Hello everyone! It is time again to do a Retro Q&A! On this show, John & Audi take all of your hot, steamy questions on anything retro gaming! We'll be recording this in the coming days, so you'll have a day or two to think up your best questions and we'll try to get through as many as possible. Last time we did them all, so let's see how we do this time!

Is there a console you feel is most cozy to you?

Watching DF Retro has reignited my love for retro gaming - thanks guys! Off the back of John's love for CRT TVs, I bought a Sony Trinitron to use with my N64, PS1, original Xbox and more. I'm using RGB SCART cables with the TV but I'm unsure how best to manage all the cables. Is there a switch or something else you'd recommend?

Good news! A well funded and ethically sound foundation has awarded you both a sizeable grant to curate the world’s first ‘DF Retro Arcade’ What bespoke experiences will we find in there, and which game would you soundly crush the competition in? Extra points will be awarded for good taste, a diverse library and little known releases involving 90s mascot platformers.

You will find me next to the ‘Money Puzzle Exchanger’ cab having swindled a bunch of noobs into a high stakes money match.

Starting from the 1980s, if you could only pick one retro game as your favourite from each decade, what games would you guys pick?

How do you feel about emulation as a way to enhance retro, I.e PS2 games in HD with true wide-screen, no flicker on the NES, increased mode 7 resolution. I'm personally really enjoying it as it gives me a way to see my old games in a new light rather than the constant chase for accuracy.

Not a question, but I’d love a DF Retro doc on Ranger-X, quite possibly one of the illest Genesis games, with great mechanics.

What is your personal experience on "retro" japanese computers ? Sharp X1 / NEC PC-8800 / PC-9800 series for the old, x68000 / FM-Towns for more recent. Have you played on them ? any title you enjoyed on them ? Snatcher, Ys, The Legend of Heroes for example debuted on PC-8801, quite a few NES games got ported on them, hudson ported Super Mario Bros, excite bike, Balloon Fight and others on the X1.

Hi and thanks for all the great content! What's your relationship with older computers? Not speaking about IBM PC compatibles but Commodore 64, Amiga, Atari ST and such. I grew up with the C64 and Amiga, and would love to see an DF Retro episode about the Amiga some day. It's even more relevant now that the Amiga 500 Mini was announced.

How do you see the future of Retro Gaming evolve in next 5-10 years? Considering this gen is not shying from moving towards online services and service based games?
