In this video I am looking at three new modern boards that emulate the ZX Spectrum computers and can be installed into the OG cases for that proper retro experience. I compare the functions of each one especially file system access, menu and joystick use.

Mechtrums are now on printables for you to download and print, very sorry, but I will not be selling them again.
