Thanks to everyone who took some time out of their @retrogamingexpo.bsky.social weekend to come and hang out! I think we had a great turn out, engaging conversations, and even came together to solve some equipment hiccups! πŸ˜…

We've never been to @magfest.org (in our defense, it's almost 3000 miles away), but we hope to change that in 2026!

Going a bit grass roots here: who'd like to see some technical #NES content at #prge this year for the 40th anniversary? #homebrew panels, #nesdev meetups, something even cooler?! Let's show them there's #indiegame interest out there and make this happen!

My moment of nostalgia is here - could not resist this beautiful cartridge from @sleepybitsgames.bsky.social at #cax2025! If you’re here, stop by their booth on the second floor and try out their games! Check out the hidden market in the demo, can’t wait to try the jambalaya when it’s ready!
