Discovered this game a few years ago (it was released in 2012). For an extra challenge, try playing it on 60Hz NTSC mode :P

Last year, Digital Eclipse released Atari 50, a sprawling, interactive tour through Atari’s long history. I described it as “a cross between an interactive documentary and a virtual museum exhibition,” and it really set a new bar for retro game collections.

In late 2014, publisher Read-Only Memory released Mega Drive/Genesis: Collected Works, a history book covering the hardware, games and legacy of Sega’s 16-Bit system. Featuring console diagrams and translated design documents, it serves as part art book, part history lesson and part interview collection. And you can read one...

Most of my collection is stored in boxes. I’m halfway to owning a complete set of North American Sega Saturn games. All of the big names should be on that shelf, minus a copy of Magic Knight Rayearth that I lost while moving.

The annual Crap Games Competition has been bringing Spectrum fans together for more than 25 years. It all began with an April fool’s joke in a magazine called Your Sinclair …

I'm always seeing "first CD-ROM game" citations that are totally inconsistent, or which cite games like Myst, so I decided to put together a timeline of all the candidates - and ended up calling into question the point of "firsts" lists in the first place....

Is it the age of the game? Is it the generation of the console you play on? Is it a combination of the two?...

Unofficial Myst port for 8-bit Atari 2600 gives the '90s adventure a '70s makeover.

“Sega Channel was a project developed by Sega for the Sega Mega Drive video game console. Completely revolutionary at the time of release (bar a failed attempt with the earlier Intellivision console), it was a method capable of streaming digital content to Mega Drive owners through cable television.”

I just started Earthbound and am having a good time with it using RetroArch. Also enjoy playing some Gameboy tetris on the train....

Some of these prices are a little rich for my blood, but this label I recently found specializes in gaming OST’s from genres that are kind of all over the place. NES Ninja Gaiden, Arcade King of Fighters '98, Panzer Dragoon…...

I'm using my wife's Nintendo Switch Pro controller and I'm gonna lay in bed all day playing games.
