Inquire for more info. Some of my fondest childhood memories were of being sprawled out on the floor of my parents' house with NES controller in one hand and guidebook or video game magazine in the other. As I got older, I subscribed to publications such as Game Informer, and enjoyed reading the reviews and tips. SUBSCRIPTIONS For subscription inquiries visit site: http://classicconsolemag.weebly.com/ At the time that I thought about starting a magazine such as this several years ago, there was nothing covering retro gaming on the market.

It is at the tail end of what I would consider to be "retro" right now, but it was way ahead of it's time and tons of fun!" Nintendo Addict "You would think Mario and company would think of installing an alarm system in Peach's castle.. just saying." Avid PC Gamer "I started playing computer games on IBM PC's that weighed 40 pounds. I scratched my head through Monkey Island and Day of the Tentacle, and shot my way through Doom and Wolfenstein." >>SEND US YOUR READER MAIL TO [email protected], BE FEATURED IN THE NEXT ISSUE! << 2 | classic console
