  1. Well if McCain wins, don't be surprised if www.retromags.com does not work, as I will have changed it to www.retromags.ca
  2. Cant wait to see some releases from you, As for the Nintendo Power magazines I have not scanned some of them because I dont own them. So if I can get my hands on them I will scan them
  3. Well I am really close to 150 scans I think Meppi designed the buttons, maybe he can redo them
  4. The donation box at the bottom does not automatically move members over. Its really there for people who wish to donate without signing up for an account here. I will move you over in a few
  5. Great except its spelled ATE
  6. If the PDFs are of equal quality to the CBR versions, you could re-up them to the download section
  7. Yup Its amazing how fast Google put your scan up as a result
  8. I think I own that one, so dont worry about scanning it
  9. If McStain wins I will be moving to Canada!
  10. I say the third, Make sure not to base your decision off just looking at the guy, take a look at how the black writing appears on the yellow and the color of the red writing. I say #3 shows them the best.
  11. If you guys are looking for an addicting game that will keep you busy for a while, may I suggest N+ for the Nintendo DS. This is a game where you are a Ninja and you must navigate through a maze of obstacles such as mines, lasers, homing missiles and other traps. The game is only $20 and it is available for the DS and PSP.....and even available for the 360 as Xbox Live Download (800 points) This game will test you, you need to make precise jumps in order to complete your missions, and many of the boards have you navigate all the way to one side of the board to flip a switch for a door that is back where you started from. The first few puzzles will leave you with the impression this is a piece of cake, but be warned that the boards get increasingly hard to the point of you wishing you hadnt gotten addicted to this game. I believe there are 45 boards and each board has 4-5 levels.....so more then enough to keep you busy. Oh and this game originally started out as a flash game on the internet, so if you want to give it a try.....go to the link below http://www.addictinggames.com/ngame.html This is one of the boards I am pulling my hair out trying to beat.....
  12. I beat the following games in the past year...... Super Mario World - Super Mario Bros 2 - Space Invaders Extreme - Halo 3 - Portal - The New Mario Bros - Super Mario Galaxy - Mario Kart Wii - I am sure I am forgetting a couple.....
  13. Ok so without GameGenie or cheating, what was the very first Mario game you beat? Mine was Super Mario World for the SNES. I never could beat the first 3 mario games for the NES, Although the Super Mario Bros. 2 port that came out for the Gameboy Advance I did beat. Oh and warp zones are totally legit
  14. *hangs his head* have never played Super Metroid.....not even on an emulator :(
  15. I would personally say to concentrate on scanning the magazines that interest you the most, As they get put into the Download section Google will index them and when people do Google searches on those magazines, they will be referred here. Nothing is a wasted effort, I am always looking for ways to branch out with other publications.....and as you post them people will find them..... As a test....Go to Google and do the following searches "Nintendo Power Issue 49" "EGM Issue 56" "Sega Visions Issue 4" "Gamepro issue 99" "PSM Issue 4" In all of those random searches, Retromags shows up as the first or second link.......Now try some of those Atari magazines.....and you will see Retromags does not show up. Remember a big portion of our new users come from Google.....So as you fill up the Download section with Atari magazines.....we will see an increase of Atari fans Anyways I hope you dont decide to throw in the towel......I grew up at the end of the Atari age and would like to see some of that early stuff around here.
  16. KiwiArcader you should realize that this is a small site and your not going to receive 5-10 replies within 24 hours of posting what you are currently working on. You should be scanning because its something you wish to do, and not relying on people to come forward and express thanks. Look at how many magazines are in our Download section.....and look at how many of them have comments on them. Not many of them at all have even a "Thanks for Releasing This" I would hate for any one to stop contributing due to not feeling appreciated. Dont get the wrong idea about this site.....EGM and Nintendo Power are not the only two publications we care about. Its just that each of us picks a magazine to scan that we like.....and in doing so we achieve a greater spread of whats being scanned......Look at how it is right now...... Phillyman - I tend to jump around but right now am concentrating on EGM E-Day - He tends to do Gamepro and EGM kbf_private_joker - He tends to do GamePro and PC Gamer azzardx - He helps out on the EGM front Fusoya - Only scans Nintendo Powers Meppi - Tends to be a Sega Fanboy and picks Sega Saturn and Club Nintendo magazines to scan Thor - helps out from time to time on the Sega Visions It would be incredibly dull if we were all working on the same magazine, so dont think because you are scanning Atari magazines that we dont appreciate it. I hope you change your mind

  21. I still cant beat the first or third mario bros! I technically only beat the second one on the Gameboy Advance......one of these days!!!!!
  22. New FAQ is up, and still working on it, but hope to have it done soon.....continue with any discussions on how I can improve this FAQ to make the site easier to understand... http://www.retromags.com/forums/Retromags-...d-09-t2992.html
  23. Hey Teggles, Welcome to Retromags, Unfortunately we don't deal with the newer magazines. We only scan magazines from 198x-2003, and even though we go up to 2003 we tend to really concentrate only up to 1999. I am sure you could probably pick up those magazines on Ebay for very cheap -Phillyman
