Anyone heard of Retro Gamer magazine before?
mimic:
I have just read one of it's issues, what an awesome magazine! I cannot believe something like that exsists! I never seen any mention here, or did I just miss it? Anyway, I think it's a UK mag because it has a lot computers that I don't think were popular or well known in States, but it also covers a lot of consoles. I guess check it out! *cough* pdf *cough*.
EDIT: Oh, btw latest issue has on it's cover "30 years of Robotron"!!!

I was at Microcenter just the other day and saw it for the first time. It looks awesome. I am regretting not picking up a copy.

I have been reading it for years, and yes, it truly is awesome. To bad I missed the early years of it...

It's very good - only gripe I have is I wish they covered a bit more of the Apple II era,
but I guess it can't be helped being an UK mag (given that c64 and speccy where much more popular there).
They used to have some DVDs with past issues - I recommend getting them if you don't mind reading the mag on a PC or an e-reader.
Otherwise, they reprint some content from time to time in specials (e.g. they recently did a "30 years of C64/spectrum" special issue)

You can get the full back catalogue through the Apple News-stand app. Well it's Pixelmags app, but same old.
Very expensive way of doing it however.
