Haha you & me are in the same boat lets raise sats so we both can buy gaming desktops & delve into this as a video series & have fun in the process? Maybe you can help me figure something i've been wanting to do which is to stream to nostr the games.

If your gunna copy the tilemap & make that effort why not take the next step & make it playable? If you'd like to uncover the hidden stuff we could venture together. I've just begun experiencing roms as in learning how they work & beginning to tinker with them.

Theres a site called the cutting room floor tcrf.net it's a self hosted mediawiki which is dedicated to discovering all the unused assets, debugs, & prototypes of roms. It's been around a couple of years they I believe partner sometimes with another site called thehiddenpalace hiddenpalace.org which is another mediawiki site but it's more dedicated towards finding prototypes, master source codes, & hacks for specific games.

This kinda invoked me to wanting to discover stuff in video games I played & seeing some in screenshots + videos eagered to try to see what I can access myself & understand some things. Like garbage video files being put in roms for the specific purpose of moving data to the outer layer of a cd. I use a few emulators for specific consoles. I use one that has multiple emulators called retroarch retroarch.com Almost all of them work for me. Then I use pcsx2 for ps2 because retroarch's lprs2 core which is a open source ps2 emulator won't work on my pc for some strange reason unexplained.

Interesting i'll have to look into pleroma if I can post to nostr, misskey, mastodon, & other socials from one place. Then i'll get beans in my name. That's cool to know! So you like to work on roms eh? Do you like discovering the unknown in them?

Pleroma? Interesting how does it post from there to Nostr? Does that instance create bots for every account made & mirrors your post to other networks? I'm on Nostr talking to you.

I don't think anyones done that yet. Also I need to know how did you get the blue bean in your display name? I have to add a red one now. I love mean bean machine & puyo pop.

What is this?
