`13.Dec.2025` The Oasis BBS	"Programmable" Kickstart Switch: SidecarTridge Kickstart Emulator The SidecarTridge Kickstart Emulator, advertised by the manufacturer as "programmable", uses an RP2350 microcontroller, which sits in the socket for the Kickstart ROM via an adapter board, to emulate various official and unofficial Kickstarts. The Kickstart images are written to the device via USB: in "USB Mass Storage Mode", the extension is recognised as an external drive by modern computers. Since the SidecarTridge Kickstart adapter board is designed for a single ROM socket, the hardware is currently only compatible with the A500 and A2000. The supplier is based in Spain, and a Kickstart emulator costs just under £45 plus shipping costs. (cg) [News message: 13.

`11.Dec.2025`	Multiplayer Beat 'em up: Wheelchair Gladiators - Championship Edition (AGA) The "Championship Edition" of the multiplayer beat 'em up Wheelchair Gladiators, released in 1994, was no longer developed with AMOS, but with the Scorpion Engine. In addition to the fact that the game now requires AGA, the new features include a bonus round and special moves for each of the fighters, who are now depicted with portraits. In addition, it is now only clear when you pick it up whether a bonus item contains an extra weapon, a health bonus or a negative effect. The title is available free of charge, but anyone who wishes to do so can make a donation to the developer before downloading. (cg) [News message: 11.
