What Should We Add to the Retro Gaming 101 series?

[RyaNtheSlayA]

I would definitely say the NES/Famicom and the PS1. These are probably the most important consoles of all time.

I very much agree.

How about those great little LED handhelds? You know, like Mattel Electronics Football, Baseball, Basketball, etc.

Or what about a stand-alone feature on the history of LED- and LCD-based games?

So, one entry might be all about those LCD-games of the '90s, like the stuff from Tiger Electronics.

oooh, I like where pullmyfinger is going. Translated titles sounds like a winning list to me.

yeah- that would be really great. I bet there are a ton of great retro games that i haven't played yet.

When racketboy says so.

So... what's the verdict, Racketboy?

Well they aren't off-limits. My normal rule of thumb is when they are no longer current.
But considering we have so many other older ones to cover still, they are a lower priority in my mind.

Those did cross my mind. I would like to get to those eventually

I didn't realize there isn't already an article for SMS. I'd like to see an article on SMS then!

P.S. I can help with the handhelds, I already own most of the Mattel handhelds that were produced though I don't know much about the other brands. I guess I was a Mattel Electronics fanboy! Still have the original boxes, packing and instructions too!
