About Nathan White
HEY! I’m Nathan (for lack of a better internet handle). Aside from running Video Games Are Rad, I have contributed my mad ramblings over at Game Sugar, Sega 16 and Encounter Rate. When I’m not waxing intellectual about video games, I am usually either playing them or spending time with my wife, daughter, and son. My turn-ons include Vs. Super Mario Bros., the Twin Famicom, and video games made before 1998. Turn-offs include online multiplayer, DLC, and video games made before 1983. I can be hassled at whenitpainsitroars@gmail.com.
