July 09 Heatwave

Lets face it - most of us will be out paying homage to the elusive sun God this month. As they haven't invented a sunbathing game yet, here at Retro-Games - we're juggling processing games with playing ping pong in the car park.

Well, we're pressing on with the new website. There's more product details to help you choose the right game. Each product page will have a list of offers and the condition of each game for sale will be described in full. Here's a preview the new site. But it's far from set in stone - so email us with suggestions.

We're also stocking up on PS2 and xBox so send a list if you have over 20 games for sale.

Mar 09... Dev work

The news page will be very boring for the next few months as we are only working on one project... a selling page for the website so you can get a quote for your games online. It's a big project because we need to change the site to SQL and also provide realtime prices for 25,000 games. We'll be buying games from PS3, Xbox 360 all the way through to Atari 2600 so dust off the games in the attic as we want them!

Feb 09 Office refit

As we can't sit around playing Little Big Planet all day, we're busy with an office refit and new dispatch area ready for the next busy period.

Jan 09 Stocktaking and hols

We're back from snowboarding with no broken limbs and the stocktake is done so it's business as usual.

Dec 08 Lean, mean and clean

The retail landscape has been remoulded over the past three months. How are we coping with it at Retro-Games? By getting down and dirty with the stock and working harder than ever before to get more games listed at keener prices.

Retro games business purchased Dec 07

Online game supplier Retro-Games has acquired the website and inventory of retro-games.co.uk. Both businesses operate in the used console games industry in the UK.

Retro-Games (online in 2000) stocks used games, systems and accessories for retro and classic games consoles and computers. Retro-Games started out stocking a range of NES, Megadrive, SNES and Spectrum games and games for niche platforms e.g. Vectrex and early handhelds (Wonderswan, NeoGeo Pocket). It hosts a retro museum and information pages for all retro games. The site also has retro-games programming info as well as freeware and in-house P.C. remakes of classic video games to download for free.
