A highlights video of some retro gaming magazines in my collection. Vintage arcade games, rare Nintendo articles, ads for games lost forgotten and much more.

The Youtube footage is not coming up. Really anxious to see the review, your Videos as in your Banner Name ROCKS!

EDIT: Never mind, my computer was acting up. The video is a nice montage of magazines, thanks!

Worked for me - enjoyed this one and just retweeted it (and subscribed, I thought I had before, my bust).

Nice job as always. I love the videos where you commentate through your collection. There were no throw-away lines here, it flowed really well and was engaging.

Thanks for the sub. I appreciate it!

These videos are so much fun to make... I'm just glad I have a wife who understands what she got herself into when she married me. :D

Okay now it works! I think it was my chugging G3 iMac could not keep up. :oops:

I fired up my Wife's Desktop and enjoyed the video, a great montage of magazines. A very good point about the Ads highlighting rare video games and accessories. A piece of history in the ads, at least thru the Magazine one can "hold" a Vectrex Lightpen.

Loved the NOX ad and why the Heavy Metal pic appealed back to you! :D

I'm using it right now, browsing with Safari in OSX, the main computer whenever I'm home. Love it for the Retro look and OS9 compatibility. Videos are choppy but most do run. Not a problem, I have been going thru your clips with a newer PC Laptop.

I love the C64 vs iPad comparison you posted, you really have a passion for gaming. One thing unique in the C64 is full control of moving the cursor anywhere on the command line. So handy for listing a disk directory then arrow up for a quick load command.

You have a lot of Video Clips, great entertainment, finding out good obscure info! :D

Here is my desk, something of interest to the right, maybe you can add yours to the other thread?
