Love Galaga - watched you flub up the stage 11 challenge stage and I could totally relate. That was the one that would gives me fits to this day.

Ugh, that one bugs me. I always seem to do terrible on that challenge. Gotta study the patterns more...

The stage 13 where you died waiting to recover your ship.... major bummer. When it happened again on 14? LOL!

Lol what a FAIL! Double fail. I was so pissed about those ones. I really need to be more mindful of the enemies that circle back. Having that happen twice was so tragic!

No Galaxian for GILAXIAN? I don't blame you, it hasn't aged well.

Yeah it’s tough to play the slow pace of Galaxian. I definitely prefer Galaga, but Gilaga isn’t as cool a name as Gillaxian.

Last night I did an impromptu stream, probably the last one for a few weeks since we have a newborn on the way. Played some Cave shoot-em-ups for the first time and had a blast. Notable games I’m going to play more of: Raiden Fighters Series, Ketsui, and Muchi Pork.

Thanks for those who dropped by. I’ll let you all know when my next stream will be, but I’m thinking at least 2-3 weeks away, or whenever we have our routine nailed down and I can find a good time slot to do so.

Good stream last night.... lots of bullet hell goodness and slightly off topic chat. Something I said in error for anyone here who was in chat... it's Outrun 2 not C2C that has the bonus stages... Sorry about that.

opt2not · « **Reply #83 on:** July 08, 2020, 07:58:03 pm »

I lied. I’m going to do another impromptu stream in 10 mins!

Sega System 16B Multi PCB!

Withdrawal is a ---smurfette---.

nexusmtz · « **Reply #86 on:** August 06, 2020, 01:46:41 pm »

Yes, that was apparently a factor. Hope all is well!

opt2not · « **Reply #87 on:** August 06, 2020, 02:37:34 pm »

Soon, friends!

I'm thinking maybe I'll be able to start back up next week. I just gotta figure out if I can still do the same time.

Mike A · « **Reply #88 on:** August 06, 2020, 02:40:23 pm »

Yeah. your daughter is plenty old enough to baby sit your son for a few hours a week. Stop being so selfish.

Howard_Casto · « **Reply #89 on:** August 06, 2020, 07:09:20 pm »

Personally I like the later streams, but I'm an insomniac half the time and there's nothing on that late at night.

opt2not · « **Reply #90 on:** August 11, 2020, 10:03:19 pm »

Ok this Thursday, I'm back! 6pm PST - the return to the stream. Gonna do some R-type Leo, and probably some Sega System 16B games. See you then!

@Howard, yeah I'd like to do another stream in the evenings. Probably when our newborn is sleeping in his own room. Maybe in a few months or so. We'll see. But I'd like to do a nightime console-centric stream.

Mike A · « **Reply #91 on:** August 11, 2020, 10:39:52 pm »

Sailor Jerry says he is glad you are back.

I'm planning on doing another Robotron Stream this week. Figured I'm about due. Not a 10 million run though, I don't have enough time to do that. I'm just going to try to get as much points as I can in the 1.5 hours I have.

pbj · « **Reply #93 on:** August 17, 2020, 04:34:48 pm »

I watched some of his 4am art stream because my bladder said it was time to wake up. If you ever thought being an artist was glamorous and not real work, you'll quickly be dispelled of that notion.

Howard_Casto · « **Reply #94 on:** August 17, 2020, 06:11:17 pm »

Yeah art is hard.

Missed both streams.... just been busy. I'll try to catch the next one.

Mike A · « **Reply #95 on:** August 17, 2020, 06:23:45 pm »

I watched this morning from work. It was pleasantly distracting.

opt2not · « **Reply #96 on:** August 17, 2020, 06:34:37 pm »

Yeah i forgot to mention I've been doing a Text Chat only Art Stream at night while I'm up to 3am for my newborn son's night time feeds. It's not really a "show", like my regular stream, just something casual for people to look in on while I'm working.

I've been falling behind on my art commissions, so I've gotta put in a bunch of hours to make deadlines promised. Figured while I'm doing it, people can drop by and see what I'm up to.

I usually start around 11am'ish PST - 3am.

I'm going to be playing Die Hard Arcade on real hardware today. Sega STV goooo!

So I figured I should finally start-up my discord channel for the stream.

https://discord.gg/g6TCHc

You guys are invited to join me.

Howard_Casto · « **Reply #100 on:** September 05, 2020, 05:28:14 pm »

Glad you posted that..... turns out my Discord account has been foo-barred since I upgraded to the new pc. I mean who reads glaring orange warnings at the top of a page anyway?

