First Post - Introduction

Postby mirkomick » Thu Jul 05, 2012 10:32 am

So here I am, looking for a new community, having high hopes that this might be a place to stay and enjoy.

I was a longtime member of the late oldgamersclan and enjoyed my time there, sadly they went down some time ago already, but now I urge to replicate that feeling, I hope this is the place to do so :-)

And for the admins and/or moderators, I have a huge collection of roms on my harddrive, if there is interest to check if some of them are missing here, feel free to contact me so we can talk about how to.

All in all, I hope that this will be a place to stay and enjoy, I for one will give my best.

Greetz

(I posted this in the wrong forum first, hope I can delete the whole thread, if not, mods please help me out here :-))

:welcome:

Very nice intro and good to see a new member with a wish to contribute. I suspect that the other guys will also say hello.

We pride ourselves on having more roms than any other site and we spend the most of our time finding, creating and uploading rare and forgotten systems.

Please tell us more about yourself and your interests and once again welcome onboard, it is great to have you.

Thanks for the warm welcome,

some basic infos about myself - I'm a mid 30 german male, who never lost the interest in the games he once played :-). Spent many hours lurking and posting on the now defunct oldgames.nu forums and as mentioned before on the now nonexistant oldgamersclan forums and always was eager to participate and to help keep information and data from the oldtimes alive. Which brings me to the point - is there any way to see if my collection can be of any use (I don't have my list anymore, so it might be hard to find a common ground here)? Maybe a list of games wanted?

I can check plattforms though, maybe there is one which is not already here (which I doubt though :-))

The only way I can think of is for you to compare against our database and then identify roms that we are missing. If you want to do this I can create an FTP upload area for you to use if there are a lot or alternatively you can send them to te_lanus who is our roms database curator.

Guess I will check some and see if I can spot some, maybe over time I will check all, but it will be a hell of a lot work :-)
Edit:
Yes there are at least some amstrad cpc roms I could provide
