Mario Santa

It’s less than 2 hours (UK) to go till Christmas and hanging from the RetroGameDepot Christmas tree, there is a rather cheerful Xmas Mario. By far the best decoration on the tree, one found originally in a Florida shopping mall from a family holiday years ago.

Daze Before Christmas (Megadrive / SNES)

For the ‘depot, this decoration is a reminder that there can always be retro gaming goodies under the tree. Even if they are a memory of pixel filled Christmas from years gone by. 19 Years ago (or 20 for the US/JP readers) there could have been a brand new Sega Megadrive waiting for you the following morning.Maybe a Super Nintendo waiting to be unwrapped from ‘92 (EU) or a Commodore 64 back in the mid-eighties.

Maybe some of you lucky ones will be getting a stocking full of Retro games this year.

Whatever it might be, RetroGameDepot just wants to wish all its friends a very Merry Christmas and happy new year. And for the shoppers, feel free to make the most of the following 10% off Christmas coupon! Type RGDXMAS09 at the checkout.

And if you’re wanting to make the most of the Christmas spirit, but still play a few games, why not give Daze Before Christmas (Megadrive / Super Nintendo) a quick whirl? It is Christmas after all… Have a good one!

Just a quick update! Its been quite a while since I’ve been able to update the shop, blog or YouTube channel.
So with the free time I had, I focused on something that should be rather helpful.

There is now a new page on the shop, showcasing the last 50 or so games to have been added to the store.
Now the regular shoppers won’t need to browse though the same items twice. Enjoy!
