Thanks, been a real labour of love but proud of how things have gone.

Just announced that I'm going to attempt a magazine/booklet for the site. Asking people to get involved, write an article etc so please have a look at some of the designs we have already:

Sep 2011 at 21:46 I've been toying with the idea of a fanzine/magazine for the site for awhile now and finally decided to do something about it! http://www.nes-bit.com/NesBitForum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=343 Had quite a few volunteers involved and we have a good 26 pages under our belt but looking for more!

Couple of page samples to show off what we have done so far things are really moving fast now. A lot of people have worked hard on this and it's really coming along nicely so I would rather the work speak for itself::

In case anyone is worried there's a good mix of PAL and US stuff, even mention of the GameBoy in a NES standoff. Tried to cover as much as possible for a first issue and think there's enough for all to enjoy!

I know a few of you have been looking forward to this but Issue 2 has finally been announced:

For those thinking the text in the left column is the articles... not this time. Just easy place holders to fill the space!

So far the team have started on several articles and some highlights include:

Religion in NES games
Castlevania (Cover) Special - A look at the NES series and some of its unique stand out points
Big Dan's Cheat Section makes a return
A look at some of the NES's Shooters
8bit wars - Classic systems go head to head
Zelda Special
Japanese Import Special
And much, much more

It will be available as a PDF like the last issue with some printed copies being available at a later date eventually as well.

Suggestions for articles are always welcome.

What can you do to help? We are open to new writers and hope even more people will get involved. So drop me a line or stop by the site.
