Peter Leigh (the Nostalgia Nerd) who has taken his addiction of retro consoles and turn it into a successful YouTube channel has curated a new book that adds to the preserve the history games and gaming consoles in his own special way. Is is a book worthy of your bookshelf? Let’s find out!

Gaming history is important to preserve. Many restore old consoles and games but there are also several book out there that have a visual history of video games. The Game Console: A Photographic History from Atari to Xbox is one of those books. But this book sets itself apart from the rest.

The NEOGEO was the pinnacle of video gaming. An elite, exclusive console that didn’t just emulate the arcade experience – as so many 8 and 16-bit consoles tried to do – it was the arcade experience, pixel for pixel on your TV at home. NEOGEO: a visual history is the first officially licensed NEOGEO art book of its kind released in the English language released by Bitmap Books. Have they produced the bible for the NEOGEO fan?

Did you know there are new NES and Genesis games released in 2017? Enter Mega Cat Studios who is producing high quality releases for the NES and Genesis. The Gamers Lounge was luck enough to be able to check out some of their 2017 releases. 

Over the past few years books about video games have been very popular kickstarter with Artcade, the Genesis Collected Works and more. Bitmap books have been on the for front releasing several high quality books in their Visual Compendium Series. The series includes Commodore 64, Amiga and ZX Spectrum. After a very successful Kickstarter the forth book NES/Famicom has officially been released. Does it get the Nintendo Seal of Quality? 

This past April Geek Line Publishing ran a successful Kickstarter to fund their next book. The Nintendo 64 Anthology, the ultimate guide to everything N64 and celebrating the 20th anniversary of the system. Raising over €67,000 (or $70,000 US) the campaign surpassed their goal and now has offically been released. Is this book a fitting tribute to the N64?

Most gamers from the 70's, 80's and even the 90's remember the arcades. Tim Nicholls is one of those people and he has taken his passion for the art of the arcade and turned it into a book. Not only is Artcade a book of just arcade game art, it is a lasting record of the golden era of video games that any gamer would enjoy.
