Happy Video Games Day! Level Up Your Game With Our Top Gamer Treats...
Happy Video Games Day everyone!! Whether you're a fan of Nintendo, PlayStation, X-Box, Sega, mobile gaming or even retro classics like Atari or the Commodore, today is the day to shut those curtains tight, stock up on snacks and game the day away!
In celebration I'm going to list the favourite gaming moments I've had throughout my life and would love to hear some of your own!
This is where it all started, my first ever video game on the NES! A truly iconic game that has stood the test of time, I'll never forget discovering the Mushroom Kingdom for the first time. Mario is still going strong too, every one of his games is almost guaranteed to be an exciting play!
The very first Pokemon game on the Game Boy! Everyone had their own favourite starter (mine was Squirtle) and who can forget catching their very first Pikachu!? There were 151 to catch in this first game (did anyone manage to get a Mew?) which seems like a tiny amount compared to the 800+ there are now!
Happy Video Games Day!
We would like to wish you all a very happy Video Games Day!! If you're a retro gamer with a taste for anything in pixels we've got a great selection of Video Game T-Shirts and other treats you're sure to love.

Retro gaming has never looked so cool!
Weâve just found out about an amazing exhibition thatâs happening in far away Los Angeles. âSuper I Am 8 Bitâ is a group art show where over 100 artists re-imagine their 80's gaming fantasies, delusions and secret desires via all sorts of media - painting, sculpture, plush, and even some more interactive experimentation. Get ready to see some classic computer game characters as you've never seen them before!
Check out this awesome flyer for the event, which features some of my favourite characters like Mario, Pac-Man, Sonic and Mega Man all leaping out into action from underneath Princess Peachâs skirt!
This short video shows one of the past events, and is a glimpse of the kind of goodies that you might expect to see at the new 2011 version. Keep your eyes peeled for a DJ using a GameBoy as a soundsystem!
For more information visit http://iam8bit.com/. It all sounds right up my street, itâs just a shame itâs so far away! Hereâs hoping that the exhibition can find itâs way to the UK at some point soon, don't keep a Nintendo fan boy waitingâ¦
