Instagram accounts about retrogaming
Next, we leave you with the most interesting retrogaming accounts that you can find on Instagram. You will be able to see some oriented to collecting, others to modding and a lot of exclusive product for which you would surely pay a lot to have it.
Retro Dodo@retro_dodo)
This account is in charge of collecting amazing products related to old platforms and the world of video games that you can even buy in most cases. It also publishes many of the new portable and not-so-portable consoles that are capable of emulating old platforms, so you'll be up to date with what's new around Raspberry Pie and other projects dedicated to the world of emulation.
James (@segacollect)
James is a very special collector, as he has an incredible complete collection of all the games that ever existed for the Master System. As expected, he has both versions of the console and also has all the accessories that existed for the platform, including the fateful 3D glasses.
LAFAN (@gamer_lafan)
This Instagram user is known for having a modified Super Nintendo unit, and it is that he managed neither more nor less than to integrate a CD-ROM reader imitating the appearance of the famous unit that Nintendo prepared together with Sony and that they finally decided not to launch. It also has some modifications that for some will be sacrilege, such as the Macintosh Classic II with a flat screen that it has to play emulators.
Pickle@retropickle)
Pickle is a 30-year-old girl who loves 90s consoles and everything that has to do with Pokémon. Her long collection of games, accessories, and cards from the Nintendo saga is incredible, but she's also not short of 16-bit consoles and even toys from the era.
HaihaiSB (@haihaiSB)
The retro world also has a lot of enthusiastic fans of midding, and in this case, HaihaiSD is quite the expert. He himself calls himself "Doctor Gameboy", and his creations are based on the famous Nintendo laptop, to which he has been able to mount a second screen to play Nintendo DS games (including touch) or make customizations to each more striking.
Boxy Pixel (@boxypixel)
But if there is someone specialized in creating fine mods with exquisite taste, that is Boxy Pixel. With the help of CNC machinery, this user shows and sells his creations in aluminum parts, a material that gives new life to old laptops with incredible finishes and brutal aesthetics. Not without spatially cheap pieces, but for the result, of course, it's worth it.
JapanEmu (@japangemu)
This Chilean of Japanese descent recounts his experiences in Japan, and does not hesitate to show his favorite hobby: old consoles. And of course, being in Japan, there is nothing better than visiting flea markets and second-hand stores to find authentic jewels and exclusive editions forgotten on the shelves.
