Neither Retro Gaming Magazine nor any member of our staff is associated with the Target chain of retail outlets. Michael just thinks this particular series of ads from the 90’s featuring “Respected coach and video gameologist Tom ‘The Thumb’ Blake” which ran in GamePro magazine was amusing. Thus we’re going to feature one every Tuesday […]

Shenmue, the apple of many a gamers eye as evidenced by that recent Kickstarter campaign, is getting quite a bit of press lately (look at our coverage for example).

In our second issue of RGM we featured several “digital comics”, think Snatcher and you will have a good idea of what they are. The reason I bring that up in this article is because there is a new Shenmue digital comic developed by two fans. Shenmue Gaiden is not a canon title but a […]

Everyone that is reading this knows that Mortal Kombat never saw release on the Atari 2600. If you didn’t, now you do. That has not stopped indie developer and Atari Age forum member, Facemeat, from creating an action adventure title set in the Mortal Kombat world for the classic Atari console. Mortal Kombat Netherrealm Journey […]

There are plenty of enterprising gamers out there that are willing to go the extra mile to do what others don’t even dream of doing. One instance of this occurrence is the “re-imagining” of class, retro, games such as Mario, Sonic, Zelda, etc. These are beloved games (even if their more current iterations leave something […]

Okay, this is a rather funny/unique mod to be writing about, especially after the announcement that a “selfie stick” was added to id Software’s classic Doom title. This is basically the game of Doom being played in the game of Doom and it is also possibly answering the Grandfather paradox once and for all. Carl […]
