1
00:00:00,711 --> 00:00:02,443
- It's retro time!

2
00:00:04,360 --> 00:00:08,870
I told you, you'd know what it is. This is multiple boxes here,

3
00:00:08,870 --> 00:00:12,860
it's actually multiple different things. So let's start with this here,

4
00:00:12,860 --> 00:00:16,470
which is the base of what all of this is going to come together from.

5
00:00:16,470 --> 00:00:21,080
This is the Terasic/Intel, actually owned by Intel,

6
00:00:21,080 --> 00:00:24,210
FPGA called the DE10-Nano.

7
00:00:24,210 --> 00:00:28,460
Why an FPGA? Well, it can be used to play video games,

8
00:00:28,460 --> 00:00:32,950
retro games in fact. Actually, this thing is kind of interesting in itself,

9
00:00:32,950 --> 00:00:36,270
it's a project called MiSTer. So we've got a starter guide here,

10
00:00:36,270 --> 00:00:40,330
and a bunch of other stuff, just throw that over there for now. We've got a power supply.

11
00:00:40,330 --> 00:00:43,730
Plus we got two USB cables,

12
00:00:43,730 --> 00:00:49,220
one is Micro, and one is Mini, there's the Mini right there, nice and chunky.

13
00:00:49,220 --> 00:00:53,380
It's like some standoffs, or feet. And the board itself.

14
00:00:53,380 --> 00:00:58,920
Now what makes FPGA special? They're kind of like processors, but not really,

15
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:05,010
they're a lot slower than most processors are, but they execute code basically on the metal,

16
00:01:05,010 --> 00:01:08,540
there's no operating system, it's for a single purpose.

17
00:01:08,540 --> 00:01:12,440
So you would use one of these for prototyping, for an ASIC,

18
00:01:12,440 --> 00:01:16,100
or, you could run retro games on them, because why not?

19
00:01:16,100 --> 00:01:19,700
This is a pretty Raspberry Pi sized device here.

20
00:01:19,700 --> 00:01:24,820
So we've got Ethernet, we've got the two USBs, actually Micro and Mini for some reason,

21
00:01:24,820 --> 00:01:29,180
and we have another USB on the back, which is also Mini, plus HDMI and our power.

22
00:01:29,180 --> 00:01:32,240
We also have GPIO, or General-Purpose IO pins.

23
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:37,600
These will be used I think, because, not only are we going to have

24
00:01:37,600 --> 00:01:42,090
something for this to go into, which is kind of the, other boxes there.

25
00:01:42,090 --> 00:01:46,550
But we should also have, I think, an expansion module to give it a little bit more RAM.

26
00:01:46,550 --> 00:01:49,570
Not a 100% sure on that, let me take a look at these other boxes,

27
00:01:49,570 --> 00:01:53,940
and see what's inside. These were sent over by Neil, from RMC-The Cave.

28
00:01:53,940 --> 00:01:58,610
So hello, Cave Dwellers. Let's see what's in this main box here,

29
00:01:58,610 --> 00:02:02,640
Oh, (Speaker hums) that's tasty looking.

30
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:06,560
This is the MiSTer multi-system. There's two parts to this,

31
00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:09,770
there's this, and there's also a chassis as well.

32
00:02:09,770 --> 00:02:13,620
This, is what we're going to be plugging this into.

33
00:02:13,620 --> 00:02:21,230
I think it goes in something like this. So we got the GPIO pins pointing down,

34
00:02:21,230 --> 00:02:24,530
and what that does, is it breaks this out into,

35
00:02:24,530 --> 00:02:29,530
SCART if you want it, Ethernet, two USBs on the back,

36
00:02:29,540 --> 00:02:33,980
VGA or DB15. I forget what this switch for,

37
00:02:33,980 --> 00:02:38,810
this I think is, just straight up audio. This is digital audio, Toslink.

38
00:02:38,810 --> 00:02:43,480
HDMI, it requires its own separate power adapter. And on the front here we've got more USB ports,

39
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:47,330
and, (Anthony laughing) this USB port here, and I think also this one.

40
00:02:47,330 --> 00:02:51,550
These two are not USB. What they're wired for, I mean, okay, they are USB,

41
00:02:51,550 --> 00:02:54,893
but what they're wired for, is something called SNAC, S-N-A-C.

