The Nintendo 64 Section is Live!

The long overdue N64 section is complete can be found in the Games by System menu on this site or accessed via the link below. Right now we only have info on three games, but that will change as I get cheats and passwords together. With any luck, I’ll be able to get cheats/passwords together for some of the more major games on the N64 together quickly.

February is going to be dedicated to fleshing out RetroMaggedon’s N64 library as well as that of the Sega Saturn, PlayStation 2, and Game Boy Advance.

Nintendo 64 Section Incoming!

RetroMaggedon.com has been around for nearly six years and I have yet to add a section for the N64. If all goes as planned, that will change in February when we add the iconic console to our list. While I want to keep the details of what games will be covered a surprise, I will say that a few of the most famous N64 games will have saves and/or cheat codes available on this site thanks to the efforts of Hirimaru.

The Sega Saturn will also get a bit of much needed attention over the next few months and I plan to add some stuff for Dreamcast before the year is out.

As always, thanks for using this site!

Finished Touching up Description Pages

I started fixing the home pages for games back in April and finally finished the project yesterday. There was a lot more than I expected and I took a break for a few months, so it took a while. Aside from a few technical improvements that modernized the description pages, the main change has been to the galleries. Many of the galleries on older pages were not formatted properly and did not look good on mobile devices. Of course that’s been changed. I’ve also added links back the the home page for the platform the game appeared on as well as outbound links to other sites with pertinent information. Hopefully things will look and work a bit better with all that done.

A New Logo for a New Era

Here’s a logo I came up with for 2021 and beyond. It’s styled after one of my favorite franchises, Mega Man. RetroMaggedon has grown a lot over the past year, so I wanted to change the look of the site a bit. I’m probably going to keep this one up for a few years, because I finally feel like I have gotten to the point where I kinda sorta almost know what the hell I’m doing and I consider this a new era for this site. I’m not exactly sure how a new banner relates to that, but it just seems right if that makes sense. I’ll also add that I don’t really plan on changing how I do things in any radical way. My plan was for this to be an old style website that was mainly focused on providing gamers with useful info for their favorite games and that allows them interact with the site freely. There’s no reason to change something that works, so I’ll just stay focused on providing everyone with passwords, saves, cheats, and walkthroughs as well as the occasional review. As always, thanks for all the support you have shown just by visiting this site!

Improvements Coming to Description Pages

For starters, this isn’t an Aprils fool’s joke even though it’s April 1st. I’ve started improving the home pages for games that appear on this site by adding outgoing links to other sites that have useful/interesting resources and a link that allows users to directly visit the console page. This should make it slightly easier to get around the site and find information that we may not have. I generally link to smaller, independent sites, because anyone can find a Wikipedia article talking about a game with a simple search. It’s going to take a while to update all of the pages, because we’ve covered somewhere in the area of 200 games over the years. Feedback on the quality of these changes is appreciated as always.

Comments are back up

Earlier this week we had a major problem with spam as well as a few technical difficulties that culminated in the comment section getting shutdown for a few days. The problem has been solved (for now) and everything should be working. Once again, I’m sorry if this has caused any inconvenience. People often comment on pages with questions about games or how to get things like saves and passwords to work, so I try to keep the lines of communication as open as possible. At the same time, bots tend to post dubious links and solicitations that present potential security threats. It goes without saying that I want to make sure anyone using RetroMaggedon.com does not have to worry about clicking a bad link accidently and can contact us easily, so it’s sometimes necessary to take action when the spam gets out of hand. Hopefully we will have smooth sailing for a while. Feel free to contact us with any questions or comments.

Comments are Temporarily Disabled

RetroMaggedon has grown a lot in the past month and I’m really grateful for the support. Unfortunately, we’re experiencing a massive influx of spam comments. While I like to keep comments open so everyone can share questions and opinions freely, I’ve had to temporarily turn comments off until I can come up with a countermeasure. Hopefully everything will be back to normal in a day or two. I’m very sorry if this has caused any problems, but the security of this site and its users are among my top priorities.
