The Retro League Podcast features discussion about the latest retro gaming news, re-releases, community developments and reviews of our favorite games.
This week:
This week the government is selling some beat up arcade games and we’re prank calling tech support. We wonder if the fans of Chrono Trigger care more about it than SquareEnix does. We celebrate the founding of Dragon Quest’s developers and we’ve got a pair of classic arcade shooters in this episode of the Retro League.

The lack of updates had a reason and has to do with the improved General Data Protection Regulation law, taking effect during May 2018 in the European Union. It took us a while, but data protection should be a lot better. We run on HTTPS now, got rid of Google Analytics, decreased external calls to a minimum (and trying to decrease further!). This all should result in a better privacy for every visitor here. Please keep in mind this is a non-profit hobby project and not a professional service, still your privacy is important to us.
Alien Attack is a homebrew Atari VCS game by easmith. It’s a 4k tiny shooter game, fully written in Assembler. This one seems to be the real final version now.
