+swlovinist Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 There are alot of topics on the Retron 77. I am asking if it is time for the Retron 77 to have its own subforum? There will be many topics I believe that will pertain to this moving forward and wanted to ask if this is a good idea and if it can be implemented. Thoughts? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mockduck Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 The Retron 77 talk should technically probably go into the Dedicated Systems forum, but since it's got the 2600/VCS peeps focused on it, folks are talking about it here. I'd imagine eventually the talk will migrate to the Dedicated Systems forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+save2600 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 I sure hope so! Will result in less noise in the real Atari forums. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NISMOPC Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 I'd agree that all of the Retron77 posts should/could be consolidated into it's own Sub-Forum... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flojomojo Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Maybe there should be a Clone System subforum. Once the newness of the 77 wears off, traffic should die down. It doesn't strike me as a forever system (though I'd love to be proven wrong) 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Thag Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 It should get it's own forum. Between the newbies that it will (hopefully) draw here, all the tech/patch/tinkering posts, and the general nerd rage and grousing etc, it's gonna need it's own place to live.

Keatah Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 The Kevtris stuff is still stuck in a single thread. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBeefy Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 I am thinking it probably does. Maybe put it under the 2600 forum? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hizzy Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Retron 77 and the ataribox need their own forums. These two things have been harshing my atari mellow for a few months. It's still the best forum for 2600 stuff, but these discussions have pretty much hijacked the forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keatah Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Make the new forum look like a dumpster. One of the systems is genuinely born out of a dumpster. The other does it for a living! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coolcrab Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 I'd be for this too, just to have all topics on it in one place. Maybe move all relevant topics to dedicated systems? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alex_79 Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 I agree that it would be better to move the retron77 stuff outside the 2600 forums. I think the "classic gaming general" subforum would be a good choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atarifan88 Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 (edited) You can move it to a new subform called "The Broken and Buggy!" Edited July 22, 2018 by atarifan88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
