Well, I have pretty much covered as many of the most popular arcade games from 1983 and earlier that I planned on covering. There are a few lesser titles that I could do, but I would like to get back to working on the Famicom games. However, we have managed to amass a nice sizable number of games in the Arcade and MAME categories, over 250 and 200 respectively. So I figured now would be a good time to make some announcements on related sites, such as MAMEWorld, MAME.net, ArcadeControls.com and AtariAge which also serves as a huge retro gaming community hub. With any luck, it will drum up some interest and we'll see some new user accounts getting created that actually get used. Just wanted to share the news.

:This is potentially /.able... If we do make a "press release" create an entry here somewhere, and then have that link to the relevant pages (and tell others to link to that location. Maybe our ''announcements'' section should be made into permalinks like CotM. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 21:20, 10 September 2007 (CDT) | :This is potentially /.able...

::Permalinks are a fantastic idea for news and press releases. I really like your thinking about this, Procyon. We can definitely use this particular news to generate more interest in SW, and I think various news sites and communities will like to post it for us. As for Slashdot, I would prefer to publish a general article about our site before we go and tell them about this accomplishment--we never attempted to get slashdotted before. There is no reason why we shouldn't get this Dugg rather immediately, though. Maybe as an additional bonus, we can include links to the various retro boxart pages you created. Those are pretty slick, too! :) <span style="border: 1px solid #888; padding: 1px">'''[[User:Echelon|echelon]]<sub>[[User_talk:Echelon|talk]]</sub>'''</span> 22:27, 10 September 2007 (CDT) | |||
