Retro Gaming Heaven, Bricked Carts and the Music of Richard Joseph, with Andy Caomhanach

In a packed episode, we talk to IT lecturer and media commentator Andy Caomhanach about his love of retro gaming, which goes back to his Commodore 64 days and the Light Fantastic Pack. He describes how is love of computing and gaming led to the discovery of the Evercade platform and what makes it so special.  We also tackle the thorny issue of cart failures, which has come up on various groups and forums, in an attempt to get to the bottom of why they might be happening, whether we should be worried and what gamers can do about it.  Finally, as always, we have the Desert Island Carts feature and Andy explains his love of retro gaming music, especially from Richard Joseph.    🔗 Links: X / Twitter - @andycaomhanach LinkedIn - @andycaomhanach University of Galway - www.universityofgalway.ie Andy on RTE - www.rte.ie   🎵 Music  Neon Gaming, by Dope Stuff Desert Island Disc theme tune, by Eric Coates and his orchestra The Chaos Engine (1993) World 2 music ('The Workshops') by Richard Joseph
