Retrogames Magazine

[edit]

The Beginning

In Spring 1994, British gaming collector and enthusiast Jason Moore started writing a gaming magazine in his lunch hour during work. Unlike magazines of the time, this magazine was dedicated to retrogaming, only covering games on formats out of production. Once complete, the first issue was cheekily reproduced on the office photocopier. The first advertisment for Retrogames appeared in the back of Edge Magazine Issue 27.

It also marked the first time the term 'Retrogames' had ever been seen in print.
