Stay far, far away from Unico.
I took a gamble on their Nova Blast cabinet and experienced significant delays, a damaged product, poor compatibility, terrible communication, and borderline-incompetent support.
Also watch out for their shills on social media.
Unico is back with more borderline snake oil.
This time with their Traveller 10 inch PVM inspired monitor.
Absolutely nowhere in the Kickstarter (that I can find) do they give ANY details or specs of anything. And literally if you look that Kickstarter listing up and down it states the same handful of things multiple times and has a boatload of images and animated gifs. It's a candy coated hollow shell of information. Zero value. No scaler details, no panel specs...nothing.
Upon first glance you might be tempted to think it uses the 10 inch iPad Retina display like many of the enthusiast 10 inch monitors use. I don't think that's the case as I saw a comment in a YT video absolutely panning the unit stating that Unico said it was 1280x960. And the reviewer was having issues with even that as WIndows wanted to treat it as 1080p 30fps panel - lol.
After my experience with their Phoenix 26 inch monitor: Hard pass. 👎
Save your money.

A year later, I wanted to see if I could complete the recommended path in Paprium's Original mode using the Mega EverDrive Pro w/latest firmware. Recurring game-breaking bug happens in the Golden of Seas level. You can hear a character trying to be placed on screen but it never appears, preventing progression. Strangely, I encounter fewer game-breaking bugs using MEDP and the Mega Sg than I do with original hardware.
I'd still recommend avoiding this method to play the game until more bugs are ironed out.
Received the @TakiUdon_ SuperStation One yesterday. This is my first MiSTer device of any kind. Excited to jump into it and hoping the learning curve isn't as bad as I've heard. This thing was super well packaged and is very well made.
It has been 973 days since pre-orders went up for the Neo Geo version of Final Vendetta.
It has been 182 days since the last formal update which stated "...we didn’t quite make Q2, but please know that we aren’t far away now."
It's time for an update and a firm release date.
Final Vendetta turns one year old today, and what better way to celebrate than by announcing that pre-orders for the Neo Geo AES and MVS versions are now open! 🥳 #finalvendetta #NeoGeo
The @trfightstick Octopus holy trinity is complete. These are some of the best arcade sticks I've ever used. They are unmatched from a compatibility standpoint and well worth the price. The few issues I've run into have been handled with care

I bet you that your Grandmama's motorized scooter runs faster than this Neo Geo CD system. Well forget all of that! With the NeoCD SD Loader installed on the console, you'll not only have SD card solution to access the entire library, loading times are much faster too! FRAM chip also installed.
Oh yeah, digging the gold on the @analogue 3D much more than white. Almost makes up for missing out on the Toys 'R Us gold N64 back in the day.
Paprium and the Grand Stick III were released 5 years ago today. Lastingly marred by controversy, Paprium remains one of the most technically ambitious Genesis/Mega Drive games and a fantastic beat 'em up.

Sadly, my mother has passed and I cannot afford to lay her to rest the way she deserves. So I am asking if you have it in your heart to donate to help, any amount and I mean any amount no matter how small truly helps. Please share if you can. ❤️🥹

Never imagined I'd be able to see Oasis live. Seats were far back, and a guy next to us kept screaming the whole show, but still very thankful to have seen the band. Fantastic show. This tour has the perfect setlist. Loudest concert I've ever been to 🤘
Earthion is one of the best shmups I've played and one of the best games on Genesis. It's sad there's no official way to play this on original hardware currently, yet it's possible. Feels dirty, but found a way to play on my childhood Genesis. Will end up buying it multiple times
