At one point I had over 500 gaming magazines. So many in fact that the floor literally fell out from all of the weight.

I now have no where that many as I have worked to thin my collection in trade for cash to pay bills over the years. I know what a near complete set of Gamefan Magazine and over 150 issues of EGM (#3 up) have for a real market value, circa 5 years ago. Lol

As mentioned by @Modernzorker already, him, me, and a few others from the online group we run with were involved in some of the issues from the rebooted Gamefan magazine. I also worked with them via Out of Print Archive to bring digital editions of the classic Diehard Gamefan Magazine to life.

I was also involved with jumpstarting the preservation activities of Steve Harris - owner of EGM. We parted ways shortly after things started because I simply could not keep up with the workload of scanning several issues a week and editing them (considering each page could take up to a minute or two to simply scan - and many later issues had over 300 pages).

I am not sure when they will, if ever, launch the EGM digital archive but it is coming. Just takes time to complete the workload that Steve wants done before launching.

Out of Print Archive works with many publishers out of the United Kingdom to release official, free, digital copies of old gaming publications. Me being from the USA I have never seen most of the issues being released there. Some fun reading.

I collected a few key issues of Compute!'s Gazette (the issue with The Hermit type-in program being my favorite). I wish I could find Ahoy!, RUN, etc. When they do appear on eBay they quickly run up in price if auction, or start outside my disposable income level if Buy it Now.

Modernzorker and me have worked on a few magazines of our own. Retro Gaming Magazine and Gaming on Batteries (five issues total between the two). One idea we had for the eventual reboot of RGM was to bring back the type-in program thanks to the popularity of BASIC interpreters for classic consoles. I think it could be quite cool and fun for those of us that remember the type-in program - and who doesn't want to be able to say they typed in a NES or Genesis game?
