Well I might not be able to post much in the next few days. In a number of hours I will be right in the middle of Hurricane Ivan. So I probably won’t have power and such. Just keep me in your prayers as my wife and I try to take shelter in our apartment […]
As mentioned a couple months ago, I’ve been in the middle of scanning some of my old gaming magazines. Well, there is now officially a new Magazine Section over at SegaXtreme. You can look at my first release there (Summer 1991 Sega Visions) and keep checking back for new releases.
My fellow SegaXtremers probably know this thread well, but for any others of you that happen to stumble across my site, might not have seen this. If you are looking for an easy way to install a modchip in you Sega Saturn, look now further. My buddy, Mal, discovers a different way to accomplish this […]
This has been out for a while, but I wanted to post it anyway. Paul ter Voorde put together a great Flash movie that puts Mario in a parody of The Matrix Reloaded. It’s pretty well-done and it worth the download. Here are some other links if you would like more Flash movies: Other Mario […]

Even though I’ve almost NEVER played fighting games, I’d really like to start playing them on my new cab. However, I suck at them, BADLY. I can […]
Now I’m sure you’ve all seem some retro-themed gaming t-shirts, but how would you like an endless stream of pixel-laden shirts? Well, I’ve been spending the good part of my afternoon and evening today working my own designs and looking at hundreds of others at Pixel-Tees. It’s a very cool site where you can buy […]
It’s been nice to hear from a few of my readers. Comments are what keep me going. So I’m hoping that those of you who are regulars and even those just stopping in could let me know what you like about the site and what you don’t. I really want this blog to be something […]

A newbie over at Ars Technica, Archangel Mychael, has struck a nerve with gamers with his discussion titled, “Games these days…”. Check out this interesting debate about whether games from out past were actually the better than today’s incarnations or whether we have rose-colored-glasses while looking back.

In detail, there were 10 Game Boy Advance entries, 8 GP32 entries, 3 Gameboy Color entries, 1 […]
Sega has decided to sell separately the special USB Saturn controller that it was originally going to release with the PC version of Puyo Puyo Fever. It is reported to be a white controller that will match the white Apple PCs and accesories. For those of you that haven’t had the pleasure of using this […]

Well things are starting to pick out steam on our effort to scan a bunch of old gaming mags. I’ve completed a couple and am waiting for Iceman2K to finish up the pages for the Magazine Archive over at SegaXtreme. After that my first two issues will be available to download. I’ve also got MountainDud […]
