Yes, most contribs are returning with a couple of exceptions as their jobs were conflicting with their contributing to RETRO. You can see a current list of contribs on the Kickstarter page. We will be adding Mr. Warren Davis to write about his first hand accounts working in the arcade industry (Gottlieb, Williams, Bally Midway). And Garry Kitchen might be joining the team as well for a recurring column. And a few others will be added hopefully before the Kickstarter campaign ends.

Kickstarter is used by many companies for follow up campaigns mainly for its inherent marketing opportunity. Like I've said, we've been continuing to sell 100-200 subscriptions each month since our last Kickstarter ended. So, we were committed to year two regardless of the outcome of this current Kickstarter campaign. In the end it has brought in over 400-500+ (13 days to go) new subscribers in a month giving us more money to grow the magazine. So everyone wins.
