Hey everyone, it's nothing to get super excited about yet, but PopCap Games has returned ownership of VintageGamer.com to me. Just for fun, I'm rebuilding a small version of the site in FrontPage 4.0 just like it was 10 years ago. (A task I already regret starting.) I'll try to have the title lists and rarity guides for the NES and SNES that the old VintageGamer.com had back up sometime soon and I'll be doing a little blogging. Getting new Message Boards up are definitely the immediate priority though. This version is just for fun and just to get something back up at the domain. Fortunately my web design abilities are a hell of a lot better than they were 10 years ago so I'll start working on a much more modern and cool looking site later this summer.

There is no definitive vision for the new VintageGamer.com... it'll probably just a melting pot of cool classic gaming stuff. Once I move next year, I want to try and rent out a back room in a bar and put in a small classic arcade. (I now own about a dozen machines and need to do something with them!) So it will be a website for my small arcade room if that ever materializes, also for NES stuff, and maybe just a cool place for more mature gamers to rant and rave about anything from Pole Position II to Gran Turismo 5.

I know I'm very short on content right now, I know it looks like crap... I was trying to recreate what it looked like 10 years ago, and there is a lot to do and stuff to fix... but I though I'd go ahead and announce VintageGamer.com's return. It's far from awesome yet, but I will be trying to add something to it everyday. Please stop by if you have a moment, but do not expect anything that is even 1/100th of what AtariAge is... at least not yet. :)
