    Default Missing Retro Gamer Issues in US.

    Anyone here a US subscriber to Retro Gamer magazine?

    My last issue i received was number 205. I tried to contact them and it
    seems they are using an outside source to do their subscriptions.

    Anyone else missing a bunch of issues?

    Thank you, I used your link to send a message and nobody has contacted me.

    Is there anyone in this group from the U.S. that is a subscriber?

    never subscribed. bought an issue years ago and it just seemed like Britons got a lot of different stuff than what we got here in the U.S. back then.

    I've really wanted to subscribe. I finally snapped when I saw the US subscription special, six months for $49 and your choice of different style of 8bitdo controller. That's a great deal. So I went to the site and found no link. Turns out, by the time that issue made it over here that sale had already gone off. And that same subscription sale was in the next two or three issues, taunting me. I don't think I'll ever subscribe until they bring that one back.

    There's a Barnes & Noble I stop at when I go out of town, usually for the sole purpose of picking this magazine up. I stopped in last week and they didn't have any copies of it, nor any of their special edition bookazine jobs. First time in years I've never seen them not have a copy on the shelf.

    I haven't received my last 3-4 issues. They sent a email awhile ago saying that they're holding them until the shipping to the U.S. is back open.

    I got an email in july stating that all the back issues would be sent to the US in August. I still haven't received them.
