#PicoGUS is now an ODE! I've just released firmware v3.0.0, which adds Panasonic CD-ROM drive emulation. Put some ISOs or BIN/CUE files on a USB stick, plug it into your PicoGUS, and you've got a virtual CD-ROM drive that works in DOS and Windows 9x and supports CD audio. github.com/polpo/picogu...

This weekend I’m polishing up CDROM emulation on PicoGUS and verified that it works in Windows 98. Once I figure out a nice way to switch disc images and make a utility for it I will release a new firmware version.

My Top 64 #C64 Clones No. 3

Pitstop 2

Pitstop 2 took the Pole Position premise and shifted the genre up a couple of gears. Its split-screen head-to-head action was utterly mind-blowing in 1984, and it didn’t just look stunning; it played brilliantly too, especially when competing against a friend.

Recently obtained an OSSC Pro to do some Retro PC game capture. Only had it for a little while, but so far I am impressed. Lots of more testing left to do.

Last night I experimented with CDROM emulation on PicoGUS using iso or bin/cue on a USB stick, using code from yyzkevin. I first thought RP2040’s USB would be too slow but after seeing the Pico ODE for 3DO that emulates the same MKE interface, I have newfound confidence that it will be fast enough.

I'm finally listening to ESFM on real hardware and I'm absolutely blown away. The FM synthesis sounds so awesome!

I was always underwhelmed with the sound of Yamaha OPL2/3's FM synthesis... I can't believe this was lurking inside all these ESS AudioDrive chips the whole time. Wow!
