I got a little too competitive during Friday Night Live... and my vintage GEMSTIK joystick paid the price. 😅 You can actually hear the exact moment it snaps.

Want to see what happened before and after this moment? Watch the full Friday Night Live here:

👇 ABOUT FLOPPY DEEP DIVE 👇

Hey, it’s Tom from Texas. I run the machines we grew up with.

No emulators. No shortcuts. Just real hardware powered on the way it was meant to be. The click of keyboards, the whir of floppy drives, and the glow of a CRT hitting you right in the nostalgia.

If you remember swapping disks, waiting for games to load, or hearing a startup sound that instantly took you somewhere else… you’re in the right place.

Here you’ll find:

🕹️ Real hardware gameplay across C64, Atari, DOS PCs, consoles, and more

⚔️ Head-to-head comparisons (C64 vs Atari, C64 vs NES)

💾 Deep dives into forgotten games and mystery floppies
