Re: Hello
Hi.
I've been a reader/subscriber of Retro Gamer for many years. Sometimes I think oh no not another article on a main stream retro game that everyone knows about, but then they have gems such as 'Lost Patrol' and they covered the ZX Spectrum game 'Rescue' (a service station bought gem on a school trip) There is always something of great interest.
If I was a wordsmith I would like to cover the modern retro hardware developments across all the systems, but then I expect the general readership is not as geeky as me.
