Special thanks to @TheRetroMartin, a great volunteer at our museum who donated a SAROO cartridge to allow a choice of games for visitors to try on our Sega Saturn, without the need to swap CDs! #volunteering
Unless you were in Japan, Portugal or some other parts of Europe where it outdid the N64 and rivalled the Playstation much more! Glad to see it's out on display now. Dibbs on playing Daytona!
Come and try the Sega Saturn, our latest hands-on machine! 🕹️ Released in Japan in 1994, and the rest of the world in 1995, it was a fifth generation video games console that cost £399.99. It failed to compete against the Sony Playstation and the Nintendo 64.

To the World's Greatest 'Hacker'! Do you know anything about this item? Did you make it or perhaps present it to Kevin Mitnick? Found in a house clearance warehouse its new owner would love to know more about it. youtube.com/watch?v=pcGHSI… #cybersecurity #hacker #hackernews #history

The Museum of Computing would like to thank @shortcircuit104 for organising the amazing RetroFest event in our home town of Swindon. It was a pleasure to collaborate with them and we met so many wonderful visitors and exhibitors. Looking forward to supporting next year's event!
RetroFest has an 80s bedroom with a choice of computers to pose with. Our volunteers have chosen their favourite computer. Do you agree or would you have chosen differently from the table. #retro #computer #festival
Fantastic day at RetroFest! Our museum stand was busy with visitors trying our exhibits, including our 90s dialup internet PC and the Tektronix 4052 vector graphics workstation from 1978. Some tickets still left for Sunday! See you all again tomorrow! retrofest.uk/tickets.php
