NES-Bit.com



For my latest post I want to give a shout out to NES-Bit.com and heap some praise on it's owner/admin Lorfarius.

For those not in the know NES-Bit is a UK site dedicated to anything and everything related to the Nintendo Entertainment System and the PAL games and peripherials that were released for the system over the years.

Lorfarius has put a lot of love and care into the site and you can read here (http://www.nes-bit.com/?p=3223) as to why he has a passion for the NES and why he set up the site.

Going through the site you will find the following:
  • Database
  • Articles
  • Reviews
  • Magazines
  • NES Maintenance
  • Forum
The maintenance section is good for beginners to the NES as it covers cartridge cleaning (which is a lot more technical than blowing into the cartridge) and how to replace 72 pin adaptor which is a very useful guide.

The magazine section is a particular favourite of mine as it covers a few magazines that I used to read when growing up all those years ago including the likes of Nintendo Magazine System, N-Force and coming soon one of my all time favourite magazines, Total! It also features the Nintendo Official Sticker Album which I had completely forgotten about until reminded by the site.


Finally NES-Bit is about to launch a magazine and is currently looking for writers. The previews look gorgeous and if you are interested in writing for them take a look here (http://www.nes-bit.com/NesBitForum/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=343) and drop them a line.

So let's here it for NES-Bit.com and three cheers for Lorfarius.
