I could and would be willing to help aswell as write things. I own many a retro console and I consider it to be quite an extensive collection. I also own two arcade machines aswell as possessing quite a bit of all arround knowledge of most consoles and games.

Also I think it would be fun.

Like design and such? We totally need someone to do that to work on that so we can have something to type on.

So just wondering, Were you thinking like a blog type format were we can submit articles freely or would we for example send the articles/news etc to you or someone to upload. Obviously this would probably be planned later on, Just wondering if you had any preliminary ideas?

I could help with the site, I'm ok with HTML.
We should have a database of all the old games and reviews for at least the popular ones.

well i figure it would be done kind of like a blog but i would determine whether your allowed to post articles or not and we could occaisionaly review old games and have a database like vskid said

You could run a content management system like Joomla or PHP-Nuke... That would probably be more flexible than something like WordPress.
