Here’s a conversation with Reinhard, also known as C0pperdragon, the mind behind Lumacode. This innovative approach delivers exceptional video quality from 8-bit and older consoles and computers. What sets Lumacode apart is its relative simplicity compared to other video modification techniques, often enabling installations without requiring any cutting of the original console. Lumacode holds great promise for consoles like the NES, and it was a pleasure to discuss it with Reinhard.
