Here's an interview with the person who's responsible for all of our NES' to finally output good video: Tim Worthington. As the creator of the NESRGB, 2600RGB and the first to release an N64RGB, he's changed the experience of almost everyone in the retro gaming scene! I was thrilled to have him over and talk with him about everything he's done!

A few days ago, I spoke to Jose Tejada aka Jotego, the creator of some pretty amazing FPGA cores. It was a really fun chat, with a mix of tech talk and general conversation. I think anyone who's a fan of MiSTer, FPGA's, or just retro gaming in general might really enjoy this one!
