Not sure if this is the right place to ask but-

I use tapatalk (phone app) to sign in and comment... but I can't use the same login when I go to the website on PC. Is there anyway I can?

I use the same login/pass for tapatalk (which I've only barely started to use) and normal website without an issue, not sure what's going on with yours...

I have kind of an off-the-wall idea: let's open some sort of Racketboy store, where retro console accessories could be sold to members and the public. Mod chips and VGA adapters would be a must. Racketboy takes a slice of the profit, and everyone's happy.

Didn't we have this before, but later shut it down? I'm not sure as to the reasoning why it was shut down, but for some reason I want to say it had something to do with profitability, or issues with inventory.

There did used to be one, and I loved it. I ordered a couple of AV cables and I think my Dreamcast VGA box there.

Racket did not have enough time to run the site, let alone a store. So he firesold the inventory a while ago.

I have mentioned to him several times a donate button could easily be added, and it is on his to do list.

Exactly, when I go to a site with dead links, or non-updated links I assume the site is dead or dying. Also the front page never changes, which I bet turns people away too. I wish there were a way to quantify how much traffic is lost due to this.

Really gonna be sad if this site dies. :cry:

I mean, we just can't keep up with the other gaming media giants. Kotaku, ScrewAttack, Polygon, IGN. It's slim pickings out here!
