I've recently got quite nostalgic for the early 90's era of PCs. I am in the process of putting together a Windows 3.11/MS-DOS based 486 PC to explore games and software from that era. Here's a tour of my 486 build so far.

We thought you would like to see a video of the behind-the-scenes work from the past few months regarding the new THEC64 Microswitch joystick and the full-size THEC64 keyboard. A lot of effort has gone into making both as close as practical to the original hardware we all loved back in the 80s. A video can only show so much, but lots of progress was made on both fronts and hopefully that comes across here.

Note from Nighthawk.NZ: I am looking forward to this product to be released here in NZ in December. However I won't be buying one straight away, I will wait a bit to see if the updates fix the expected issues that normally happen...
