Coming up on this week's show, a new Xbox hack could make life a lot easier.

Another Jeff Minter game comes to virtual reality.

And we chat to Ali Motici, who's using Retro Tech to make new indie games.

And the Retro Hour podcast is brought to you each and every Friday with our amazing mates at Bitmap books.

Now, one of my favourite books they've ever done. Game Boy, the Box Art Collection.

Now, despite its size, the Gameboy obviously wasn't short of classic games.
