Beginning Oct. 28 and lasting through the holidays, every Barnes & Noble store has a "For the Gamer" end-cap display.
You can find a variety of new offerings, including my "100 Greatest" book:

That Barnes & Noble would carry such a book, the bulk of which consists of games for the Atari 2600, 5200, 7800, ColecoVision, etc., is a nice illustration of just how mainstream retro gaming has become. The new Flashback consoles are a great indicator as well. As far as I'm concerned, this is a good thing.
Of course, you can still get my book on Amazon as well:

THANKS FOR READING!

Re: New "For the Gamer" Display at Barnes & Noble
Picked up a copy of this book at Classic Gaming Expo. I was amazed at the high quality of the binding and the full color photos for such a low price. I am enjoying reading through and have actually picked up a few classic games that I wouldn't have known about, had I not picked up this book. Any plans to write another one for 1988 through 1998?

Awesome, thanks!
I hope to do a sequel, but I have to finish up the next book in this series first:
