I know we said we were waiting till 2026 to record more episodes, but we couldn’t resist getting on Clyde Shaffer to talk about his brand new 8-bit game console, ‘the GameTank’.

This isn’t FPGA or emulation - it’s new hardware with brand new games celebrating all things retro in 2025, and you guys flocked to our website in droves to check it out. 

We sat down with Clyde to get all of the information on the GameTank that we possibly could, from how the idea started to the design process and game development. If you’re into your retro gaming (which you all should be if you’ve read this far), then you’ll absolutely love this episode.

So sit back, grab a hot chocolate, and enjoy a sneaky episode before we return in 2026!
