How do I set up Thegamesdb scraping?

When I try to scrape thegamesdb I get a message to add my api_key to tgdb.txt. I've registered on the site but I'm not sure what to do next. The only mention of API key seems to be for developers registering an app.

Console Mode won't enable

I'm having trouble getting console mode to start. I have copied the 2 linux and zimage files over to the linux folder and the install script to the scripts folder on the sdcard. When I run the install script everything seems to go ok with no error messages at all but upon restart i just get the standard Mister menu.

Any ideas on what the probem is?

Obscure game recommendations...

I've been thinking, since we all now (or soon will) have just about every 20th century system at the tips of our fingers, what game do you recommend we all check out? It needn't be a good game, just one with something worth checking out that you think may have slipped by the majority of people. After all not all systems and software were available in all regions.

For me, I suggest people check out Feud from Mastertronic. I played it as a kid on the MSX and it blew my mind at the time as it's technically open world although small. The aim is to kill your brother, the evil sorcerer by collecting various herds necessary for a variety of spells.

RetroRemake SNES snac adapter question.

Does the SNES snac adapter support 2 controllers? can't quite make it out in the photos. It looks like it might be one but the N64 one supports 4 and the spec sheet doesn't mention it at all.

Any word on if the NFC antenna is going to be fixed?

If you haven't heard, the revised NFC antenna is too small and doesn't work according to What's Ken Making.

Has Taki or anyone else from RetroRemake commented on this yet?

It's one thing to say a €2.50 replacement part will fix it. It's another thing entirely to expect them to solder the part themselves and pay €18 for shipping. I really hope I don't have to get upset over this. I just printed out and laminated 50 stickers for Zaparoo use.

Quanba Q1WL + magicboot s5?

I'm looking to pick up a decent, relatively cheap stick for 2nd players, preferably with replaceable artwork and a cable compartment.The Quanba Q1WL seems good for the price but I'm not clear on a couple of points. Is the artwork replaceable on this model and will it work with a magicboot s5 for PS5 compatibility? Can anyone who owns this stick enlighten me?

Cheers.
