3D Realms closes

Saturday, May 9, 2009 6:10:43 PM

3D Realms, authors of Duke Nukem and several other games is no longer. I guess that means that Duke Nukem Forever, which they claim have been under development for the last decade and a half, or something like that, will never happen. Not that anyone thought it ever would appear, considering the delays…

…for Commodore 64 games on Virtual Console, perhaps we should do the opposite, and play some modern-age games on the Commodore 64.

Good Wii News

, , ,

I have a Wii, I bought one early last year, not only because it comes with the Opera browser, but also because it is such a revolutionary gaming device that attracts all ages. Early on I heard that they were planning to introduce Commodore 64 games on the Virtual Console, and as a Commodore 64 fan and ex-user, I was thrilled.

Unfortunately, that rumour was debunked, it was a local representative from Nintendo who had misunderstood a press release. Now, however, it seems like Commodore 64 games are coming to the Wii after all. That is wonderful. Now if they could do it like the DTV and include a BASIC interpreter and keyboard interface (the Wii already supports USB keyboards, so that should be easy), this would be just like the old days. I am eagerly awaiting an interface to connect my Commodore disk drive to the Wii… ☺

  • Normalisering

    Efter ett hektiskt halvår med två flyttar och nytillskott i familjen så börjar livet så sakteliga hitta en rytm och normalisera sig. Även om vi ännu inte har kommit oss för att hänga upp en enda tavla på väggarna i det nya huset (däremot har vi fyra väggklockor) så kan man ta sig lite tid då ...

  • Testing out version control

    It often happens that after a while after having installed Windows on a machine, that you get to a point where some programs you have installed collide in such a way that you need to re-install the computer. When I installed Windows under DosBox I thought about that it would be interesting t ...

    Yesterday’s project wasnt’t completely “because it is possible”, but also to see whether I could get an almost twenty year old Windows application run. (Continues…)

  • Cold spell

    It seems like winter (finally?) has found its way here properly. This morning we had a temperature of thirteen degrees below zero, and you can really feel that in your cheeks with the kind of air we have here in Oslo. Last winter these kind of temperatures were the norm, but this winter has ...
