A worthwhile kickstarter if anyone is interested.

Great news, it's now funded. Should be a valuable resource for all retro game enthusiasts.

Yes great news indeed. I'm glad I could contribute to this great initiative. I'm a bit disappointed in the (lack of) reactions here though...

Actually it was posted yesterday but... whatever, it's been funded.

It is a bit surprising not to see more commentary considering a majority of the people on this forum have probably used this guys images in their frontend or some other retro game related project.

I think it's a cool service, I'm glad he's doing it and that I supported it. The pdf booklet of all the systems will be nice too.
