| 15/03/2026 - Many Projects! |
I've been a little absent from my blog lately. But I've been quite busy producing a lot of things, including many projects that have finally come to fruition, such as Project R and F, which I've already linked to on my page. |
Another important point is that my development environment for the SNES works incredibly well, so I'm thinking of making it available to the community so that we can have many new games on the SNES.. |
| 25/12/2025 - Merry Christmas! |
These past few years have been filled with a lot of studying and mental and physical exhaustion, but it was all worth it, and today I can only be grateful for all the victories I am now reaping. I wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a very successful 2026 in their personal and professional lives. Strength and honor, always. |
| 24/12/2025 - Hello my dear friends! |
I'm back here to say that many alternative projects are currently on hold. Those who have read the last few posts know that my routine is totally focused on my new professional journey, which officially begins in 2026. Of course, I set aside some time to take care of my game collection, but the rest of the time I'll focus on my public service job. However, when all this is over, I will resume everything I've been working on as a hobby for the past few years, because I won't deny that I enjoy it very much. |
| 27/10/2025 - And Long Live the Tranquility! |
Everything has been very calm lately. I'm practically relaxing mentally due to all the intense studying and preparation of the last few years, and especially months. My focus at the moment is taking care of my collection, which ranges from video games to vinyl records, whether by cleaning, organizing, or restoring, as well as playing games and listen to music, and this, for me, is like a calming. |
But of course, not everything is calm, because, at the same time, I'm studying for my civil service exam final of the training course, only classificatory, in addition to balancing my IT job, where I have to take care of my clients so that their technology is always available and thus guarantee their satisfaction. After all, for now, they are my main source of income. |
| 19/09/2025 - It's Over! |
Finally, the training course for the civil service exam I passed has come to an end. It was an intense time, both physically and mentally. It was painful and grueling, something that has marked my life, both in terms of overcoming and experience. In other words, I paid my dues. In fact, as the instructors say: if it were easy, everyone would be. It took many years of preparation to get here. Sometimes I deviated from the path with trivial things, but I had the wisdom to continue toward my goal, and the result was no different: within a month, the qualifying exam will be held, and probably within a month or two, my long-awaited new job. |
Now I'll get back to my routine and take care of my collection, which has been forgotten and is very dusty. I've also returned to my IT job, which will be my second source of income now, not my main one, in addition to continuing my retro PC project. I will also return to programming for old games just as a hobby, because I really like it, and not aiming for exposure, after all my free time will now be very large. |
And that's it, my friends: força e hora!. |
| 20/08/2025 - More one month, and everything is fine! |
It's been confirmed that our course will be longer than other classes. This isn't a problem, after all, the course is now much lighter compared to the beginning. |
| 14/08/2025 - Snes and Arduino! |
There is a conceptual possibility of integrating an Arduino into a SNES cartridge and using it to work with the console's hardware and thus help with arithmetic calculations, and most interestingly: injecting binary data into the WRAM and VRAM and thus having practically "unlimited" storage space. |
| 21/07/2025 - One month left! |
I'm in the final stretch of my training course. I really miss playing with my hobbies like: programming games, playing my consoles, my old PCs and making my mods that have been stored for years waiting for the right moment. |
It's been intense days and I've had to overcome many personal battles, but one thing I'm certain of: I've become a better and more prepared person, with the conviction that you can overcome all challenges, whether mental or physical. |
| 12/07/2025 - New DOOM to SNES! |
I didn't comment here, but an updated version of DOOM (with new chip Super FX3) for the SNES was in development. So pre-orders started yesterday. |
I initially wanted the collector's edition, but I'm having a bit of financial trouble, so I pre-ordered the standard version plus the vibration controller. The expected shipping date is next year because they will certainly only ship when everything is mature and stable. |
| 18/06/2025 - Two months left! |
I'm here to share some news. I'm alive and well. I have two months left until the end of my training, after which I'll be able to return to my old gaming routine, but of course, with the new job in the public service that I've always dreamed of. |
I am in a completely different world than I was before, but now I really feel like I am contributing to the good of society with effective actions. It's a shame I can't share it due to professional confidentiality. |
| 01/04/2025 - News! |
Nothing new has happened. I'm still in training, no time to play video games, program or anything else and this routine will continue until October. |
I am very tired, but every victory requires certain sacrifices, because your future must be a priority above everything and everyone. Remember: whoever hinders or delays your process must be eliminated from your life, after all, the true ones will reap the fruits of victory with you. |
| 15/02/2025 - RafaelTube Player! |
I managed to completely hack the player that was used on YouTube in 2008. Now it works perfectly, good sound quality, buffering stream and subtitles in multiple languages. There is still work to be done on the other modules, but what has already been done is enough to reproduce in any old browser. |
|
| 13/02/2025 - RafaelTube! |
I managed to integrate the oldest video player that was used on YouTube in 2005 into my platform to run on Win9X browsers. With this, I will be able to share a lot of multimedia content of the most diverse types. Now I'm hacking the 2008 version of this video player that can integrate subtitles, because my idea is to have a complete video platform. |
| 07/02/2025 - Studies and Changes to the Website! |
Well guys, like I said, my professional life is very busy. I have a 1000-page book to study that will be included in the training course assessment. Speaking of which, I am officially unemployed, after all, to take on a public position in Brazil you cannot perform any other function, not even in a private sector. I want to do everything according to the law so that I can soon receive my "posse". |
Even so, I found some time to play around with my website a little. I redesigned it to make it compatible with older browsers so you can access it through Windows 95/98/ME and also some consoles like Playstation, Dreamcast, and ohters. Access to this page is very restricted. I'm thinking about disabling it from the normal internet and leaving it only on WhiteWeb, that way I'll have a little privacy to make more private content available, as we all know that once it's public posted it's almost impossible to make it private again, making it eternally public. |
| 10/01/2025 - Happy New Year, Brothers! |
My life is very busy with these changes for my new job in the public service. After all, the training course will take about 9 months and I will only have time to resume my hobbies well after the middle of the year. |
I can't wait to get back to programming for SNES and other platforms like Genesis, Dreamcast, Sega Saturn. As my warrior brothers from the training course say: strength and honor, always. |
| 13/12/2024 - Merry Christmas! |
Many studies, my friends, but victory has come and soon I will be a public servant. |
| 11/10/2024 - Hey, guys!! |
I managed to pass a public competition that I had dedicated myself to in recent years. I can't go into details, but this completely drained my free time so I had to stop all my projects for now. I'm in the final phase of this incredible stage that will completely change my life. |
| 21/08/2024 - What an incredible month, my friends! |
About Mysterious Song, fixed all the problems in addition to several optimizations. I assume that now if no more bugs are detected by the testing team it can go to the factory for production. |
| 03/08/2024 - I am back, friends!! |
I'm finally feeling great and I've already resumed my usual routines, including physical exercise. As for the projects, I returned with commitment to finishing the MS game as there was little left to complete and I just finished it. Now it's time to work on testing and launch it. I also intend to start projects for new games and also for old computers. |
| 26/01/2024 - Happy New Year! |
Hello my friends! I've been missing because I was organizing my professional life, and In February I officially start my new job. In this new job there are no hours and everything will be done according to the demand that arises. With this, I will have the freedom to make better use of my free time, which will be infinitely greater. |
As I have already finished my office, I will officially start my softwares development company and there will be a division for retro games so that I can work and make money effectively in this world that I really like. |
Speaking of which, I didn't have time to finish the MS, but in February I will actually finish it. |
