This is a great point. When you think about how much knowledge is being written in a place like Discord, where most will never be able to search or see it, having RGB is a phenomenal boon. Thanks to @Peltz for everything.

This is why I vastly prefer forums.
Almost every time I’m looking into an obscure topic the best info is recorded on a forum somewhere by someone trying to figure out a problem, with other experienced people chiming in with more information.

RIP indeed. an absolute repository for so much technical info, and a group of folks that were very kind & helpful when i was finding my way through SCART RGB and how to get the best signal from a host of classic consoles, nevermind insight into lesser known hardware revisions/etc
we know the story of what happened with nintendoage (segaage too), i don’t know if i’d heard what brought down assembler?
also, just remembered: these were the folks that got their hands on a dreamcast dev kit, found the unrleased prototype for toejam & earl 3 (pre xbox), worked to make it playable & dumped it free for the community. i’m told that might not have been the only game they did that for, too - absolute champions

I was a mod at assemlergames for so many years. Basically from near the begining of the site.
Ultimately it seems that Kev who owned the forum has personal and possibly financial issues.
We never found out the true reason so we can only speculate. One thing that is true is thag without Assembler there would have been no Giest Force or Saturn 3D Sonic leak.
Also, Assembler was such a great place for sharing info as you mentioned.

Hoping someone might be able to help with this one. A few years ago I purchased a 10 pack of these to protect my small Genesis collection:
Recently I’ve been on a huge Genesis kick, bought a lot more games, and wanted to put them in the same protective case. But shipping is an insane $40 right now. 
I’ve spent a lot of time searching but can’t find any other vendor that sells a similar style cartridge protector box. There are a million options for the thin plastic “box” style protectors, (or even worse, bags) but I really want the hard plastic case. (Very similar to a GB/GBC one.)
Does anyone have another source for something like this?
