Hello guys and girls. I've decided long and hard on this for quite awhile, and I finally decided I love retro gaming and miss it so much that I went ahead and made a fully owned domain name site dedicated to that of retro gaming. I, by in no way, mean to discourage anyone here from going to current Youtube game channels or any other game channels. I am just letting everyone know that this is something I am sincere about, and will follow it through until the very end. I miss the good old days of NES, SNES, N64, and even Playstation 1. Games simply just aren't the same anymore... they lack story, and imagination, and are pretty much all focused on graphics. This, to me, is disgusting and destroys the meaning of good, old, hardcore gaming. There are still a few of us retro fanatics out there, and I know we're a dieing breed, but I'll go down fighting for retro gaming. This is why I've made a site dedicated to retro. I also own a Twitch TV Channel dedicated to retro gaming. If any of you are interested I would sincerely accept your help. Not by donations, or any other form of money. But just spread the word and let my site be known. You can join guys, and you can upload your video's just like you could on Youtube except at my site it will be strictly retro video's. I'm not necessarily trying to make it big. I just really want to reinvent the days of retro gaming. I reminisce about those times all the time, and I can't let it die. I love it with all my heart. I definitely plan to increase my site with blogs, and a stand alone retro dedication site listing games of the 80's, and 90's. Reviews, my thoughts on them, and the such. I want you all to be apart of something big, and I know eventually you all could appreciate the attempt I am making here. Please, feel free to sign up at my site today and get uploading. I thank you all for hearing me out, and I hope to see you at my site. Any questions or anything else just email me at classicgamingincorporated@gmail.com. Thank you. Let's try to bring that dream back...

The lack of others in this blurb, Sega specifically, makes me sad :(

I regret to inform you that I never have experienced playing any game on a Sega console. :/ Though I will take the word from Sega Fans, and it is welcome on my site. Because I don't note a console in particular doesn't necessarily mean I don't approve of it. Apologies.

I really disagree that new games lack story. If anything, they sometimes have more than is needed.

But that's just an aside. I really love seeing the retro gaming community blossom into something big. I think it only means good things to come for is old fart gamers. We're already seeing new games from little, independent companies for 8-bit, 16-bit, and beyond. As more and more talented people hop on board, the more and more great products we'll surely see to help is all keep these old games and console alive for decades to come :D

I'll have to check over your sites in a bit. I definitely appreciate your enthusiasm :)

Haha, thank you. I definitely don't aim to bring in just older people, haha. I, myself, am only 25. On average I would assume I am talking about people ages from 18 to early 40's, but of course everyone is welcome.

Personally I'd rather it didn't so old games would stay affordable.

I can understand that concern, but I really think the benefits of it becoming such a popular/mainstream hobby will outweigh the current inflated prices. Plus, I know that a lot of us older gamers have found ways to get even the priciest games for a decent price. It's pretty easy to find ways to take advantage of such a serious boom in the retro marketplace ;)

In a perfect world, people would still develop new games for 2D systems based around CRT tech AND games already released would still be affordable.
