This NES had corrupted graphics after an attempted c0pperdragon PPU digitizer install. The digitizer captures all of the signals going into the PPU (the picture processing unit) and convert the video output to Lumacode, which is a composite video signal that allows for a pixel perfect decoding of the video image by a device like the RGB2HDMI right from devices like the NES which normally only have a noisy NTSC or PAL composite video signal. Let's fix it -- and then try to fix the PPU digitizer, showing off how terrible my SMD soldering skills actually are.

The Motorola 68000 CPU was released in 1979, to compete with the Intel 8086. The chip was designed to be powerful and versatile and made its mark by not only powering some of the most iconic and beloved games in the 1980s and 1990s, but it also ruled in the home and in the arcades. It helped define the gaming experiences of a generation and left a lasting impact on the industry. Today's episode is a love letter to one of the most influential CPU processors ever and one that many still love to write code on. Please Enjoy!