42
00:02:54,893 --> 00:02:57,950
So serial native accessory connector, I think.

43
00:02:57,950 --> 00:03:04,990
What that does is, it breaks up this USB, into the native adapter for a Super Nintendo controller.

44
00:03:04,990 --> 00:03:11,900
Why would you want that? Well, it just so happens, that we can run all kinds of "emulators," on this FPGA.

45
00:03:11,900 --> 00:03:15,840
Now they're not actually emulators, they're also not actually what people seem to think they are.

46
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:19,720
We'll get into that later. This is an expansion port,

47
00:03:19,720 --> 00:03:24,100
that can be used for all kinds of different things. Like for more SNAC connectors,

48
00:03:24,100 --> 00:03:28,950
for a JAMMA harness, I think. Which is for plugging this into an arcade machine.

49
00:03:28,950 --> 00:03:33,590
There's also things like mini-modules, so if you want to run old computers,

50
00:03:33,590 --> 00:03:37,820
this can emulate old computers directly. Right now, I don't think there are any available

51
00:03:37,820 --> 00:03:41,150
that I know of. But I do know that there are some that are prototyped,

52
00:03:41,150 --> 00:03:45,140
aside from the JAMMA harness. This here,

53
00:03:45,140 --> 00:03:50,850
there's a reason why this, is kind of on this little snap tab thing on the PCB.

54
00:03:50,850 --> 00:03:56,680
There's some RAM here, there are RAM expansions you can get for these Terasic DE10s,

55
00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:00,260
and this has it built in, but if you want to use your own, you can.

56
00:04:00,260 --> 00:04:05,860
So let's move on to the next box. I'm told that Neil included some goodies for us,

57
00:04:05,860 --> 00:04:09,543
including some SNAC modules. I do like some SNACs.

58
00:04:10,970 --> 00:04:15,900
Let's see what's in here, okay. So, we have an SD card, presumably.

59
00:04:15,900 --> 00:04:21,483
Oh, wait, what? I thought he was going to preload an SD card, this is a sealed one.

60
00:04:22,390 --> 00:04:24,743
Hmm, okay, we'll see how this works out.

61
00:04:25,700 --> 00:04:31,950
And here is the chassis, or one of the chassis, because I think, the other box, includes another chassis.

62
00:04:31,950 --> 00:04:34,893
And you'll see why there are two chassis in a moment.

63
00:04:35,860 --> 00:04:41,000
Yeah, here we go. So if you live in North America, chances are you have no use,

64
00:04:41,000 --> 00:04:44,860
for the giant, very foreign connector, that is SCART.

65
00:04:44,860 --> 00:04:48,270
And in that case, you wouldn't want to use this chassis here,

66
00:04:48,270 --> 00:04:52,720
you'd probably want to use this one. So, there's this chassis, if that's you.

67
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:56,450
If you're me, and you have a bunch of SCART devices, then you might use this one,

68
00:04:56,450 --> 00:04:59,940
so you can plug a SCART cable directly down into it. It's pretty interesting,

69
00:04:59,940 --> 00:05:04,680
there's two separate layouts you can use, and in fact, this here,

70
00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:09,140
on the back of the SCART-less version, allows you to hard-wire a SCART cable into it,

71
00:05:09,140 --> 00:05:12,610
if you so choose. So you're not stuck with one or the other.

72
00:05:12,610 --> 00:05:18,480
I don't have a SCART connector to show you right now, aside from what is on this PCB.

73
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:23,330
But what that carries is basically, everything from composite video,

74
00:05:23,330 --> 00:05:26,430
to, I think in some cases, digital audio,

75
00:05:26,430 --> 00:05:30,220
as well as RGB video. Which is similar to what you would get out of a VGA port,

76
00:05:30,220 --> 00:05:34,720
and that's why there's both of these here. Let's see what's in this, this looks like SNAC modules,

77
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:38,360
so that's promising. That looks like Atari/SEGA,

78
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:42,460
this looks like original Nintendo, and I also have a Super Nintendo controller.

79
00:05:42,460 --> 00:05:45,783
Does this come out? Yes, it does. There you go.

80
00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:52,940
One thing to note, there is a little fan in here, that's for keeping the fan-less FPGA cool.

