Beyond Nostalgia: retro news, views & CRT photos

[arkive]

As if I wasn't already pretty busy, I started a Substack "newsletter'. It's an interesting medium which gives me more space and reach to write about retro gaming & hardware, and allows posting photos from my beloved CRTs too (so it's a bit like the mags back in the day .



You can subscribe and get it via email a few times a week, but it actually also works just like any ol' website, so you can just go there and click on articles directly: https://beyondnostalgia.substack.com/

I'd like to talk about all this stuff, too, so will post some highlights here every week. Also, if you have any CPC-related news, topic you'd like to see covered, or a game photographed in CRT-vision, let me know!

Here's some stuff from the last week:

• Amiga hitting the big Four-Oh. Happy Birthday! I have a lot of pics and words about some of the best games for this occasion
• ZX Spectrum Next's Kickstarter #3 smashing it (2.1 mil with 20 days to go at the moment...)
• R.I.P Ozzy & Hulk & Julian LeFey. Yes, Ozzy was in a video game too, and if you're not familiar with Mr. LeFey, he's also known as the Father of the Elder Scrolls, and in an unexpected retro-connection, he wrote music for Sword Of Sodan.
• Fenrir (Saturn ODE) gets a price cut and ZX Spectrum & C= Plus/4 new Kong games

Thanks for the heads up, seems nice. Followed.
