Here's what RF looks like in my storage area in the burbs that doesn't even get cell signals (so no interference) vs the same exact TV, console, RF adapter AC adapter and game in NYC. If you don't live in a crowded area and have a decent TV, RF can look exactly like composite video!

I recently sat down with Yahel from Wrestling with Gaming to catch up on our latest videos, how our editing methods have evolved, YouTube drama and lots, lots more. I wouldn't call this an "interview" like we did last time, more of just a freeform, "podcast conversation". If you're interested, 'slide your barstool over' and come join us for 'drinks'!

I just finished overhauling the entire Raspberry Pi section of the website and put together a short video that sums up the basics of what most people would need to know. I tried to approach the video both as a beginner introduction to the RPi gaming scene and a refresher for people who've been out of the loop. Detailed information, including links to hardware and software (config.txt) configurations are all available here: https://www.retrorgb.com/rpi240p.html
I've been 240p gaming on RPi's since the beginning and the entire scene has changed so much since I started. Now, things like using HDMI to Component adapters that were previously complicated and finnicky solutions are now excellent ways to get analog signal from a Pi. Also, the software used to launch games has been streamlined and there's some really amazing solutions available. With the addition of Raspberry Pi 4 support comes the possibility for using runahead modes, which means there's the potential for extremely low-lag gaming on certain arcade board or console emulation!
