If you've found this sneaky comment then, congratulations, you've found a sneaky preview link to the first 10 pages of the book www.hachette.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Gadgets-Gizmos-GimmicksBOOK_1-10.pdf
Love your accent, delivery and video editing, best retro channel (not easy to do!)
Thanks. Really looking forward to getting this. Congratulations!
A nice 1st 10 pages
Bum bag sounds funny, but when I learned what fanny meant to you Brits I couldn't help but laugh every time someone said it.
Just ordered both your books as Christmas gifts for my 9 year old who loves retro tech including my Commodore 64C, VIC 20 & two Amigas. I will be reading them as well.
I love this

Where you been!
Christmas sorted for myself, can’t wait 👌🏻
F off scammer! reported. hehehehe JK. bots and all.
I've asked my wife to get this for me for Christmas. I can't wait to get my hands on it. I loved Retro Tech so much and still pick it up every week!
"It's no longer 2018"
Can it be 2018 again please?
Can't wait for this book. I use to carry so much tech with me. From my Walkman, to a Psion Organiser, to the GameBoy, and so many more.
Ha I would have laughed at you with my palm pilot, hang on a sec while I remember an entire form of short hand in order to do so on a tiny monochromatic screen, once I get the stupid notepad open, but I need to be in the right light... wait never mind, the battery is dead.
still got one of those in the loft somewhere....
I start collecting them back randomly. At least for the stuff that still have affordable/reasonable price's tag lol
Pre-ordered your new book before I even finished the video. I enjoyed your Retro Tech book. Looking forward to the new one!
Wasn't expecting this video to be an ad.
@2:29 you gave me goosebumps! My first ever tape player was a Walkman and my first tape was a Maxwell copy of a Dire Straits album, with Sultans of Swing, Money for Nothing and others..
Pre ordered. I can't wait to read through all this retro goodness !!
Geeking out on the T-120 hoodie.
So cool to see you! I've watched tons of your videos. And only nerds could understand the excitement!
The fact that you've already got an audio book ready for launch is what sold me. You got my dollars.
Man, that VHS tape hoodie is *chef's kiss*
Curious note, here in Mexico we are also acquiring the term "mobile" for cell phones. Seems saying cell phone is mostly used now for older non-smart phones now, at least here.
Yes, pre-ordered it. And second copy of retro tech. Nice!
Really looking forward to this! Loved the first book!
Pre-ordered and looking forward to reading it....loved the last one.
Can’t wait for this one! Loved the retro tech book 😊
It is amazing how we've come this far.
On pre-order (as you know!) looking forward to it!
It’s like a retro tech Wikipedia in print. Preordering once it’s on your Twitter.
new book looks great, think I'll get myself a copy for christmas.
is that T-120 hoodie purchaseable anywhere? :O looks so friggin cool
Nice to have tech history, very educational, congrats on new book!
Pre-ordered!! Can't wait!
Placed my pre-order on Audible, looking forward to it
Congrats, man. I've been trying to get published for a long time. I know how much hard work it is. And to do it twice? Congrats, again. I can't wait to get my copy.
His first book was REALLLLLY good. Can’t wait for the new one!
Bravo- looking forward to it!
preordered it! thanks for making this book mate!
You cover some of the most nostalgic content... that a lot cover in a very mundane way, but you do it in an interesting way. Unfortunately I only stumbled upon you a couple weeks ago, but I guess I got years of videos to watch.
well done on the new book!
book is looking awesome
Awesome video, seen you around Norwich few times, wanted to say hello but didn't wanna ruin your filming 😇
Glass is a very retro tech and most phones use it to cover the screen.
I lusted over the Amstrad Notepad for years. Never got to own one.
Gratz on the new book :) love how Amazon think I should by the Mega Drive Mini together with your book 😄 some of that retro tech is too old for me, and some of it is my childhood :) Good Times :)
I would have just been happy with my signed copy of the first book, but almost 6 weeks of being pissed about has put me off getting the new one.
ohhhh... so THAT is all the retro tech inside my phone. It's a book that's coming out. Every day is a school day.
I purchased your first book with great enthusiasm…and I can’t even read.
NICE!!! I’ll look forward to reading it sir.
1:35 No wonder why it seems like the UK gets things at the different time than Americans. Their actual dates translate to something different in American English.
Didn't know! Instantly bought both!
where can i get that VHS sweatshirt?
How did you know I had Dire Straits on my phone ready to blast into my ears regardless of whether or not I have that particular Walkman?
Oh cool! I've won a contest that I didn't enter! I'd better get my bat so I can hit you up as hard as possible! 🤑
Seems really interesting!
Pre-Ordered via Google Play shop.....wish I had the space for books....I dont...too many games and consoles.
Def preordering this :o
Funny thing is I have a Dire Straits cassette tape lying around 😂
Ordered! Thanks, Peter!
Dang. Always out if country for the good giveaways. Still happy to check out the book tho 😀
On my Christmas list 😍
Looks smeggin cracking!
just ordered one.
Ooo congratulations on your new book 😊
Guess this was a smash hit!
I'm not gonna lie I never knew you had a book the first time around so I might have to pick up the new one
Ordered. 😁 Think I spotted a few items I owned back in the day! 😁
I want that VHS hoodie
I hope the flipcam makes an appearance
Yo I'm going to be 100% honest,
I have used your book as an guide to many systems that I don't own and probably will never (e.g. the Jaguar) and only emulate the 3 games you mention genuinely speaking I agree with your choices.
Yeah, I guess "fanny pack" must conjure up some interesting images in the UK.😆
Preordered, cheers
My wife just brought this home from the Library for me. I said "Hey?! I watch this guy on youtube!" and said that I was going to have to buy the book after I finished reading it. She said but I could just borrow it from the Library again, whenever I wanted?! :D
Apologies, she brought home the first book. My jaw just dropped when I started the video to show her and we both saw the SECOND book! (Maybe the Library has that one?!)
Just bought both books on Amazon. :-)
Will the non-patreon copies also be signed?
Pre ordered!
Hi. I've seen the book on eBay as well. As i use PayPal can i purchase it there?
This add worked..... Ordered the book
I clicked expecting a video about the retro tech a mobile phone has replaced but instead got a four minute advert for a book. Very very misleading.
Very cool!
Uhh... saw a glimpse of the Amstrad NC100 in there...

