The year was 2012. I wanted to build a website because it felt like something productive to do with the very small amount of spare time that I had when my first child was born. I started a property buying guide website which is called propertynotepad.co.uk which still exists today.
I used a service that I can't remember the name of to build it but then I wanted more customisation of the website to make it look unique so I found Blogger by Google which made customisation fairly simple.
At this point, I realised that there was only so much I could write about the property buying process and decided that if I was using Blogger to build a website I should start something new that I could write forever about.
I looked at football as something I could talk about forever but it felt overplayed with too many footy blogs. After compiling a list of potential topics I thought about video games as a potential but yet again it felt like there were heaps of other people blogging about video games.
Although at this point in 2012 it didn't feel like the Retro Gaming scene had as many people blogging about it. So I went with a retro gaming-themed blog in order to rekindle my love of video games from my youth.
