Re: Genre of the Month (JAN 2024 TR) - Plentiful Platformers

Thanks for making this thread. I've been following along. How does deciding on a game for the month work? I'm a bit time-poor these days, but really want to experience the camaraderie of playing through a game along with you guys. I really enjoyed Contra on the Nintendo DS a few years back. This Inf...

Re: Together Retro: The Official Forum Thread

Is this still a thing? Was looking for the thread of the month, maybe I missed it. Don't have much time (or willpower) for games these days, was thinking something like this might be fun to participate in though.

What do you regret selling/getting rid of?

For me: Sega Saturn with three controllers + steering wheel + Sega Rally Championship: Picked this up for $30 at a market when I was about 12 or something. Friends friend told me he would give me $50 for it. I cleaned up the console and put it in a bag. Never saw it again, or the money that was prom...

Re: Games Acquired 2017

TRS-840 Tandy CoCo 2 System This is a PC, right? Pretty neat find. I'd collect legacy hardware if I had the space to store it and display it somewhere! The TRS-80 is really cool.

Re: Is the Switch worth putting off getting a PS4?

I went out to buy a PS4 Pro the other day ($509 here) and realised that for the same price as a PS4 and a couple games I could get a second hand Wii U and a bunch of great games... But yeah, a Wii U isn't exactly a Switch. Honestly, right now the Switch seems like a massive rip in my opinion. The ga...
