Zap!
Welcome to Zap!

Welcome to Zap!, video game fan! Back in the early 90's, Zap! was a bi-monthly video game newsletter I used to publish. The first issue was September, 1991. It covered mostly classic systems and computers, with some newer stuff as well. It was even reviewed in Electronic Games magazine, but that's old news by now. It was a pain to publish, and it bit the dust by early 1993. Now with technology moving on, why not make Zap! a WWW site? Well, here it is.

What are we about?

Zap! will cover all sorts of systems and games, old and (sometimes) new, but since 80's systems are my favorites, (like games from the great era of 1987-1989), most of this page will be devoted to games from those years. I plan on reviewing lots of games, adding more links, and a top 10 best games ever list for other systems (to go along with the top 10 NES and SMS list) as well.

Site news

The exiting news I have is that for the first time in 13 years, I've completely updated the site and gave it a major facelift. It no longer looks like it's from 1996 anymore! I still have a few bugs to work out, but it's coming along very nicely. As you probably know, Zap! has also moved to its own location (rather than being hosted ny Geocities). Also, be sure to check us out on MySpace, Facebook, and Twitter. The forums are also more than a year old now (January 19, 2009), so please check them out and post!
