Moving to Japan
February 27, 2009
That's right, we're moving to Japan. The Vintage Game Club, that is.
Since we began the club last July, we've grown to 288 members; collected over 3000 posts, and discussed 5 games...but we've yet to focus on a Japanese title. So, for our next playthrough, we're soliciting nominations for games developed in Japan, and you're invited to jump in and submit your suggestions.
We'll welcome nominations through 10pm EST this evening (apologies for the late notice). Then we'll choose a handful of finalists, take a few days to discuss them together, and hold an official vote. You'll need to join the club to submit a nomination (simple registration requiring an email address).
As I've mentioned before, we use the term "vintage" purposely because its primary definition - "Characterized by excellence, maturity, and enduring appeal" strikes us as just the right way to describe the games we play together. As far as we're concerned a vintage game can be 20 years old or 5 years old. For our purposes, it doesn't really matter.
You can submit your nominations here. Happy gaming!
