  • So the full name of the UK is ‘United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland’. As the name suggests, it includes Great Britain, Northern Ireland, plus a bunch of smaller islands nearby.

    Great Britain is the main island, and contains three countries: England, Scotland, and Wales. They’re all separate countries governed collectively by the UK government, but they also have their own local governments (kind of like how states in the US can have their own laws but must also adhere to federal law).

    A Briton is someone from Britain.

    I can’t speak confidently to the stuff about Canada & Australia, but hopefully that covers several of your questions!


  • On the other hand, it’s only 26 pages per issue. Tons of space for a deep dive if covering just one game, but only a fraction of a normal magazine, so the value proposition is different.

    That said, I do agree - it’s a bold choice. Normally the appeal of a magazine like Retro Gamer is that they cover so many topics per issue that you’re bound to find at least one or two interesting articles. By focusing on just one game, it’s much more likely that you’re alienating a majority of potential readers each time and failing to build a consistent audience.
