We’ve had some new blood, some new arcade game blogs pop up since this writing. Here are two that have seen some recent postings that are still growing…

Always glad to see self written content being published by collectors, the results will always be higher in Google than arcade forums…

@all

Cool to see a spike in posts soon after I wrote my article on the pre-existing arcade game blogs. Surprised I didn’t hear from everyone….

I know there are a couple more;

Stupid Gamer – http://www.stupidgamer.com/
Robot Gamer – http://robotgamer.blogspot.com/

But these sites talk more about modern gaming than classic upright arcade stuff in general. They are worth checking out, but if you are looking for classic stuff only these 4-5 are more in line with that generation of arcade games.

Sounds like all of you didn’t necessarily know about the other arcade blogs. Does that mean you don’t know anymore than these 5? You don’t have any other classic arcade blogs to add to the list do you?

Hey, looks like I’m the last Jeff to check in. Since I’m the old timer here, I get the name! I really hope none of you guys pick Jeffy, or I’m pulling your link from my blog.

Rothe, thanks for your help as I started transitioning to a blog. I still have a ton of stuff to convert, so hopefully I have even more information on what I’ve done in the 10+ years of collecting. Jeff Rothe is a great source of knowledge in blogging and a pretty good collector friend!

As for the rest of you guys (Jeffs and non-Jeffs), I’ve been hopping into your sites now and again. I’ll verify that I have links to each of your blogs. You all do a great job!

Ditto’d, thanks for the kind words and the link to my site. I knew about most of the these, but will be adding them all to my daily reading.

I’m a pretty big WordPress fan these days….it’s so much easier than any other CMS I have tried. Still tweaking the site design. I think I finally found a theme I like, now I just need to work on customizing it.

Thanks again!

Hey thanks for the kind words Jeff!

I can’t take credit for the entire site though. We have a talented team of devotees that assist me on a regular basis helping track down stories, fixing site problems and generally just being there on a moments notice if I or anybody else sees anything that needs fixed or written about.

Without them, I’m sure I would have gone crazy long ago.

Keep up the good work! You’ve got a wealth of information on this site.
