This is my website, A Raccoon's Retrocade
Romp! This is mostly a place to post my ramblings on
this main blog page about retro video game collecting
and the collecting scene, as well as list my collection,
what I'm seeking and attempt to make connections with
other collectors!
Remember, just because it's my opinion, doesn't
particularly mean it's correct! To each their own~.

Stuff - July 10th 2019 |

Yup, got a
Wii U for ten dollars at a thrift store and it WORKED! So great! I Also
got an original Gameboy as part of winning a contest on AtariAge, and I
bought an Atari Lynx off Ebay. Collection is still going strong. |

Not a lot
to add. I sold off my 3DS/DS game collection. Still have consoles. Added
a Nintendo DS Lite and an Original 3DS to my collection! Also added a
Super SD System 3 for the PC-Engine/TurboGrafx-16.
Considering ''New'' 3DS now. Maybe! |

Huge
update done. Sorry for that guys. Wanted list waned considerably~
Collection list grew exponentially~ That's what I get for waiting so
long to get on updating I suppose, but now I have a lot of stuff I've
wanted for a while and am quite enjoying it all!
You are probably also are gonna see a 'rebranding' of
my personal website here to 'Retrocade Romp' rather than 'A Raccoon's
Retrocade Romp'. Shorter, punchier and name of a podcast like thing I'm
working on! |

Aquired! Atari Triumvate, ASSEMBLE! - Feb. 9th 2018 |
|
|
I now own
an Atari 5200 SuperSystem (2-port model!). Works. Came with three games.
(Frogger, Q*bert, Super Breakout.). Which means I now own all three main
Atari systems!
Well versions of them. I still need to get my hand
on an old style Atari, but I have at least the 'Junior' version of the
2600! |

If you can
see this, we're on a better host! I have an Atari 5200 on the way now,
along with the 7800 from last post-- and I bought that Action Max and
will be added to the collection soon with the other two new pieces! |

Have an
Atari 7800 and a mass of Intellivison games on the way! <3. Hopefully I
can close the Colecovision deal soon too. z.z. Also looking at the
obscure Action Max console a local seller has. Hrmmm. |

| The Old
Website Archive -
Jan. 23rd 2018 |
|
|
I've
decided to put my old website up in an archival form on this NEW website
here! You can find it in the
Misc.
Section up above! It's fun seeing what I had before, and what I need
to strive to reclaim. Bleh! |

New!? -

Found my
old website! The design was a little too old to use again, but I did
take the old TECHNICAL DOCs section and add it to this website! AtariAge
profile can now be found in the contact section.
Still trying to seal this deal for a Colecovision. I
want it baaaaad.
Gonna see about getting some of my things back
from my old friend. Mainly my Odyssey 2. He doesn't know what else I
left in the bag with him. I'm trying to remember, but nope, nothing! |

Going to be
changing the 'Video Archive' for a 'Want List' of things I want that
people may be interested in selling to me. Not doing much trading at the
moment as I only have 'One' of most things.
I figure I'll eventually get back to where I can
trade again in the next year or so. Gonna be moving the videos to 'Misc.
Stuff' I think. Just because I find these things neat. |

Layout to something more simple.

Welcome, A New
Website! - Dec. 28th 2017 |
|
|
Hello, welcome to A Raccoon's
Retrocade Romp! This is a person website that I,
Rocky Raccoon, aka: Daniel McMann uses to mainly
detail his Retrogame collection, meander about
specifics, link silly videos and wax poetic
about weird niche things I enjoy.
I used to run a similar website at 'cooncaderomp.cjb.net',
but that website is lost to time since a move in
2006, since things go really bad for me. I'm
back in a good space now.
Well that's it for now. I'll write later as the
site isn't fully completed yet. :D
