Introduction to my site

 

Welcome to 8bitplus

I decided to create this page as a way of showing off some of my projects as well as my ever growing collection of video game hardware and software.

So Why 8Bitplus? Well, because that’s my main area of interest. My collection mainly consists of consoles and games from the late 80’s to the present day. I would never deny that there were some great games before the NES and Mastersystem, but they never caught my attention the way that later games do.

 

My site has been up for over two year now and has had over  20000 unique visits. I still have plenty more projects and articles for 2010.

Thanks for visiting.

4-4-10 Some problems and improvements:

 

Seems like the collection gallery has sopped working no I have moved over to Serif X4 suite.

Should have it fixed soon.

 

I have not have many new additions to my collection of late. Most of the time from about September last year I have been concentrating on building up my Laserdisc collection. More on that soon.

 

If you look over to the left you can see a link to my games collection on Collectorz Connect, and I also added a quick link to NoLife Radio. They stream none stop games music and theme tunes.  Have a listen sometime.
