Update! Tomorrow’s Mortal Kombat Pocket FPGA video will be the last time VGE covers cores from CoinOpCollection until the strikes against @PixelCNinja are rescinded. Simple as that. The video will be positive as the work is quality. Feel free to argue in the comments 🤣

Dear Friends, if my channel suddenly disappears, please know it is because of fake copyright strikes from Pramod and atrac17. They have hit me with a 2 video copyright strike. This is mainly for criticising their upcoming #MARSFPGA project and talking of their hostile behaviour

@MisirajEduart NEC TOKIN was a theory. Reflow of chip solder joints has been debunked. RIP Felix (YouTube and PSX-Place.com) and determined the best (and toughest) solution is to transfer the RSX chip from a working console PHAT console.

@retrotink2 Thank you for bringing this up! I get the purpose of the “modern” auto-memory card generation but as a person who remembers inserting me memory cards and physically writing on the labels, I can’t tell if this is convenient or OCD annoying

Testing direct HDMI from the MiSTer PSX core into the RT4K! So far all good. No problems with the super-wide resolution (yes it automatically rescales to a 4:3 AR🤡) No drops between 240p/480i with the buffer on. MA deinterlacing works in 480i 👍

@Cruzlink2 When did you get this? Was it recent? Yaton has been going through illness/family death last I heard.

Started recapping my second Astro City MS8-29FSG from yaton and boy I am glad I did. Dried joints, butchered traces and pads on the vertical IC, can't believe this shit was working lol. I ran out of time so tomorrow I'll finish, test, and calibrate.

@MisterAddons So what happens when you plug it backward and burn these sacrificial components? What are the replacements? Does the kick harness and CHAMMA (Chinese JAMMA? 😂) stop working? I am guessing a burning smell too.

It finally happened! Someone plugged in a JAMMA hardness upside-down on #MiSTercade. But fear not! There are sacrificial components which protect the microcontroller. This mostly affects people who use CHAMMA instead of the CPS kick harness.

@RakuraiMedia the fact that you can see the inputs (in #3S) from a replay is good to expose a #cheater. the problem is that this guy is a bad example of a "cheater". Autofire is pointless, and the guy sucks, so he won't be winning any games even if he was really cheating.

@MisterAddons as long as they are NAS-grade it doesn't matter. I've tried WD Red, Seagate IronWolf, etc. etc. All still running at our datacentre and @ multiple clients with very low failure rates in my 15+ years of managed IT. Hell I've even used consumer-grade WD Black and had 1 failure.
