Well, its been a long time since I started RVG, loads has happened over the years but I still love a bit of Retro Gaming, it then occurred to me that this scene is still very popular, I have noticed a small downward turn over the last couple of years, less mainstream and maybe getting back to where we was 10 years ago in terms of popularity.

What do you think?

Thought I would see who is about still?

Nice additions mate.