I do have a soft spot for portable stuff... its probably where I do the most gaming. Hell, I had a palm pilot at one point and it was mostly used for playing Wonderswan games. :P (and yes, LCD games count!)
Wonderswan games seem like an odd choice. Exactly what Palm handheld was it?
@@jnharton No idea at all. It was decades ago now. I remember it having dark blue plastic and a "lid" that clipped onto the back. I may have been a generic "digital organiser" of some kind. Either way, it didn't do much, and finding out it could handle portable games was a boredom cure.
It’s a cool book BUT the title is freaking damn misleading ,why not calling it the retro phone tech book promotion instead? Damnit.
Fourth prize gets you Sarah all year..
I have ready ordered the new,
And I ordered the 2018 book on Amazon.
"My name is Nostalgia Nerd." Is that what your passport says?
That's one of the Xmas prezzies my misses can get me then. loved the last book and got it for Xmas. Shame I'm excluded for living in Northern Ireland though on the give away🤦🏻♂️
Amazon hardback preorder, ordered
I've always just know you as "nostalgia nuhd". Puh-hops I am wrong? Then again, I live in Americur, so that must explain it.
Wait a second it’s your second book?!😮
The most dapper chap on CZcams. 🥳 Glad to see more uploads recently!
Who does the NostalgiaNerd voice over for the audio book?
Excellent
Hi Peter, just a 'heads up', I've tried pre-ordering the Audible version using my credits and it consistently goes to a dead link displaying: 'We’re sorry. The Web address you entered is not a functioning page on our site.' I just thought I'd let you know... Ben
week made!
You mean we have to use our hands!? That's a baby's toy!
I asked on Facebook but got no response. I'm curious what specifically about Northern Ireland law prevents this competition from being valid there? I know in Canada we have to answer a skill-testing question. If you want to include Quebec you have to register your contest with a competition bureau and it's so complicated that many completions say (excludes Quebec).
I'm from Northern Ireland. The gambling laws are different here than in the rest of the UK. A competition like this can be considered as a 'game of chance' i.e.you have to buy something (the book) in order to enter. Once money changes hands it's technically gambling therefore different laws apply here NI. Madness? Yes but just the way it is in the wonderful 'United' Kingdom.

Is it just me, or is there an audio buzz in the talking head segments??
Now, I don't want to brag, but I've developing an app and a plug-in adapter that will convert your phone into a fully, semi-functional Sinclair C3!
I’d preordered this book a couple of months ago, after reading the first one 😊 Love this kind of stuff, right up my street!
Ordered 😊from Dubai 👍
Can I get both your books in a neat little bundle?
Interesting
Preorderd
Shameless plug for that Nostalgia Nerd guy
How much is he paying you?
👍
Back then there was a discreete device for every function. Now it's just lots-of-shit-on-a-chip. Good? Bad? Hard to decide...
