Welcome to Retromags, the vintage video game magazine archive

Welcome to Retromags, the vintage video game magazine archive. This site is all about digitally preserving video game magazines from yesteryear. You'll find hundreds of full issues to download and thousands of scanned magazine covers. Game magazines used to be incredibly important to the game industry, and while those days are long gone thanks to the Internet and World Wide Web, that does not mean those old magazines shouldn't be remembered and enjoyed today. This site allows you to do so easily and digitally. It's a nice alternative to having to have boxes of magazines stored in your house if that's something you don't want.

We are always looking for help, be it scanning or donating magazines, or contributing to the site in other forms. It costs nothing to be a member of this site. We do not sell anything on this site, and there are no ads. There are no profits made on this site; any money that is ever obtained by this site goes towards the cost of hosting the site.

A Note to Publishers and Content Owners
This site is set up to digitally preserve video game magazines from 1999 and earlier for current magazines. The rules for defunct magazines vary on a case-by-case basis. We do this because issues of these magazines are not readily available from publishers/content owners. While we don’t have legal permission, we operate in a way where we do not release anything that will reduce any potential income for you, or magazines that are available from you, nor do we release scans that are of a quality that may reflect poorly on you. So far this has worked, with several publishers/content owners basically ignoring our existence.

However, if you wish that we do not make content that you legally have ownership available on this site, just let us know and we will remove it. While we would prefer permission, we will fully oblige with your wishes concerning your content. This is a hobby we do out of passion and love for the video game magazines of yesterday, and not worth legal battles of any kind.

    Hey, have you ever seen the movie version The Girl Next Door? It's based on a story by Ketchum. I haven't checked it out yet but it's on my Netflix Instant Queue, just wondering if it's worth my time. I have the story around somewhere but I haven't had the chance to read it yet.

    Yes, I'm afraid it's true Areala, you are a huge blabbermouth. But now that I've brought it to your attention maybe you can get some help with this problem. Just kidding, I simply meant that Retromags is a lot more interesting when your around. :)

    Hey Areala. I liked that Edge of Dawn song that you posted in the Shoutbox, reminded me of Depeche Mode and Interpol. Hope the move goes smoothly. :)

    Your avatar is Yoko Ritona, from the anime Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, which is just called Gurren Lagann in the US. I just came to thank you for writing about Borderlands in your blog, because it made me find this site, and then I saw your comment below. :)

    To be honest, I don't know where she came from...I found the avatar online about a year ago and saved her. She's got red hair like me, though I'm nowhere near as well-endowed, so I thought she'd be an eye-catching choice. Maybe she lures all the readers to my blog...who knows? :)

    That's such a great avatar. Not just for it's bouncy charm's, which I have to say do a lot for me. But also because it's just so cute. I'm guessing she comes from a fighting game.

    Just read your "So you bought a Crappy Game" blog. Really enjoyed it, some excellent constructive and destructive idea's to heal the pain of buying a crappy game. Hope you feel better and for what it's worth, the way you write, I'm sure it's only a matter of time before someone is paying you to write professionally.
