    A couple of notes:

    1. I currently have 3 V6Z80Ps ready for dispatch if interested see this page.

    2. If you find anything on this site useful, want to say thanks and need to shop at Amazon UK
    then if you go there via this link I will receive a small referral payment when you buy something (it won’t affect the price). Cheers!

  • A Plug for The “Bedrooms to Billions” documentary on kickstarter

    Posted on April 7th, 2013 Phil

    This awesome sounding documentary  project had somehow escaped my attention until quite recently. The aim is to tell the story of the birth of the UK video games industry, through interviews with the big names from the start of it all (they’ve even tracked down Matthew Smith of Manic Miner / JSW fame!) Check it out.

  • Pentagon emulation on the V6Z80P

    Posted on November 2nd, 2012 Phil

    Alessandro Dorigatti has worked his magic once again and we now have cycle-perfect Pentagon 128 emulation on the V6Z80P.  The Pentagon is/was a Russian variation of the Spectrum hardware, most notably it is completely free of bus contention which enables some neat effects. Here’s a video cap of it in action (as usual, youtube’s compression has messed things up a tad..)


    EDIT 25-11-2012:  More V6Z80Ps will be available soon – to register your interest, see this page.
