Did you know that "upper case" and "lower case" refer to the physical cases where printers kept the sorts?

#X65 DEV-board last inspection before completing assembly at @PCBWayOfficial Looks awesome. 🎉


Experimenting with different X65 video modes and automated conversion using converter: github.com/X65/tools/blob… It does show that this game originally used tile-based graphics.


With all the recent software development done on the Emulator, I need to remind that every X65 feature was hardware-prototyped and validated first. See the YT channel youtube.com/@X65pc - the videos there are camera-recorded or frame-grabbed off the real prototype hardware.
One of the defining features of X65 is that its memory is uniform and shared between CPU and VPU, like in the old days of 8-bit machines. This video demonstrates direct editing of RAM using debugger window and it affecting the video memory directly.
#X65 design is finalized and PCB updated for production. After updating the BOM with supplier prices, we have: mouser: $51.95 digikey: $27.42 ali: $12.26 == total: $91.63 Still below $100 !!! 🎉
#X65 DEV-board just went to production through the wonderful people at @PCBWayOfficial They even offered to sponsor the PCB manufacturing for us. I am sure they will do an awesome job, as usual. 😀