Gilrock · « **Reply #101 on:** September 08, 2020, 03:07:41 pm »

Funny I was watching some Clash of Clans videos this weekend and they kept mentioning Discord servers and I'm like wtf is that. Then I see you mention it so I had to google it. I guess it appears to be the latest voice chat program. Years ago I remember everyone used TeamSpeak and then it was Ventrillo or maybe I got it backwards.

opt2not · « **Reply #102 on:** September 08, 2020, 05:27:22 pm »

Yeah you can use it for voice. But I never do

. It’s great for group texting and posting images/videos/links.

Howard_Casto · « **Reply #103 on:** September 08, 2020, 08:32:30 pm »

Yeah it's my replacement for IRC chat. I rarely use it though..... my free time seems to be out of sync with everybody elses' or something.

pbj · « **Reply #104 on:** September 08, 2020, 10:18:11 pm »

Yeah, reminds me a lot of IRC, down to the people that take it very, very seriously.

Also Slack.

opt2not · « **Reply #105 on:** September 09, 2020, 06:06:39 pm »

Today I got my MiSTer connected to my arcade cabinet, so I'm going to do a small run-down of it on tomorrow's stream. Probably play mostly CPS1 games, but also jump around to some classics and a couple consoles.

6PM PST

Mike A · « **Reply #106 on:** September 17, 2020, 11:04:13 am »

Lifeforce with a steering wheel.

Make it so.

Howard_Casto · « **Reply #107 on:** September 17, 2020, 02:39:03 pm »

Lifeforce on kinect....

opt2not · « **Reply #108 on:** September 17, 2020, 03:00:08 pm »

I'll look into that.

Today's stream is going to be a special one. I've been in the lab, putting in work on the SNES version of U.N. Squadron. I've been able to consistently beat the game without continuing, but I'd love to do it on-stream.

So if you all wanna see a 1cc attempt of this awesome shmup, live, come by the stream today. It'll either be a great success, or a great disappointment. either way it'll be entertaining.

Watched the 1cc take down. Very nice! You got a newborn and a couple hours to yourself? #WINNING

Thanks Lew. It was a lot of fun to do it live. I did have a little trouble on the battleship stage, but I was able to fight through it.
Actually, it was a blast learning and practicing this game too, leading up to the 1cc. I think I'm going to take-on another game now, I'm hooked on that 1cc high!

Anyone else interested in watching me take down this awesome game, here's the VOD:

Yeah I'm usually up late anyways (night owl) that I get a few hours a night to myself when everyone's asleep. With our newborn, I usually stay up for his late-night feedings, and try to let the wife sleep as long as she can. Being a milk factory, and taking care of a newborn and toddler during the day while I'm working is really draining on her. So it works out. I get time to myself at night, she gets time to rest.
The trade-off is I'm exhausted in the morning. Luckily I get to sleep till 9:30am, and I don't have to start work till 10am. I love working from home. Roll out of bed, and into my office chair for my morning meetings.

opt2not · « **Reply #111 on:** September 23, 2020, 02:12:30 pm »

Tomorrow’s stream is going to be all Sega Naomi games running off real hardware.
Gonna be a fun one. Fighters, shmups, and maybe a couple sports titles.

Come by and hang out!

Mike A · « **Reply #112 on:** September 23, 2020, 02:38:55 pm »

cool. that will be fun.

No ---smurfing--- golf.

opt2not · « **Reply #113 on:** September 23, 2020, 05:04:24 pm »

If only I had a Virtua Golf control panel...

Mike A · « **Reply #114 on:** September 23, 2020, 05:55:50 pm »

If you get that you have to play life force with it.

pbj · « **Reply #115 on:** September 23, 2020, 09:54:23 pm »

He couldn’t be any worse with it.

Discord is great if you want to listen to pbj ramble all day.

Howard_Casto · « **Reply #116 on:** September 23, 2020, 11:05:55 pm »

You know we kept telling you and Mike to get a room........ Of course I'm in there a lot too.... kinky

opt2not · « **Reply #117 on:** October 01, 2020, 12:20:46 am »

Tomorrow I’ll be doing some more Naomi games on stream. Come hang out!

Nice.

I had a great time last week. Everybody should check this out. I’m still laughing at some of the comments y’all made.

Sorry I can’t be there this week. I need to see a man about a laptop. Mike A, that is not a euphemism for whatever you’re thinking!