81
00:05:52,940 --> 00:05:57,800
I think there should also be, yes, there's a heat sink kit along the screws

82
00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:02,070
and stuff that I need. So, what I was going to show you, is this SNAC connector.

83
00:06:02,070 --> 00:06:04,323
You plug it in like so,

84
00:06:05,350 --> 00:06:09,570
then you can just plug in native peripherals, like this Super Nintendo controller,

85
00:06:09,570 --> 00:06:15,510
I also have a Super Nintendo mouse, that I'm going to try, with some "Mario Paint." I don't have a Super Scope, or an NES Zapper,

86
00:06:15,510 --> 00:06:18,830
or anything like that, we don't have a CRT to run them on right now either,

87
00:06:18,830 --> 00:06:22,170
but it should support those. Are there any other questions

88
00:06:22,170 --> 00:06:26,790
you have about the IO capabilities of the MiSTer multi-system, Jono?

89
00:06:26,790 --> 00:06:30,507
- [Jono] No, it's pretty much, I just wanna start seeing it.

90
00:06:30,507 --> 00:06:34,030
- You want to start seeing it? All right. Well, we're going to have to put it together first.

91
00:06:34,030 --> 00:06:37,633

00:06:58,270 --> 00:07:02,470
Fix yourself today, and learn more at that link in the description below. This block of jumpers here,

99
00:07:02,470 --> 00:07:05,620
actually controls some of what the HDMI output,

100
00:07:05,620 --> 00:07:09,340
will actually output, so that you can disable HDMI CEC,

101
00:07:09,340 --> 00:07:12,530
or you can override the display data

102
00:07:12,530 --> 00:07:16,000
so that your a capture card, for example, won't freak out

103
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:21,530
if you're putting a weird resolution that your monitor supports, but the capture card doesn't.

104
00:07:21,530 --> 00:07:24,540
So you can go ahead and switch those, however you need to.

105
00:07:24,540 --> 00:07:27,820
I don't think we'll need to switch it at all, but they're there.

106
00:07:27,820 --> 00:07:33,300
So we just slap that on there, kind of the same way we would for a Raspberry Pi.

107
00:07:33,300 --> 00:07:40,023
So the Ethernet cable goes in there, and this here USB cable, goes in here.

108
00:07:41,600 --> 00:07:45,290
It's a bit of a tight squeeze with that SCART connection.

109
00:07:45,290 --> 00:07:50,290
So the idea is that, I can then bend these around,

110
00:07:50,600 --> 00:07:55,240
and plug them directly into the DE10-Nano, like so.

111
00:07:55,240 --> 00:07:58,270
It's a little jank, (Jono laughing) but hey, it's less jank,

112
00:07:58,270 --> 00:08:04,270
than a lot of the other cases I've seen. We need to make sure that it is all aligned exact,

113
00:08:04,270 --> 00:08:07,490
and then, we can push it down.

114
00:08:07,490 --> 00:08:10,790
We're going with this black enclosure without the SCART.

115
00:08:10,790 --> 00:08:14,221
Personally, I would use the SCART, but that's just because I'm crazy.

116
00:08:14,221 --> 00:08:19,250
- [Jono] You can add it in later. - You can add it in later. Also you could just swap the case later if you wanted to,

117
00:08:19,250 --> 00:08:22,420
it's not that big a deal. Fairly high quality print, all things considered.

118
00:08:22,420 --> 00:08:26,200
Oh, actually, (Anthony laughs) I'm not sure you're supposed to be able to pet

119
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:30,160
the inside of the case like this. - [Jono] Oh dang! It didn't adhere.

120
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:34,980
- Yeah. I mean, it's not a problem, but it's something they're going to have to figure out

121
00:08:34,980 --> 00:08:38,620
for quality control. - [Jono] Can you get your own files and download them?

122
00:08:38,620 --> 00:08:42,660
- Yes, it is open source. - Ah. - So you can download and print this yourself,

123
00:08:42,660 --> 00:08:48,070
if you so choose. You also can build this PCB yourself, if you so choose.

124
00:08:48,070 --> 00:08:54,070
I'm not sure you'd want to. Come on, oh please, there we go.

