Title: Retrogamer #172
Post by: Digi.k on September 08, 2017, 04:01:34 PM: If anyone is interested in ordering this UK publication you can do it at the link below... It mostly covers UK retro scene but this issue features the pc engine.

I didn't have time to read the article before work, but I got my issue in today's mail:

Post by: soop on January 18, 2018, 08:39:51 PM: I just got a copy of this too - not particularly impressed tbh. We get 6 pages, which is mostly pictures, and some nice interviews with Sunteam Paul, Julian Rignal and a few others, then coverage of a few PCE games elsewhere. What there is is a nice enough read, but it's hardly an essential purchase.

Also, that "review" of the NES advantage is a massive 2 page photo with a tiny box-off in the corner with about a paragraph. I think they're just running out of ideas.

Post by: soop on January 19, 2018, 01:15:23 AM: Yeah, the cover is awesome. I swear they did another feature where they covered all the different hardware, and I swear I used to own that issue, but I can't find it.

Post by: sunteam_paul on January 20, 2018, 10:44:55 PM: I wondered if they used my interview thing.
