https://twitter.com/RETROVGS - 'Tis no more. :(

I had to move the "winning team" shot of Mike Kennedy and the old gang to my postimages.org account (here as well) as the RetroVGS Twitter account has been deleted, so all photo links derived from it were rendered broken - I cannot bear broken links... Thank you WayBack Internet archive for the recovery and...nevar forget!

But what are they thinking? Perhaps something like this ...

[From left-to-right]

"God, I hope that nobody sees this. I'm only here because these idiots paid me to take the photos!"

"My butt-plug tickles!"

"God, I miss being a High School jock. Everyone used to love me. Please let me go back in time and do it again!"

"Who are these guys again? Crap, who cares anyway ... Good weed, man!"
One last encore presentation!

Random:

I was curious about Kennedy's magazine and since he provided a freebie code ("atariage") at the AtariAge forum...I downloaded all the magazines on my phone. I have only just started looking at the first issue, but it seems decent thus far...

I have read that the quality/direction of the magazine takes a turn at some point.

That was FANTASTIC! :)

However, it would be CRIMINAL for the Coleco Chameleon Debacle (CCD) to not receive the same silent film treatment.

I hope that Triumph of the Retro II is created!

Also, do you think that folks recognize that the title is an allusion to the Nazi propaganda film? Even if this technically doesn't qualify under "Godwin's Law"...it is a hilarious hint that evil is lurking in video game land.

Agreed, that was so much fun to watch. :)

Also, I started reading Retro magazine because of this thread (and the one at AtariAge)...so, sadly, I can claim that Kennedy touched me. He touched my life. He touched my funny bone. He touched my soul.

Oh, no doubt it will happen.
There's so much material from all the comedy of errors, that, as you say, it would be criminal for it not to get made. :P

I know a % of people may be tired of this thread, but I ran into this Pat NES Punk video on my SmartTV's YouTube app which definitely deserves inclusion for all time, if not already! Poor Million Dollar Mike...just got duped around at every turn...victim of "The Mysterious Mister Lee..." And bump with this classic from previous pages: Poor Million Dollar Mike, he had a dream...a dream to scheme...but another scheming schemer got the better of 'im... Hahaha!

"The winning team" indeed...

Everywhere you turn, choke jobbers and ball droppers. Is that the crux of it? I'm assuming it is. I haven't heard it.

If that's the case, I sorta have to agree with him. The best way to do something right is to do it yourself. The problem is that if the guy has any skills at all they don't seem to be related in any way to making a console. He's exactly the guy you fire to get rid of the choke jobbers and ball droppers. He's management, marketing, etc. Things that are nothing but dead weight for a company with 0-4 employees.
