This post reminded me of the cracking (though widely misunderstood and reviled) folk horror film “In the Earth”. There’s a lot going on down there in the mud and mycelium.

It’s weird the things I thought would be there like caves and wells. Combat feels much more difficult without fuse and some of the shrines are really tough. Enjoying it but I feel like I might fall off again at some point.

Playing Breath of the Wild after finishing the main story of Tears of the Kingdom. Got bored with BotW the first time I played it and am giving it another go after really enjoying the sequel.

The one on the right is the MegaDrive one, three buttons + a start button. The C button is by your left thumb. The other only has the one button despite the label showing A + B buttons. Dunno about the pinout but they used the Atari style plug and will have worked fine on Amiga just like the MegaDrive pads did back in the day.

I had one back in the day for my Speccy and despite it being advertised as indestructible I managed to break the red plastic off the stick during a particularly furious swim in Hyper Sports. Had a lovely wound in the centre of my palm for my trouble too. Still my favourite joystick even with just the metal shaft left for the stick and served me well into my Amiga days. Never saw the MegaDrive one in the wild but saw a few Master System ones with 2 buttons. Couldn’t believe it when it came up on eBay.
