|  Re: Retro Gamer Issue Three..
Trouble is they were testing the water at first. There hasn't really been any retro gaming magazines to date of worthy mention except for the Edge Retro spin off titles and those were just back copies of Edge rolled into special editions.
I couldn't find the magazine at all when it came out and had to resort to Ebay. Thankfully I did at the time considering the auction prices. One good thing that came out of the popularity of the first issue is the frequency date of each issue.
Originally the mag was due to come out every three months by issue 2 that was increased to every other month and now on issue 3 it's now every 6 weeks.
There was a cracking quote on the Retro gamer forum from one of the mag's staff members and said something along the lines of "had I known the magazine was going to be this popular and getting £30 for each magazine on Ebay, we would have stop the distrubtion of the magazine and headed to Ebay!"
