My Retro Game Box is a subscription service for those who prefer their games old school. It works like this: you sign up, pay a monthly fee and are then sent three games each month. The games are all for retro consoles, such as the original Nintendo and Sega Genesis. Unlike other services, My Retro Game Box curates its offerings to ensure that you get games for consoles you own and that you're actually interested in.
My Retro Game Box ensures that all games are in working order before sending them, meaning you'll never encounter buyer's remorse. Finding old video games can be very, very hard. It's a lot easier to let someone else send them to you, and the element of surprise only sweetens the deal. A service like this is a great way for gamers to passively bolster their collections of classic titles.
