Interview With Mathijs Nilwik

Here's a conversation with Mathijs Nilwik, a developer who reverse engineered the Game Gear motherboard and assembles his replacement with his own pick&place machine. I really enjoyed talking with him about his work and think this paves the way for so many cool things in the future. As always, these long-form podcasts are also available everywhere audio-only podcasts can be found, with a direct download below. Here's links to Mathijs' work, as well as a video from Tito from Macho Nacho Productions at the bottom, which is a great summary of the motherboard project!
