Retro

We love consoles, long-forgotten games and timeless classics. Whether Nintendo, Atari, or arcade, video game history is our passion.

Case Modding

Throwing away broken consoles? Never! We use discarded cases to give consoles a new life as emulation PCs. We build old console parts into living room-ready devices or add new features as case mods.

Emulation

Play classics with enhanced graphics on PC, play games on consoles they weren’t intended for, digitizing our own game collection, and use it with a self-built emulator console. We show you how it’s done in our projects.

Want to know more about the origins of our blog? We’d love to tell you!

Here you can find our “Hello World”

Logos as tribute

To demonstrate our connection to video games and their creators, we’re not just displaying a logo, but with every page visit, “Video Game Saturday” appears in the form of a different classic. This is our way of saying thank you. Thank you for the many hours of fun and entertainment.

We’ll gradually add more creations, always with information about the original game.

Enjoy!

  • passionate gamers

    It must be our genes. Even our (great-)grandfather loved his Game Boy, and our DNA is also fully programmed for video games. Whenever we can, we devote ourselves to the topic of video games. If only it were always Saturday…

  • creative minds

    We’re bursting with creativity and would love to share it with you. Let our crafts and programming experiments entertain and inspire you.

  • fascinated by Retro

    Sure, the new blockbuster games are awesome and a ton of fun. BUT the old classics simply have their charm and didn’t need hundreds of millions of euros and actors to be a hit. And it’s precisely this simplicity that makes them so special: pure gaming fun without unnecessary bling.

  • Nintendo Addicted

    We LOVE Nintendo and anything even remotely related to it. Sure, we love video games in general, but Nintendo has had a particularly strong impact on us. Charming characters, loving design, consistently high quality, and, above all, fun together as a family.

unsere Lieblingsprojekte

In diesem Projekt haben wir ein totes N64 mit Hilfe eines Raspberry Pi zu neuem Leben erweckt und gleich ein paar Änderungen am Design vorgenommen. Wichtig war uns allerdings, dass das Gehäuse an sich nicht verändert wird. Alle Funktionen und Features sollten erhalten bleiben.

In einem Zufallsfund haben wir einen defekten Gamecube ergattern können. Da die Umwandlung unseres N64 viel Spaß gebracht hat, haben wir erneut eine verlorene Konsole mit neuer Seele wiederbelebt…

Ein weiterer Fund bei Ebay hat unser Interesse geweckt, ein altes N64 Backup Tool – der Doctor V64. Völlig lediert und ohne jegliches Zubehör wurde er als Defekt verkauft. Wir wollten wissen, ob wir ihm neues Leben einhauchen können…

Heute sind wir kaum von Fortnite weg zu locken, aber damals in meiner Jugend gab es einen Shooter, der uns ebenso Stunden vor die Röhre gefesselt hat – GoldenEye. Eines hat mich aber immer gestört, der englische Text. Heute deutschen wir das Spiel ein…
