Updates

I generally like to keep the comments section on posts and pages 100% open, but we have been receiving a massive influx of spam lately. This wreaks havoc with the site’s performance, annoys me, and makes it difficult for legitimate visitors to ask questions or share their thoughts.

All comments will be held for approval until the spam issue is resolved. Visitors are still welcome to leave comments on posts/pages, but they will not appear until they are approved. Do not worry if your comment does not show up right away, it will be approved as long as you are not trying to solicit something or linking to spammy sites.

I’m sorry if this causes an inconvenience to anyone, but I like to keep this site spam free for the sake of my sanity and to protect visitors from accidently clicking on a shady link.

This is long overdue seeing as how popular Game Boy is, but I finally got around to putting some save files together and adding a section for the handheld that started it all. Right now, only Super Mario Land 3: Wario Land saves are available. This will be followed up by Link’s Awakening and few other titles in the near future. Enjoy!

Game Boy/Game Boy Color Save Files

Since its inception, the list of games covered on this site has been labeled “Games by System”. Looking back, I wonder what I was thinking, because the label is pretty awkward. From now on, it will be known as “Game Catalog”, which hopefully makes more sense. I also hope that visitors like this change, so let me know if it doesn’t work.

On a side note, I have been hard at work expanding the NES section with cheats, so check out the “Game Catalog” if you’re looking for new NES content.

The coming year is going to bring a lot of changes for me, because I have another child on the way. I’ll be extra busy helping my wife for a good six months or so and I plan on taking it easy as far as expanding this site goes. I will still add new cheats and passwords on a weekly basis, but I am going to take a break from writing big walkthroughs.

That said, I will finish Shadow Hearts along with another guide I have been working on and hopefully get it posted by the end of December.

I’m looking forward to this break, because walkthroughs are really demanding projects and I have written quite a few of them over the years. That said, I’m going to play through a few games I wanted to cover and post their save files. I may also start on the Mega Man series for Game Boy and I will do boss guides for those games since they are less time intensive.

With any luck, I’ll get started on walkthroughs again in June. Feel free to add requests or suggestions for games that could use a brief guide, passwords, or a save file in the comment section.

RetroMaggedon.com may be down for a few hours on Monday 10/24 and Tuesday 10/25. The site is moving to a new, faster server and will have some downtime when we change DNS. This should only last a few hours and will likely occur late at night or early in the morning in many time zones, so the disruption will hopefully be minimal. Additionally, there will not be a password or cheat code posted on the week of 10/23/2022 due to the site migration. I apologize for any inconvenience or disappointment this may cause.

I’m happy to say this project has a new team member, FoxOne, who also happens to be my daughter. Lately she has helped out a lot with transcribing and testing the many cheats and passwords that are posted on this site every month. While this does not change a lot on the surface, it is a big help to me, since testing all this stuff can be difficult with just one person. Her assistance has also made it possible to post cheats for two games a week instead of just one, so thanks for your help FoxOne!

I’m going to retire this post for a while. Family and work obligations have made it difficult for me to keep a schedule and I am just going to publish things when I can for a year or so. Sorry if this inconveniences anyone that was using this post to keep updated.
