Looking for help with iRetroGames.com

I care!  I care!  I wouldn't know how to maintain a site, I haven't even maintained mine and not even sure if it works.  If you can't get the support you need for the shop style, then maybe the info style will be easier for you.  All depends on what your aim/goal really is for it and if you've got the time to achieve it - then find the balance.

Good luck

ArcadEd:
Thanks CDBrown :).

The more I think about it, the more I'm leaning towards more of an informational site.  No store involved.  More of a PHPNuke type of setup.

If we could get a good 3-5 people to contribute reviews and game information, that would be awesome.  We can also provide the downloadable files if it's ok with the authors.  And maybe just provide a link to purchase the game.  We could still use all the affiliate programs I have setup with various websites to help bring in a little bit of cash flow to keep marketing the site and keeping it paid for.

So, in other words.  Still looking for help :).  I would love to keep the name, www.iRetrogames.com as well.  Though ArcadeGames4Home.com is available :)  That just sounds cheesy.  Adding the i to Retrogames just makes it sound so today, and hip LOL.

Anyway, contact me if you think you might want to help.

I'd help, but once as a kid I had a pet hampster and I forgot to feed it for a week.......

Well the new site is taking form right now, and with a little luck it will be done by the end of the weekend.

What I really need right now is a few reviews.  If anyone can help with doing a review or two, please let me know.

I have about 6 free games we can start with.

We want the reviews to consist of the Normal review stuff (Gameplay, graphics, sound etc.) But we want to make sure there is an added section about the ease of use on a home arcade type setup.

Current Free games are.
Beats of Rage

Most anything from Aba Games.

Those are just the free games that have been mentioned to me.  I have not had a lot of time to search for anything recently.

Thanks.

Well I've been working on the new site a bit over the last few days.

You can take a look here, but it's far from finished.  Basically I've just been getting a lot of the custom PHP stuff in place and altering the Joomla template to work for the needs of the site.

www.aiabgames.com/joomla  (temp domain).

Anyway, what I am looking for some help with now is a slogan for iRetroGames.  The old site used "Independent gaming..for the home arcade enthusiast"  Is that good?  Any other suggestions?

Oh, and still need help with everything mentioned in above posts :).
