wow to be honest no I haven't heard of him 'till now and that is most likely due to the release of the atari console shortly after chanF's release which pretty much killed chanF.

He continued building devices to control telescopes, lasers, tools, etc.

My kind of guy.

for those who don't know what he is talking about... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fairchild_Channel_F

It was the first console to sell separate from the software it runs besides the embedded software which it also had and was pretty much the only way anyone had done it until the this unit's release.

Ah that's pretty cool.

maybe the black gamer market is too small to "market" towards.
what about a larger group like.

nonwhitegamer.com ?
nonwhitegamerandwhitechicks.com ?
yellowandblackgamer.com ?

For advertising, you might want to pay for good placement for google adwords such as: fried chicken and malt liquor.

As people mentioned, this idea is a fail. Thankfully.

This is totally inappropriate, but it totally made me LOL

I couldn't even remember a black stereotype other than fried chicken off the top of my head, but i remember there was a booze associcated with poor black people. So I googled: booze that black people drink ...and remembered it (got a hit on page 1) was Malt Liquor. Thanks google - you do know all.

This thread is starting to go down a slippery slope...

I think that was determined by the title of the thread.

I'm still wondering what it is that's different about black gamers and black game designers that sooooooooooooooooooo warrants a special forum of their own?

It's a nuts idea, and the people who are supporting it and saying how "it might work if you approach it properly" are just being nice; it's the worst idea for a forum I've ever (repeat EVER) heard.

Hell, if this one takes off we might as well register domains for "lackofjewsinthepornindustry.com" (because I don't know many Jewish porn stars) and "hispanicphotographers.com" (because I don't know many Spanish photographers) and "islamicchoirsingers.com" (a complete pun - but only if you "get" it, of course).

I coud go on, but I won't ....

 

[Digital Doctor]

Hmmmm .... Google Adwords for Jewish pRoN stars .... hmmmm.
Matzah ball ?

no, not really.
if it had been about black hair-care products would we also be having this discussion? probably thats why i dont take opinions like yours very seriously.

Black people's hair is much different than non-blacks.
It makes a discussion about that legitimate.
What applies (pun unintended) to Caucasian hair often does not apply to Black people's hair.

thats why i dont take opinions like yours very seriously.

So you think Black Gamer is going to be a success ?
It's not going to be trolled out of existence ?
The idea is sound and there are distinct needs that Black Gamers have like ... they want to know which video games have black characters ?

i suppose i think of it being marketed at 'young urban males that game'. meaning the types that you can pitch basketball/sports/rap/console/etc ads to.
there is a clear demographic, and its marketed to on tv/radio all the time. theres no real reason websites cant do it as well.
