Dude, you gotta share your setup for streaming. I'd actually like to know how it initially was setup and how/why it evolved to where it is today. I've heard that some systems are very hard to get captured so that makes me wonder if the easiest way is just to emulate on the PC or through an external device like a RetroPie.

That’s great man. I didn’t know you have a son. You’re very blessed. My regards to your family.

Thank you Jeff

Thanks for sharing his information. I recently started streaming on twitch aswell. I really want to play retro games, but gaining an audience is pretty hard. This gave me a further look into the work you have to put in.

Stop by the channel and say hi sometime. You can also promote your channel on our Discord linked below.

Been so busy so hard to keep up with my favorite channels so glad to see you putting out content like this in addition to the news and guides that originally drew my attention. Keep playin playa!

[@PlayasGuide]

I wondered how you got into this. Thank you for sharing your journey and background with us! The streams and videos are something I always enjoy watching. We don't always have the ability to play games, or geek out with friends about them, so you should know we appreciate the community you've developed.

[@PlayasGuide]

Thanks mazzapharaoh. It's a pleasure to have you as part of our community.

[@LegallyInsaneGamer]

I hit like before it even started :) VERY interested to hear this.

[@PlayasGuide]

Thanks, I think you'll find it interesting

[@DVDfeverGames]

Will check this out as I've never really used Twitch.

[@PlayasGuide]

It's a fun place to hang out if your interested in socializing

[@firehazard51]

FYI your twitch link didn't work when I used it. Had a bunch of extra crap in the URL that made it not work for me. Still made it to the channel for a follow. Hopefully I'll catch the stream live some time. I'm not the biggest twitch watcher but I've started to do it more frequently so maybe I just need to find the right show/community 😉

[@mr.mentertainment]

what gear did you use to live stream retro games

[@PlayasGuide]

I've kept my set up pretty straight forward cam, mic, capture card, stream deck and OBS. I've been meaning to make a video about this topic

[@PlayasGuide]

Oh and upscaler