125
00:08:54,070 --> 00:09:00,080
There we go, we can use these little buttons that I put in, how nice, and it's got the switch there, ah, beautiful.

126
00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:03,450
- [Jono] So is this like a little mini-console. - Yeah, basically.

127
00:09:03,450 --> 00:09:07,240
The idea is, once you close it up, you don't see any of that jank.

128
00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:12,040
The good thing about this case, is that it's all in one. So it includes that RAM expansion, it includes the cooling,

129
00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:15,230
it includes the SNAC adapter, so basically you're getting

130
00:09:15,230 --> 00:09:18,970
all the stuff you would have to source separately. - [Jono] It actually feels really soothing

131
00:09:18,970 --> 00:09:22,400
to just put this together. - Yeah, it goes together really nicely,

132
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:25,193
even though it's a little bit jank. But like, I mean,

133
00:09:26,210 --> 00:09:30,580
it's a labor of love. Wait, what am I screwing this into?

134
00:09:30,580 --> 00:09:33,273
This is not the screw hole, that I'm supposed to be using.

135
00:09:36,910 --> 00:09:40,140
(upbeat instrumental music)

136
00:09:40,140 --> 00:09:46,550
All right, all that's left is to add the feet. Oh man, if I were more attentive to detail,

137
00:09:46,550 --> 00:09:51,170
I'd probably use tweezers for these, since my fingers are giant sausages.

138
00:09:51,170 --> 00:09:55,660
And we have an assembled MiSTer FPGA, or sorry, MiSTer multi-system.

139
00:09:55,660 --> 00:09:58,720
Designed and developed by, Heber Electronics

140
00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:03,760
and RMC-The Cave. Oh yeah, just in case you were wondering,

141
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:07,080
this is about, oh, look at the curvature.

142
00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:10,960
(Jono laughing) It's almost perfect, I've got another banana right here.

143
00:10:10,960 --> 00:10:13,223
So we can kinda like,

144
00:10:14,350 --> 00:10:19,350
it's a little bit bigger than two bananas just overall.

145
00:10:19,580 --> 00:10:23,020
Yeah, scale. - [Jono] How much did we just spend on this?

146
00:10:23,020 --> 00:10:28,860
- How much did we spend on this? That's a wonderful question, $231 Canadian for that.

147
00:10:28,860 --> 00:10:32,750
That's for the FPGA itself. That's about $199.

148
00:10:32,750 --> 00:10:39,808
Retail price for the MiSTer multi-system is, £169.99.

149
00:10:39,808 --> 00:10:41,710
(Jono exclaims) So that's another 200 bucks.

150
00:10:44,100 --> 00:10:49,616
There we go, should be fine. Let's see, LTT, warning do not drop, that's a maybe.

151
00:10:49,616 --> 00:10:54,293
WASD, nice. So this fits really nicely right here.

152
00:10:55,420 --> 00:10:58,540
Nice. (Jono laughing)

153
00:10:58,540 --> 00:11:02,570
Yeah, it's pricey, it's basically the cost again, of another DE10-Nano,

154
00:11:02,570 --> 00:11:06,160
but you do get that extra RAM, which is something you normally have to pay,

155
00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:08,467
I think like, $80 or more for.

156
00:11:10,560 --> 00:11:14,500
Wait, what? What is this screwed into? What did I screw it into?

157
00:11:14,500 --> 00:11:18,370
Oh, it was the wrong one. I did mess it up.

158
00:11:18,370 --> 00:11:21,520
But how come, I don't, okay.

159
00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:25,060
- [Jono] It's okay Anthony, it should be fine. - It should be fine,

160
00:11:25,060 --> 00:11:29,630
but I want to have at least one, why did I do that? (Jono laughing)

161
00:11:29,630 --> 00:11:33,690
So what should we do first Jono. - [Jono] I want to play some games.

162
00:11:33,690 --> 00:11:35,540
- Got a couple of console games here.

163
00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:41,190
Let's try this. All right, let's load up "Super Mario World."

164
00:11:41,190 --> 00:11:46,870
You can see there, it's running at 720p. Actually I think that's a 3X scale,

165
00:11:46,870 --> 00:11:52,600
for what we're looking at here. And it's currently using the whole screen, we can actually set that, to be an integer scale,

166
00:11:52,600 --> 00:11:56,610
if we want. And what that does, is it just makes it so that the pixels aren't stretched out.

