Rllmuk Forum

Not strictly a site but a forum, this place is full of nice peeps who chat about games and stuff all day long. A nice place to be.

The Castlevania Dungeon

The Castlevania Dungeon

Castlevania is my favourite videogame series bar none, and this is the best resource on the net without a shadow of a doubt. Information about the games, characters, music and artwork can all be found here.

If you're a fan of Sega music then you'll probably mess your pants when you see (or should that be hear?) what this site offers. Streamed Sega tunes! All the live-long day!

Digital Media company run by Rich Leadbetter and Gary Harrod - well worth checking out!

Retro Stores

Genki Video Games

Genki Video Games

One of our favourite online video game stores, Genki has pretty much every classic game you could possibly wish for, with a strong focus on imported titles. Super Famicom, Megadrive, PC Engine, Saturn, Playstation...you name it, Genki has it! The prices are excellent and they also ship worldwide and accept Paypal.

Console Passion

Console Passion

Every retro format under the sun, plus plenty of stock and a decent service.

Videogameimports

Videogameimports

Not strictly a 'retro' store, they also stock all the most up-to-date consoles too. They tend to dabble mainly in imported stock (hence the snappy title). They know their stuff and the service is excellent.

PlayAsia

An excellent selection of all things imported - be it retro games, modern games, videogame soundtracks or even videogame-related toys.
