Re: My Retro 8-Bit Journey & CreatiVision re-Creation & Console Add-ons

Not forget that there is still a cool Creativision Only Clone. That is a good point! I will park my thought of creating a single board version of my CreatiVision re-Creation, on the basis it has already been done.

Re: My Retro 8-Bit Journey & CreatiVision re-Creation & Console Add-ons

Thanks for the info. I assumed the cost would be a little lower, maybe in the range of AU$150 total. However, still this is less than most untested/faulty CreatiVisions you would find on sale on Ebay. And more robust and reliable! Yes, there is certainly more cost to a new & flexible multi-card sys...

Re: My Retro 8-Bit Journey & CreatiVision re-Creation & Console Add-ons

What would be the total cost for a person that wishes to build the MECB? That's actually a very good question, that I haven't worked out yet. This is because the MECB modular design was primarily intended for general retro 8-bit experimentation, therefore I'd approached my CreatiVision re-creation ...

The quickest way to understand the changes would be to just skim the Blog post: 6502 CreatiVision re-Creation (Part 3) - Blog For each of my videos I also create a blog post, for those who prefer to read instead of watch. :) Very...

The perfectionist in me is now happy to call the CreatiVision Controller part of my project complete! Needless to say, I'm pretty proud and excited about my v2.0 changes! Part 3 can ...
