My name is Alan Stewart, better know as Mamemeister on the Web. I'm the wrong side of 50 and have been playing video games since 1978 with a particular passion for the golden age of arcades and home computers. I put out regular videos on my YouTube channel below and plan to put out at least one weekly podcast. www.youtube.com/user/mamemeister
