This one is a somewhat long read from a couple years ago that I don't currently have time for, but I believe it's interesting enough to be share-worthy for anybody that may have missed it! https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2018-02-09-the-retro-gaming-industry-could-be-killing-video-game-preservation

One over the other, book wins by a billion miles! I thought Ender's Game was average at best, perhaps I should get the audio book.

Well, as a huge Star Wars fan, I suppose it speaks volumes as to my opinion of Disney that I never bothered seeing IX. This article serves to confirm I didn't miss anything? https://www.forbes.com/sites/scottmendelson/2020/02/19/the-damage-done-to-star-wars-by-rise-of-skywalker-cant-be-undone/#19f410842dff I actually know some people who liked it, but based on the first two Disney attempts, I didn't bother!

Really looks super nice, I bet it plays fantastically! I appreciate the time and effort put forth to photograph and document your upgrades in order to share with all of us

Love the do! Let's put a happy little tree right here, to cast a nice afternoon shadow on this Out Run cabinet.

True, I hope that I'm wrong, but it's difficult to deny that this one didn't set itself up well for a sequel. Who knows, perhaps that's a good thing!

I hate to say it, but this will most likely be a huge disappointment given the expectations and end up being little more than a money grab!

Happy Birthday!

So it's a complete front-end or just a CP app? On a side note, it's good to see you popping in and out more frequently! <edit> the download link just hung forever for me and never did anything, but works now.

True, but it's as likely as the owner of Crazy Otto suddenly caving and doing something that has long been proclaimed that would never happen. It's my opinion that "WHEN and IF" this ever happens, it won't be until after George has passed away. There's too much money on the table for it not to happen at some point, and this would blow passed the 2004 DVD release sales IMO. I'll not purchase another copy myself, well not until they release the theatrical versions properly anyway.

Well I did what I should have done first, and checked his forums. Seems you would be best served currently by giving CPW a go. http://magoarcade.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=18

You will likely never see these the way you remember or long for. Restoration previous to the 1997 theatrical re-release: http://fd.noneinc.com/secrethistoryofstarwarscom/secrethistoryofstarwars.com/savingstarwars.html NY Times story of restorations including Star Wars 2005 DVD release: https://www.nytimes.com/2004/04/18/movies/film-600-macs-4000-lines-one-giant-leap-for-dvd-s.html

Has compatibility with 64 bit versions been tested with this? It's being discussed in another thread and would be helpful to know if perhaps you have tried it already. Thanks!

I had actually thought of stigzler's app too, but man, has it been five years already since that was released? Wow!

That would be an interesting take, though I think he absolutely must listen to the audio book at some point. It was hard to turn it off for me, I binge listened.

I've got that Star Wars VHS set too, but it's painful to watch VHS after being spoiled by even upscaled DVD's. TRON looked great in the theater, I can see where the vibrant colors would have lent themselves to CRT type "glow". I'll buy them both if they release 4k versions

Did you figure this out? If so, what did you do? Thanks!

There is rumor to be a 4k release that is so far unreleased that addresses this. http://www.plan8.tv/201911230032/tron-legacy-remastered-to-4k-uhd-and-with-improved-de-aging-cgi/

Give this a look:: http://retro-replay.com/how-to-set-up-cp-wizard/

Yeah, take that you sequel 1st watchers!

The original Tron would seem real campy by today's standards, but it was quite the eye candy for the day. Even years later inspirations of it appeared n several movies, perhaps some of Lawnmower man had the most striking resemblance, IMO.

Heads up, tomorrow is the day people. https://www.laptopmag.com/news/you-have-24-hours-to-get-a-total-war-saga-troy-for-free-here-is-how
