RetroMaggedon 2019-2020 Logo

The site has a new logo to celebrate our coverage of the classic NES RPG, Final Fantasy. It is stylized after the Final Fantasy Origins title screen (which I will hopefully get around to working soon) and was created by my oldest daughter, who has done an excellent job. Special thanks to her and I hope everyone who visits RetroMaggedon enjoys it.

Introducing Quick Reviews

In an effort to streamline my reviews, I’ve decided to include the score and a list of important points about the game along with my standard in depth review. I’m also going to try to shorten the overall length of my reviews, because after covering roughly 75 titles, I often feel like I’m repeating myself and I do not want these reviews to become boring for me or the reader. With that said, this only applies to my reviews and not those of others who write for this site, since they have their own styles, which I feel are best left alone. Finally, I’m looking for ways to make my walkthroughs more convenient for visitors. Currently, I try to outline everything in a table of contents as well as place the actual walkthrough at or near the beginning, so readers do not have to scroll through pages of basic info to get to what they need. In the future I may end up splitting walkthroughs into sections.

Comments Enabled!

Our comments section has been closed for two years due to technical difficulties. I’ve recently found the time to fix the problem and all visitors are welcome to share their thoughts, criticisms, observations, and feelings here on RetroMaggedon.com. Right now the system is rather stripped down, but this is something of a beta run and improvements will be implemented over time. Special thanks to our first poster who has shared some helpful Shatterhand secrets that I missed when I wrote the short guide for it. I also apologize to guests who have been unable to comment until now. Feedback is very important to me (and everyone else involved in this project) and I look forward to input from our users.

New Look!

RetroMaggedon.com now has a new style, which is part of an ongoing effort to improve the overall experience for our visitors. We hope that you find this site both easier to navigate and read. Feedback its always welcome, so feel free to let us know what you think!

Improvements Coming to the Save Archive

A number of changes and improvements are in the works for this website. The Save Archive, which is one of our most popular features, will see an upgrade in the next few months that will include:

-A more streamlined menu. Saves will be organized according to system rather than the emulator they were generated on.

-Every save available for a particular game will be bundled into a single file that will be placed at the top of the list so users can quickly download files if they wish.

-An updated FAQs will be added to the Save Archive home page.

 

New Logo!

RetroMaggedon now has a new logo inspired by the NES classic, Ninja Gaiden. This in keeping with the tradition of the original banner which was loosely based on the Legend of Zelda series. More improvements are on the way as we work on cleaning the site up a bit and making it more functional.
