Ok, so why would I create a website that lists independent retro game shops in the UK?
Well, firstly, I am a retro games collector myself (well, mainly retro consoles, rather than games), and I have visited many shops on the list.
Stores I have visited so far include:
- Doorway to Dorkness, Doncaster (review)
- Entertainment World, Birmingham
- Game On, Stoke (review)
- Game Pad, Stoke
- Get Gaming, Dudley (review)
- Hidden Chest Gaming (review)
- Old Skool Gaming, Brierley Hill (review)
- Joypad Joy, Dudley
- Lees Games, Morecambe (review)
- Retrosix, Stoke (review)
- Rewind Collectable & Games, Ashton-under-Lyne
- The Game Zone, Stoke (review)
- Vintage Gamer, Halesowen (review)
Secondly, I am making a video game about collecting retro games (working title: Retro Gamer Odyssey), and I am going to add in all of the stores in the UK into the game.
