    Awesome video! Great effort in getting your computer to work with XP and your Voodoo2. I recently acquired a Voodoo2 12MB and I need a refresher. The Voodoo 2 is not a standalone graphics card right? It's a 3D accelerator that works in tandem with an other video card? Thanks in advance

    • @RetroGamingNook
      @RetroGamingNook 27 днів тому

      Correct, you need a primary GPU. You may need a different set of drivers depending on the card model and OS (maybe not). It could take some trial and error... It really helps to have that little Donut program, or one like it to easily test if your Voodoo card is working. Make sure you scan your drivers and downloads from any site before using them. I use VirusTotal online. Good luck!

    This game is on the Atari Game Station Pro, which I purchased at Target, last year during the early part of the fall season. It's too bad that the system doesn't have another one of Kaplan's creations, "Kaboom". Especially being that the game station pro actually has a paddle feature, alongside the joystick. Have you ever played "Demons to Diamonds"..? That's one of the games on the game station pro. It's one of my favorite 2600 games built onto the Game Station Pro. The GSP also features games from the 5200 and 7800, along with various old school arcade games. And it also actually has some NES and Sega Genesis games built into it.

    Great stuff here! I enjoy your insights and the connection you bring to your memories of when you were a young person. I was an avid arcade game player at this time as well. I had an Atari back then and agree that most of these games you showed here did a pretty good job of bringing the arcade experience home, considering what they had to work with back than. That all changed when the colecovision came out shortly after, as I think the colecovision did a fantastic job of porting arcade games. There is a roller controller accessory for the Atari, which I have never tried out. I do have the roller controller for the colecovision and it works pretty good. Keep up the good work!

      Thanks. I was dying to get a ColecoVision, but my dad got a Color Computer.. oh well. But I was living near the malls and Service Merchandise had one set up. Played plenty of Donkey Kong and Pepper II on it.
