Hey folks, new guy here, but certainly not new to classic video games, no siree Bob(or is it Frank?) My name is Nick, as you can see, and you may also be able to tell I like(love) the game DejaVu. I wonder if I should ask for 30 classic gaming systems for my upcoming 30th birthday? Hmmm..
I'll try to post around here, and in time, also post any articles I come up with on either of my video game blogs.
Thanks for having me..now where are the Triscuits and Cheez Whiz?

Deja Vu is scheduled to be our "Game of the Month" for Together Retro in April. Great timing!

Welcome to the fun. The food table is through the arch and down the hall. Just watch out for the punch. Someone spiked it with something cheap and nasty.

Hello all I'm a new member here
I've been browsing site for quite a while,
and I thought it time to finally create an account
I'm from the lehigh valley area of Pennsylvania
I'm looking for other local members to get together
and play retro games as most of my friends are only
into the new stuff and don't appreciate the classics
Anyways I look forward to posting and being a member of this community
Peace- ManicMza

Mmmm, /me scoops up some punch and shoves it down his throat.
Hey
I'm into retro games and just gaming in general. (Why would I be here otherwise
) Also just started collecting so I have a tiny collection, nothing compared to some of the mammoth sized ones I've seen here. Seems like a great place so why not post?
I'm from Iraq originally although I don't live there at the moment, within a one thousand kilometre radius though
Not too old so I grew up playing the only console I had, my PS1, but I blame my love for retro games on that pirated PS1 disc I bought for $1.50 that had an SMS emulator + 101 games on it. Played the hell out of that disc haha. Only realized a few months ago that the sound emulation on it was HORRIBLE, how did I ever put up with it back then...?
Anyways, cya guys around!
/me collapses from punch.

Welcome to the forums! The PS1 was my most-played console during my teenage years, and an old SMS console really pushed me into retro gaming. I had a similar disc for my PS1 but it was a Sega Genesis collection where half the games ran poorly and the sound was horrendous.
