Don't
Panic I have Returned ! |
Sorry
for the huge delay in getting back to you
all, I have been somewhat busy with my company
the past few months. The addition of another
PC conversion (Chuckie EGG) is the start of
a few more games in the Librarys section.
I hopefully will also be able to start my
Abandonware section for old Amiga and PC titles.
Thank you all for your continued support and
I hope to increase the content in the next
few weeks.

Updated
the LINKS Section |
I
have started the links resource page. This
page will hopefully provide a detailed list
with screenshots and links to good retro website
and resources on the internet. I am purposely
taking a lot of time over my links section
in a bid to make it a proper useful tool to
the user. The screenshots really help the
user decide where to go.

I
have just finally completed the Colecovision
Emulation Section of the website. A total of
210 Game ROMS are available for direct download
as well as A Virtual Colecovision Emulator.
I'm not sure, but I think that this could be
the largest single collection of ROMS anywhere
on the web.
