Re: Hello Everyone
Hey all, my name is Brian, and I have a classic gaming addiction. Just kidding (somewhat). Decided to hit up these forums, since one cannot seem to get enough retro gaming goodness, right? I guess I'd be considered an amateur collector to most that will spill onto this site though. Heres a list of ...

Re: Another Classic gaming site - COOL!
I hear ya man. I got a Wii and I own and play more Virtual Console games on it than actual Wii games. When are they gonna bring the 2600 to the VC? Maybe a pack of games for $10, that would be great. That would be cool. I know in Europe they have Commodore 64 on the Wii. Why not bring that over? I'...

Re: Hello Zap! Users :)
Hi, I'm a fairly new collector of classic video games. I've had a SEGA Genesis and Saturn for years but just recently got an Atari Jaguar and a power cord for an old 2600 I had stored in my closet. And now I'm hooked on Atari :) I used to play these when I was a kid and am really getting into playi...

Signature problem
I see that it doesn't seperate the signature lines. A space (or better yet, a line) should be after you post and before your sig. Looking to correct this, bear with me...

Re: What's Up?
My name is Matt and I'm from Oklahoma. I, also, saw the posting on the DP forums so I decided to pop over and check it out. I first fell in love with gaming when I received a 2600 in 1985 (at the age of 5) and have gamed almost continually since then. I have a decent sized collection of consoles (f...

Re: Hello all!
Kudos to Ter for getting this site up and running! My name's Rob and I've been a video game addict since around 1985, when I played my first game of Frogger on the 5200. I started amassing a collection even then, as I was one of those kids that couldn't throw anything away so I saved everything and...

Re: Forum for imports
That sounds like a good idea. Where do you think I should put it? In the modern sub-forums or under Specialty forums?SegaBoy wrote:A sub-forum to discuss imports would be nice. There are tons of great imports for Saturn, Turbografx/Duo/PC Engine, and Famicom.

The board is still having problems with sending e-mail. Apparently, no one is getting any conformation or new topic posts e-mails. I am expiramenting and sending test e-mails.In the meantime, I set it up so new users don't have to use e-mail conformation (a spammer's dream). If anyone got any mail, ...

EGM is gone! :(
http://digg.com/gaming_news/Ziff_Davis_Sells_1UP_To_UGO_Hearst_Closes_EGM?FC=PRCK1 Although this sucks and I am upset about it, in all honesty EGM died when Ed Semrad left. Even then it wasn't the same as when the great Steve Harris ran it, with Don Neuart at his side. Kind of like when Captain Amer...

Zap! has returned!
Hello all, I'm Ter, the admin for Zap! Back in 1991 I founded Zap! Fanzine, a classic gaming newsletter that started with the September/October 1991 issue and ended with the January/February 1993 issue. I did the newsletter when I was 18, and if you pick up a copy, you can see even then I heavily fa...

Digitally re-mastered issues of the old fanzine Zap!
As many of you know, starting in 1991 (with the September/October issue), I was the editor of a classic gaming fanzine called Zap! The last "official" issue was issue #7, the the November/December issue, but there was a "prototype" of issue #8 saved on an Atari ST floppy disk, ab...
