For anyone interested in getting these in PDF, read this update:

Greetings,

Breaking the "six release announcements per year" cycle for a very special announcement.

This is an official announcement that the long anticipated Newsletter Legacy Archive is now live.  This is a collected archive of every issue of Retrogaming Times, Bit Age Times, Retrogaming Times Monthly, and The Retrogaming Times in .PDF file format, ready for direct download.  Over 200 total issues across more than 20 years!

The link to this part of the site can be found on the main index: www.classicplastic.net/trt

Retrogaming Times, Bit Age Times, and Retrogaming Times Monthly each feature single download links to obtain every issue in each respective newsletter.  Issue of The Retrogaming Times will have .PDF files added to the Legacy Archive as they are published.

PLEASE read the formatting information on the Legacy Archive page so you understand exactly what you are downloading, as most issues will have download options for two different layout configurations.

Additionally the entire archive is backed up, offline, in three locations.  There is no need to stash the whole thing away or redistribute it elsewhere.  In fact I would rather the archive not be redistributed at all, so that any updates or fixes will always take place at the top.

If you notice any problems, links that don't go anywhere or point to the wrong file, please contact me using the e-mail contact on the Legacy Archive page.

Thank you very much for your patience while this undertaking was completed and thank you for reading The Retrogaming Times.

For those interested in contributing to the next issue (January 2018), the deadline is December 22nd.


See You Next Game,
