Contact Retro 247 about a retro game entry
The most useful message this archive receives is a correction. Statuses change, publishers move, and a reader who knows something the record does not is the only way that gets fixed.
Where to write
One address, read by a person.
Corrections, additions and questions go to [email protected].
There is no contact form on this page, deliberately. A form needs a script, a submission endpoint and somewhere for the data to sit, all of which is a great deal of apparatus for a message that an email address delivers perfectly well. It also means nothing on this page collects anything about you.
What makes a report useful
Anything checkable. If a game has become available again, the address it is sold from is worth more than the news that it exists. If a studio has an owner nobody here established, a page where they say so settles it. If a status is wrong, the thing that shows it is wrong is the useful part of the message.
This is not a demand for formality — a one-line note saying a link is broken is genuinely helpful. It is a note about what can be acted on. This archive states plainly where it does not know something, and the way those gaps get closed is somebody supplying the piece that closes them.
Reports about the several entries that name no publisher are especially welcome. Those gaps are real and they are marked as gaps precisely so that they can be filled by somebody who knows rather than by somebody guessing.
What this address is not for
It is not a route to the games. Nothing here is hosted or distributed, and a request for a copy of a title this archive lists cannot be answered — not as a matter of policy alone, but because there is nothing to send. Where a game is still sold, its entry links to whoever sells it, and that link is the whole of what can be offered.
It is not a submissions inbox either. This archive documents a closed period: the games covered between 2004 and 2010 and the machines they ran on. A newly released game in the retro idiom is a different subject, and there are active publications that cover it properly.
Requests to add a commercial link, to place an advertisement or to arrange coverage in exchange for anything are declined. There is no advertising here and no affiliate arrangement, which is stated on the privacy page and is the reason the outbound links can be read as ordinary references rather than as placements.
What happens to a correction
A confirmed correction changes the entry and the entry gets a new check date. Statuses on this site are dated because they are perishable, and a silent edit that leaves the old date in place would be worse than no edit at all — it would assert that the old date verified the new claim.
Where a correction cannot be confirmed either way, the entry says so. That is not a fudge; it is the accurate description of a claim that has been made and not established, and it is more useful to a reader than an unattributed change.
Where a report shows this archive was simply wrong, the entry is corrected without ceremony. The current check date across the site is 31 July 2026.
Questions about getting in touch
How do I report a broken or hijacked link?
Email [email protected] with the page it is on. Hijacked links matter especially: at least one address in this archive answers normally while serving a completely unrelated commercial site, and that is only catchable by reading pages.
Why is there no contact form?
Because an email address does the same job with no script, no submission endpoint and nowhere for data to sit. Nothing on this page collects anything about the reader.
Will a correction be credited?
The entry will carry a new check date. The archive is published without individual bylines and does not publish the names of people who write in, unless they specifically ask for that.
