1. Create a problem.

2. Sell the solution.

3. Profit.

@Lacey Nope. Just arrived this summer.

@pusakat Kaboom! (it's pretty close the 2600 version, but a 2nd player can play as The Mad Bomber)

And the excellent Castle Crisis (Warlords clone, up to 4 players).

I also love all the 1-star reviews of Wii power adapters. "It won't fit my Wii U!" 🤦‍♂️

Lazyweb: I have a US Wii here in the UK, and random ancient forum posts seem to indicate that simply getting a UK power adapter should work. A local retrogaming store warns against that, and recommends a step-down converter or just buying a UK Wii (& re-buying all our games). Anyone have a concrete answer? #wii #retrogaming

@lefebvre Split screen in the Action! editor was so great.

Biblically correct Clippy.

@Recta_Pete Oh wait, they're ALSO 9px wide. Dangit

@Recta_Pete Except for the coupla lowercase letters with descenders, we could totally steal the font on the Atari 8-bit. Since they're generally 8px tall, we'd need a blank scanline between text lines. 😈

@inverseatascii It's REALLY niche! If you're bored, consider it a puzzle. If you just want the answer, I'll post it. It's REALLY REALLY niche.

Does ANYONE else get this joke? (Visual version of a joke my son made, which killed me.)

At least I finally convinced ImageMagick to do the right thing.
