mos6502 Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 I'm looking to start a group for 8-bit computer and console fans here in St. Louis, Missouri. If you live here and have an interest, please speak up! I'm a C64 and Atari 2600 guy mainly, but due to the sparse distribution of old-school enthusiasts and my own curiosity toward other platforms, any 8 or 16 bit systems are most welcome. Showcasing hardware, playing games on, hacking, making music/graphics etc. etc. on these systems, with no formal agenda yet... if this sounds fun to you, post or PM. No special skills or hardware required (thanks to emulators). -Owen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mos6502 Posted March 28, 2017 Author Share Posted March 28, 2017 All these years later and I had forgotten about this post, at that time I was trawling a number of boards (including some I don't frequent regularly) to find like-minded people and this one got away from me. Sorry guys. The group did happen and is called the STL Classic Computing and Retrogaming Club, you can find it here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/429635153738633/ We ended up going with a Facebook group, since it was free and most people already have an account. We've had many meetups and even a few events at the Basement Arcade (the owner is part of the group). The meetups have dropped off as I've got 2 kids now and I've always had a serious interest in music and synthesizers as well (which ties in well to the retro scene) - I'm still interested and present, just no energy to plan stuff for the time being. Hope anyone who would have been interested, either already found us or will now 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
