Capcom and clothing brand Numskull have teamed up to create a range of five rather attractive new limited edition Street Fighter t-shirts for summer 2015, with designs provided by the pop artist and New Yorker illustrator Stanley Chow. Chow’s designs are vintage-style offerings featuring stylised profiles of Ryu, Ken and Blanka against backdrops of their national flags, with […]
As we all know too well, R-Type is one of the greatest scrolling shooters to ever grace the arcades. Since its release the game has arrived on a whole host of different systems, however, few of these ports have managed to replicate the coin-op chaos perfectly. One that comes to mind is the Atari ST […]
If you’re collecting Nintendo NES games in North America, you’ll no doubt be familiar with how tough it is to keep track of the many different releases on offer. With over 700 games to be found, those who have managed to source each and every one of these games – including Stadium Events – will […]
Originally, I was just going to throw up a clip of The Critics’ Jay Sherman just saying his trademark line of “It stinks!” but that would be simply broadside-ing with an elephant gun what at its core is a good game wrapped up in layers of garbage, like one of those Babushka figurines. So, let’s […]
I was honestly tempted to run this as ‘Something For The Weekend’. Oh crap, I guess this is a comment technically. Oh well. Original article. The post Presented Without Commentary: Hedgehog ‘Misjudges His Own Girth’ appeared first on Sonic Retro.
It’s not easy being a wrestling nerd. The constant questioning of your intelligence (“You do know it’s not real, right?”) is one thing, but the struggle to find good stuff to watch is more troublesome.

Here it is again, folks – after skipping out last week (how irresponsible of me!), I return again with a project that I think deserves a bit of time in the spotlight of our front page. This short film was animated by Sonicpox along with several other names within the community, all of which can […]
Less than a month into my tenure on Retro Gamer, I learned something important about my editor Darran Jones: he’s not a fan of Dig Dug. Within a month, the fact that I’d even brought it up in the office prompted him to write this piece on why he loves Mr. Do! The argument is […]
In 1997 Japanese developers Fill-in-Cafe released another entry into their long running Asuka 120% Burning Fest series on the Sega Saturn known as Asuka 120% Limited. Not too long after the fighting game was hacked apart by fans (or possibly the game’s original team) and re-released under the new name Asuka 120% Limit Over – […]
Many know of the brilliant first-person shooter Duke Nukem 3D, which was packed with raunchy content, oodles of aliens to gib and massacre with an array of deadly weapons, maze-like missions and plenty of cheesy one-liners. Blood, on the other hand, is a lesser-known gem from the late nineties. Instead of sci-fi themes and nudity, […]
