New Deck of Cards pays homage to the classic video games

Retrocomputaria (http://www.retrocomputaria.com.br) is a Brazilian podcast and website which has been around since 2010, talking about retrocomputing way before retro was mainstream!

They launched their second Crowdfunding Campaign, aiming to fund the production of a Classic Deck of cards with classic video games as a theme. The 52 card’s illustrations pay homage to 16 video games, all of them sold in Brazil between 1980 and 2005 (and likely all around the world). The deck has a standard size and can be used for playing any card game it comes to mind, even Solitaire! All packed in a nice custom box!

It’s their second crowdfunding campaign. The first, successfully funded, was a classic computer and video games deck: https://www.kickante.com.br/campanhas/baralho-micros-videogames-classicos.

All funds raised will be used to pay for their hosting, all site and podcast maintenance and space rental for meetings and events, like RetroRio (http://www.retrocomputaria.com.br/retrorio/) and MSXRio (http://www.msxrio.com.br).

If you wish to help them to achieve their goal, the organizers ask you to spread the word (http://catarse.me/baralhovideogames). If you are outside Brazil and want to help them and be the owner of one or more decks, you can take a look at https://suporte.catarse.me/hc/pt-br/articles/360024063451 (in English) which explains in detail how to back the project.

The campaign page itself is in Portuguese, but Google Translator is your friend!