167
00:11:56,610 --> 00:12:00,683
You can also set up some scalar stuff, like you can make it look smoother,

168
00:12:00,683 --> 00:12:04,740
you can do scan lines I think, yeah, scan lines.

169
00:12:04,740 --> 00:12:08,450
Which, I mean, I kinda dig that, but it's a little bit basic.

170
00:12:08,450 --> 00:12:14,240
Delay generally is pretty good, but the keyboard is only running at 125 Hertz,

171
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:17,500
as far as its poll rate goes.

172
00:12:17,500 --> 00:12:20,930
So it's not like original hardware.

173
00:12:20,930 --> 00:12:25,930
So what is like original hardware, is the SNAC.

174
00:12:26,340 --> 00:12:29,890
So let's have ourselves a SNAC here. All right, let's see if that just works.

175
00:12:29,890 --> 00:12:35,020
Okay, so, I might have to restart the game here. I can set the serial button here,

176
00:12:35,020 --> 00:12:39,280
or serial function to SNAC, and what that lets me do. (Anthony exclaiming)

177
00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,700
Now I'm using an actual Super Nintendo controller on this

178
00:12:42,700 --> 00:12:46,830
with original delay. The only lag that I'm getting here,

179
00:12:46,830 --> 00:12:51,751
is the lag that I'm getting from the display. Everything is instantaneous.

180
00:12:51,751 --> 00:12:56,010
- [Jono] If we had a 360 Hertz monitor would that be faster?

181
00:12:56,010 --> 00:12:59,490
- I mean, it all depends, it's not going to be running at 360 Hertz,

182
00:12:59,490 --> 00:13:04,180
but if monitor's delay is lower, then that would definitely help.

183
00:13:04,180 --> 00:13:08,770
This is an older monitor, so it's not the fastest thing in the world.

184
00:13:08,770 --> 00:13:12,960
It's totally fine. But yeah, the Super Nintendo controller totally works.

185
00:13:12,960 --> 00:13:18,306
I wonder though, I have a Super Nintendo mouse, you want to set up some "Mario Paint"?

186
00:13:18,306 --> 00:13:23,263
(Anthony and Jono cheering) Oh yeah. But yeah, if I were to do a,

187
00:13:24,100 --> 00:13:27,593
L-T-T.

188
00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:33,610
I'm not using the official mouse pad. - [Jono] There's an official mousepad?

189
00:13:33,610 --> 00:13:37,200
- Oh yeah. - Oh. (Jono laughing) I didn't know.

190
00:13:37,200 --> 00:13:40,963
- I feel like there's a little bit of delay actually,

191
00:13:43,390 --> 00:13:46,530
is it angle snapping or something? I feel like, maybe this is how it works

192
00:13:46,530 --> 00:13:49,673
in the original as well. It's been a hot minute,

193
00:13:51,680 --> 00:13:56,620
since I've done anything, but see that? When I click, it stops the movement.

194
00:13:56,620 --> 00:14:01,580
I don't remember that happening in the original cartridge.

195
00:14:01,580 --> 00:14:07,930
I think I'm done with Super Nintendo for now. First, I would like to try my SEGA Genesis controller,

196
00:14:07,930 --> 00:14:11,700
it's just a six button controller. Cable is very frayed, because as a kid,

197
00:14:11,700 --> 00:14:16,840
I didn't tie up cables like this. I just wrapped it around the controller like this,

198
00:14:16,840 --> 00:14:22,250
as tightly as possible, which is actually bad for controllers.

199
00:14:22,250 --> 00:14:27,680
One thing to note, you cannot use a SNAC, on incompatible hardware.

200
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:33,433
So I can't use a Genesis six button controller, at least not via a SNAC, to play Super Nintendo games.

201
00:14:34,443 --> 00:14:37,742
(speaking faintly) Yes.

202
00:14:37,742 --> 00:14:40,760
(indistinct) controller or anything like that, like an Xbox controller,

203
00:14:40,760 --> 00:14:45,500
you can pair that, and it'll be fine. It's kind of a bad version of "After Burner,"

204
00:14:45,500 --> 00:14:48,860
if I'm being honest. - [Jono] It looks good.

