The magazine is written by the same guys responsible for Crash (ZX Spectrum) and Zzap64 (C64), both are British videogame magazines from the 80's and 90's. This 'Retrogamer'-magazine is focusing on retrogaming in particular and has a broad readerbase that is active on the forums ranging from Brazil, Australia, Portugal, Germany,the Netherlands and many other countries besides the UK and Ireland. For some reason US interest has always been low. Of course being from the UK there is some emphasis on European home computers of the past like the Amstrad CPC, ZX Spectrum, Oric, BBC Micro series but for the most part it is focused on retrogaming world wide without wanting to leave out a specific group. Most US sites/magazines focus on Atari 400/800, Apple II, TRS-80 just a tad more.

I have been a member since issue 1 actually and it is a great magazine. There is a prize guide with all major systems and consoles listed in Euros/Dollars and a collector (this issue actually features a bloke from Australia) is interviewed and part of his/her collection is shown in the magazine. For some reason our website is NOT listed among the essential websites but Shane's retrogaming radio is ;-)
