Chicago Retro Gamer
Hey, what's up everyone!
I like to play videogames. It all started once upon an incredible Christmas morning when I unwrapped an NES, and played Super Mario Brothers for the next year straight. What started in the mid 80's as an obsession turned into a life-long adventure into magical new kingdoms, fascinating new worlds, and the ability to interact with incredibly imaginative new gaming characters and abilities.
I founded The Chicago Retro Gamer in order to create a fun, safe, and engaging community where gamers of all different walks of life can celebrate our shared passion of video games.
I lived in the great city of Chicago for many years, but now live in California. I was going to change the name of this group, but then an overwhelming sense of nostalgia kicked in :) Funny how that happens, right?
Please enjoy our channel, don't forget to subscribe and turn on notifications, and most importantly of all remember - damn it feels good to be a gamer!

So cool to see Bit Brigade play Mega Man X live!
If you ever get a chance to see them play, do it. It's pretty epic.

Just finished the Elliot demo, and honestly it was pretty solid.
It's like if you combined a modern day Link to the Past with Octopath Traveler. Both of those games are on my all-time favorite lists, so of course I was curious to play this demo.
All in all, I am super excited to see how the rest of this game pans out. It has some very good potential based on the demo so far.

Making it easy to order in Vancouver!
Excited to try out Kingyo Izakaya.
Any menu with a Famicom on it has to have good food :)

Finished Donkey Kong Bananza over the weekend, and just WOW.
What a great game, I will be replaying the end game just to relive it. It is that good.
Who finished it?
