2025/11/21

If you had dabbled in retro games pre-COVID (yes, we know that was a lifetime ago), you may have noticed that there wasn’t much in the way of appeal for retro games. It was there, but retro gaming seemed to be the sole domain of ‘gamers’. When COVID hit, things changed. Retro game prices shot […] The post Exploring how retro and modern games appeal to Irish players appeared first on Old School Gamer Magazine.

2025/11/21

Neon lights. Sticky floors. The clatter of coins. Growing up in the 80s or 90s often meant a visit to an arcade. And it’s the arcade environment you probably remember more than the individual games played. They were bright, noisy, chaotic little worlds. A place where “one more go” could last an entire afternoon. That […] The post How iGaming Has Successfully Emulated the Feel of Old School Arcades appeared first on Old School Gamer Magazine.

A review of the iMP Gaming Mini Arcade Pro

Old School Gamer Magazine ·

2025/11/21

It’s been eight years now since the release of the Nintendo Switch. Given how the Switch was (initially anyway) premised as a device with all sorts of potential for controller connectivity options, it’s a bit surprising there aren’t more options for alternate shells. Despite being late to the game, iMP has made a fairly […] The post A review of the iMP Gaming Mini Arcade Pro appeared first on Old School Gamer Magazine.

When it comes to one-on-one fighting games, the Commodore 64 is generally not the go-to system. While there were a few impressive entries during the long history of the system, such as Way of the Exploding Fist and the International Karate series, C64 gamers never received a fighter in the vein of Street Fighter II […] The post SNK vs Capcom: Stronger Edition – Interpreting a portable classic appeared first on Old School Gamer Magazine.

Flying the Not-So-Friendly Skies: TaleSpin for the NES

Old School Gamer Magazine ·

2025/11/16

In retrospect, the concept behind Disney’s TaleSpin cartoon was hilariously bizarre. It took several of the principal characters from the 1967 animated film The Jungle Book, and placed them in a world that was a mix between Indiana Jones and Casablanca, with just a hint of Star Wars. Baloo the Bear become a blend of […]The post Flying the Not-So-Friendly Skies: TaleSpin for the NES appeared first on Old School Gamer Magazine.
