Tetris, anyone? Old school open air video arcade in Taipei, Wanhua, just down the street from Longshan Temple. #Taiwan #vintagevideogaming

It still has some bugs, but the pinball game has gotten to the point where it's plenty presentable for the Maker Faire. I'm pretty proud I got this thing to go as far as it did, there were soooo many kinks to work out, mostly due to errors in the schematic. These builds are giving me a helluva education in digital electronics...

BTW, if you want to read more details about my adventures in TTL video games and building them, I've been journaling about it here. There's subsequent posts detailing other builds, including one that's a sort-of proto Space Invaders.

This is what I've been working on lately - building video games from schematics and designs out of the 1978 book How to Design and Build Your Own Custom TV Games by David L Heiserman. This one here is a pinball game, and its in a playable state (though still kinda janky). I'm adding sound to it now.
It's done ENTIRELY in TTL!