205
00:14:48,860 --> 00:14:52,200
- It looks good, it's not as good as the arcade version though.

206
00:14:52,200 --> 00:14:59,570
All right, well, there's another reason why, I have the Genesis version of "After Burner" on there.

207
00:14:59,570 --> 00:15:04,793
And the reason, is this. Analog joy, there it is, start.

208
00:15:07,488 --> 00:15:10,920
That's really gratifying. And this is what you can do with a SNAC.

209
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:14,420
They have SNACs for the TurboGrafix 16, the NES,

210
00:15:14,420 --> 00:15:20,290
the SEGA Genesis, and the Super Nintendo. They basically work with every peripheral.

211
00:15:20,290 --> 00:15:26,350
I don't think that there's a peripheral that it wouldn't work with, because it's just passing the raw data through to the core.

212
00:15:26,350 --> 00:15:29,970
Now those cores, they are basically emulators,

213
00:15:29,970 --> 00:15:34,060
but they're running on the FPGA itself, so there's no delay.

214
00:15:34,060 --> 00:15:39,470
That's kind of the advantage you get, with the FPGA. Arcade, a whole bunch of arcade games.

215
00:15:39,470 --> 00:15:44,010
Computers, AcornAtom, a bunch that I haven't heard of, like the AliceMC10,

216
00:15:44,010 --> 00:15:48,470
Apple-1, Apple-2, Atari800, AtariSt, BBCMicro,

217
00:15:48,470 --> 00:15:52,150
Commodore64, Color Computer,

218
00:15:52,150 --> 00:15:55,900
a couple of others that I've never heard of, I think this might be Polish.

219
00:15:55,900 --> 00:16:00,200
And for consoles we got, all the Atari,

220
00:16:00,200 --> 00:16:03,380
except for the Jaguar. Yeah, no Jaguar.

221
00:16:03,380 --> 00:16:08,230
GBA, ColecoVision, NES, WonderSwan.

222
00:16:08,230 --> 00:16:11,620
Yeah, so everything up to the 16 bit generation.

223
00:16:11,620 --> 00:16:15,290
And that's the MiSTer FPGA, MiSTer multi-system.

224
00:16:15,290 --> 00:16:18,860
The MiSTer multi-system, really brings the entire experience together.

225
00:16:18,860 --> 00:16:22,430
I think if I just had that FPGA sitting on my desk

226
00:16:22,430 --> 00:16:25,690
doing this, it would feel pretty rad,

227
00:16:25,690 --> 00:16:30,040
like, "Oh wow, I'm a hacker man." But at the same time, it's not something that I would want,

228
00:16:30,040 --> 00:16:34,450
sitting on my entertainment center. This is something that I could see myself wanting

229
00:16:34,450 --> 00:16:40,440
on my entertainment center. This is a very coherent, cohesive piece of kit.

230
00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,490
And dare I say, it's nice. Is it worth it?

231
00:16:43,490 --> 00:16:47,290
If you're the kind of person who's like, "I don't care, I just want to play the games."

232
00:16:47,290 --> 00:16:51,440
Then probably not. The NES Mini, or even a Raspberry Pi with

233
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:57,480
emulation station on it, would probably be more than enough. For people who want the original experiences,

234
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:02,510
people who want to see what it was like to use these weird controllers,

235
00:17:02,510 --> 00:17:06,850
to see what it was like to see these games running on original monitors,

236
00:17:06,850 --> 00:17:10,510
or discover new things, that they never thought that they would

237
00:17:10,510 --> 00:17:13,890
be interested in before. Then I think it's a really great platform.

238
00:17:13,890 --> 00:17:17,620
Anyway, if you thought this was a rather nice "ShortCircuit,"

239
00:17:17,620 --> 00:17:21,500
maybe you want to get subscribed, so you see others like this one.

240
00:17:21,500 --> 00:17:25,830
Maybe you want to check out, RetroTink, or the OSSC,

241
00:17:25,830 --> 00:17:28,283
if you want to do some more retro time.

242
00:17:29,950 --> 00:17:34,310
Or, you could not do that, and check out something else like,

243
00:17:34,310 --> 00:17:37,043
Alex does cars sometimes, it's weird.
