Video Game Zine

People left because of all the bs.
Even I was just passing by to see whats up.
Board is dead,bury it.

Same thing that always happens. People got too ambitious and trying to do a community collaboration on an anonymous pachinko smuggling board is a bad idea because no one is accountable.

What bs?

It's just funny that when i found the thread I was in the mood to publish something.

If people are still making content or have articles they want to share I'd like to make a mock up.

Let's start with 16 pages excluding 4 pages for inner and outer cover.

Topics I would like to see:
-Console War: N64 vs PlayStation
>the horsepower of each system, launch games per region, price, pros and cons, innovations
-Appreciation Station: PC Engine
>what made this system so good, what made it so bad, variants
-Evolve: computer graphics through time
>either start with PC, consoles, or handhelds, or all
-Tech: CRT Guide and Cables
>set up diagrams, TV specs, which cables are good for what
-Developer Spotlight: Composers
>bios and gameography of popular and less known composers, recommended game and tracks
-Collection Room: /vr/ physical game collections/systems
>game & watch collections, atarin collections, systems, controllers, memorabilia

That's 6 basic subjects and of course I'm open to suggestion of changes.

If you peeps write the articles, I'll have to do research to verify information. I'll do formatting, layout, and editing. If you have pictures to share that'd be helpful, otherwise I'll aquire that too.

Believe in the zine.

But I'm not using a trip.
Anyway, I'm off to lick my dog's anus. See you guys later!

Good one Gor.

Old meme, stupid tripfag.

We're still working on it. We moved all discussion and whatnot about it to a private mailing list since /vr/ isn't really a good place to discuss things. These days there are too many false-flagging /v/-tier posters like these people:

They were never involved, but they can't wait to shit on something.

Work is going forward, we aren't quite at the ready-to-publish stage, but we are getting there. There's about 7-8 of us working on it, plus the editor. We'll probably make a thread about it when it's ready to be published.

I did not know this was a thing, I am into collecting comics, mags, undergrounds. Really love the care that goes into self published things. So good luck and I am looking forward to it.

I'd be down to contribute to this at some point. I wrote a retrospective on Ys Book I and II recently but I'd also be willing to do a deep-research-dive

I'd buy a copy.
