A lifelong gamer with roots stretching back to the Atari 2600, Commodore 64, NES, Sega Genesis, and Super Nintendo, the editor of Extra Life Retro has experienced gaming across more than four decades of console and PC history. From early classics like Prince of Persia and Test Drive to the PlayStation generations and beyond, those games became part of childhood, adolescence, and adulthood. That lifelong connection to gaming shapes Extra Life Retro’s editorial perspective today: preserving the history of classic games, revisiting the experiences that made them special, and exploring what the past can still teach us about the future of gaming.
