Hello,

just wanted to let you know that I am on staff for the longest running free online classic gaming magazine. we are always looking for writers. so, if you want to write an article about anything retro gaming, send an email to Bryan at bryan@retr ... tell him zimm sent ya. ;)

here is a link to the latest issue with my very first article ever (about Phoenix for Atari 2600): http://retrogamingtimes.com/rtm60/

I am in charge of the new High Score Monthly contest, which will begin in the next issue. each month we will have an incredible prize including tickets to a classic gaming show or even a homebrew game from Atariage.com!!!!

Nintendo Life editors/admins/mods/etc - I can send you a promo letter each month about the latest issue if you want. give me a name and email address and I will do that. then at the beginning of each month you can make a news post about it. in return, we can place a Nintendo Life banner on the website on the main page. let me know if you are interested!

thanks

How old schoolare we talking? And what kind of contributions are needed? I can go on and on about Genesis and Master System games and tech all the time. But that's the extent of my knowledge besides what I know from being a Wikipedia addict.

anything about 70s, 80s, 90s of video games. does not just have to be reviews or anything. can be "this is my life" on video games during that time. if you just want to do 1 article, that is totally fine and great! do a total of 3 articles any time and then you will be added to staff.

your Genesis/Master System games/tech actually sounds very good! in fact, I know right now Bryan is looking for writers for Genesis, so that is just perfect!

thanks Chatham! :) if you want to do it I would for sure shoot an email to Bryan. he's a really nice guy and very helpful.

I would be excited to read your article(s)!

later

Maybe I should put my vast knowledge of the pre-1984 consoles to good use and write something sometime. I've long wanted to do some Intellivision and Vectrex reviews. :D

that would be excellent Corbie! :) I love both systems! never owned either, but I have played both greatly. I know of a local store that sells Vectrex with a 100 in 1 or whatever cart that includes every game plus some protos for a total of $200 (yeah, I know Vectrex does not have 100 games, I was just saying that for an example ;)) each time I go in there I always think hard about buying one or not. maybe one day.

well, shoot an email to Bryan if you want to write something. I would love to see those reviews. :)

btw, are you the one to talk about doing some sort of promote exchange with us?

I sent our guy in charge of site promotions and advertising Bryan's email if that's alright. And I'll get in touch with him about doing some retro reviews.

yeah, that's fine. Alan and I do promotions for RTM, so most likely Bryan will give your guy my email address or he will just handle it.
it will be great to have you and NL on board. :)

I talked to Bryan and he will look for Corbie's email as well as the promo guy's. He is very excited. He would love to have a reviewer for Intellivision/Vectrex!! Bryan also would love to have Chatham on board as well with his Genesis/MS tech articles. send him an email Chatham!

anyone else interested?

sure is! SNES is perfect! so is N64, but it will need to be about games before 2000.

the articles don't need to be just reviews. can be about anything to do with the game/system. totally up to you.

send an email to Bryan and tell him what you want to do.

btw, Bryan said the first ever N64 article for RTM will be in the June issue. so, perfect timing!! :)

thanks CowLaunch!

Bryan told me he did not hear from any Nintendo Life members yet. bummer.

no one wants to write an article?
Corbie - Bryan did not hear from your promoter. new issue is out now. they can also contact me at paul@retro... I would love to be partners with Nintendo Life.
