  1. Wait I am bad with foriegn currency, is that Euro's or Pounds, The currency calculator says thats between $268 and $354 in USA ....thats crazy.....you gonna resell them after scanning?? Thanks for acquiring these though
  2. 56-115 have been uploaded, Will work on trying to get 116-160 up over the next day or two
  3. First 55 issues re'rard and uploaded into the Download section. I am now working on issues 056-115....I should have many if not all of those uploaded by tommorow
  4. Taking on the error checking of the Nintendo Powers has made me realize that they need a lot more work then I originally thought. So I know it must be confusing as hell for someone to see that there are 130+ Nintendo Powers Released (probably not seeded) on Mininova, but then to come here and not find them. So now that we are moved over to our new Host, and we have ample storage. I am going to upload those old Nintendo Power releases into the Download section. These aren't exact matches of what you may have downloaded in the past from Mininova, Newsgroups or Rapidshare....so here is the explanation..... v1) Version 1 Nintendo Power magazines are what you may already have on your hard drive if you downloaded them from Mininova, Newsgroups, P2P or DC++. These are just the magazines and have not been checked for errors and have not been organized or standardized. These also don't have that great "Thank You" page at the end of the magazine that lets people know where the release came from. These issues may also be missing covers and/or posters. These files will no longer be provided. v1.1) Version 1.1 These are almost the same releases as above, but they have been un-rar'd and re-rar'd. They also have had the "Thank You" page inserted at the end. These files also have had any missing covers/posters inserted. All Version 1.1 Nintendo Powers can be found here! v2) Version 2 These are Nintendo Powers that I have checked against physical copies and done the following.... * Cover Accounted For? * Poster Accounted For? * Supplement Accounted For? * Comic Accounted For? * All Pages In Correct Order? * Pages In A Folder? * Standardize Naming Of JPG's * Poster Joined? * Page Numbers Match Up to JPG Numbers? * Player Poll Removed? (if not a page number) * Removed Address Label On Cover? * .NFO Present? * Thank You Page Present? Once a Version 2 is made the corresponding Version 1.1 will be deleted. All Version 2's can be found here! Any questions feel free to ask
  5. So I am guessing I will need to create a Mean Machines section soon
  6. I am still trying to figure out how this topic didnt autoclose, Any Topic that hasnt had a reply in 6 months should automatically lock itself. Oh well, Locking due to the date PS - Anyone who wants to create PDF versions of any of our CBR magazines is more then welcome to do so and reupload them to us. -Phillyman
  7. Issues #3 and #4 of PSM Won! Anyone got issue #2????
  8. I am missing issue 004 or NPA, I have the other ones ready to be sacrificed to the scanning gods
  9. I have noticed the weapons in the battle system aren't showing up, I will try to fix that later tonite.
  10. I finally broke down and switched hosting companies, Godaddy hosting was making Retromags pages load at about 15 seconds each. They told me that it was a problem with the forum software, I told them it was there servers, they told me I was wrong. I switched and we now have alot more 6x more storage and 6x more bandwidth Let me know of any weirdness you may encounter, but I am pretty sure the transfer was flawless -Phillyman
  11. I do have that issue, I will see if I can get it scanned
  12. Oh yeah, I canceled it.....Ugh! Least the fuckers could have done was split the difference, what a rip!
  13. I have a few players guides that I can upload later this week, But not many
  14. Walmart has Preorders of Smash Bros Brawl for the Wii, $19.82 I am in for 1 http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?...996914220138679
  15. A while back we were getting hit hard by spam bots, I would say for about 8 months that each day 5-7 spam accounts were being created. I figure that if someone has no posts and hasn't been here in a year......well they probably aren't coming back....lol Besides the number of registered members means nothing if 99.9% of them don't participate Speak up people, I am not gonna bite you if you post :laughing:
  16. Well its been about 3 months since the last pruning, today was the scheduled date to prune inactive accounts Anyone who had 0 posts and had not signed on to Retromags since 1-10-2007 got deleted today. Easiest way to not get pruned is to make sure you have a post! 93 Members deleted......Next Pruning scheduled for April 10th 2008
  17. The Arcade scores for 2007 have been reset and the following Champions have been awarded... 1st Place: MarioMania (Won 1 year Premium Membership) 2nd Place: Schloss Ritter (Won 6 months Premium Membership) 3rd Place: Nickrj (Won 3 months Premium Membership) Congratulations and good luck keeping your positions in 2008! -Phillyman

    Why .cbr?

    I think each has its pro's and con's Again I am not against .pdf files, I just dont personally have the time to create 2 releases for each magazine I scan. If anyone wants to take it upon themselves to create .pdf files of each magazine, I will give them the information needed to upload the pdf's to this website. I have enough room for 1000 magazines to be stored
  23. I think we are going to go off Arcade Champion position (who has the most number of 1st Place Wins.) Arcade League Leader is based the following way... 10 Points for every 1st Place You have. 9 Points for every 2nd Place You have. . . . . . 1 Point for every 10th Place You Have. So basically someone with 100 tenth place wins would be ahead of someone with 7 first place wins. -Phillyman
