Just in time for World Goth Day: our officially licensed "Thou Art Dead!" shirt, sporting the classic game over screen from Shadowgate (in the original spooky Macintosh black and white, of course). All proceeds benefit historical video game preservation! https://t.co/46hR6CgfSD

@RetroTechChris Saw your helpful video comparing the upgrades for the HX/EX - I wanted a 3-in-1 but could only find the official Plus expansion so I maxed out the ram on it. Definitely getting one of these too so thanks for posting this! 😁

People who buy NES and SNES games today take one look at this FuncoLand price sheet from December/January 2000 and automatically want to build a time machine to go back and take advantage of this.

PSA: Wonder what Marathon is about now that Bungie are relaunching it?

Good news! Bungie made the original Marathon trilogy open-source under a super permissive licence! You can download a modern engine, all three games and multiple full fangames here!

I’ve spent every day this past week either playing Zelda or thinking about playing Zelda. Legit full time hours...

I feel like I need my life back but I just can't put it down! My only hope now is to actually beat the game! 😆 #totk

@ActionRetro1 @RetroFox8Bit @vcfederation That Mac is so awesome! Love it!

[Jarrod Gruz @gruz]

Just caught the Super Mario Bros. Movie and it was a blast! Loved all the references to the games. It's definitely a fantastic family-friendly flick and a great kids movie! Took my crew to see it, and we all had a great time! :) #SuperMarioBrosMovie

In a few hours, the eShops for the 3DS and Wii U will shut down for good, and with it the end of an era.

The eShop bag goes for one last ride, thanking you for all your purchases. Now it's our turn to say thank you... for all the memories. :)
