Darn you with your two covers . . .   must fight urge to get both . . .


Hey SunTeam_Paul, Just out of curosity, how long are you goin to be offering these?

Also these look pretty darn amazing so far.
NW: Hey, I made it on this psycho's Enemies' List, how about that ?? ;)
BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere. You can't tell most retro gamers anything!

_Paul

These are being printed on demand per order so I'm offering for as long as people want them (can't promise no price increases though - damn paper mills keep pushing up the paper costs).

Ooh this makes me excited.

Just ordered star parodier cover.

Keep up the good work bud. As for suggestions for the next issue, how about collector pics and interviews. I miss them in Retrogamer. You have so many opportunities with this. If you do it right and we in turn keep supporting, who knows where this will go!

What stock are these printed on? Do they feel thin and cheap, or are these like glossy and thick? :-)

Jossshhhhh...Legendary TurboTrollX-16: He revenge-bans PCE Developers/Ys IV Localizers from PCE Facebook groups and destroyed 2 PC Engine groups: one by Aaron Lambert on Facebook, then the other by Aaron Nanto!!! Josh and PCE Aarons don't have a good track record together! Both times he blamed the Aarons and their staff in a "Look-what-you-made-us-do?!" manner (extortion/blackmail!), never himself nor his deranged, destructive, toxic turbo troll gang!

Jesus! You are kidding right? Why not do a quarterly issue, or is it super time consuming to produce content for these?

Anyway, I'll be there supporting issue 2 all the way!!!!

Yes it is! The contents of volume 1 go back to July 2010...hopefully I can speed up a bit to fill volume 2, I'm terribly lazy when it comes to writing.

My copy has arrived, great product :-)
