I fixed the High Score Challenge and Sega CD links. Thanks for bringing those to my attention. I know that I still need to "wrap" the Articles with the new banner.
I was worried about the possibility that everybody might hate the new look (after all this work!) but the feedback has been mostly positive so far (80% at least).
I realize that the slick modern look may turn off some visitors, but I think the antiquated look was turning away even more. I do agree that the long navigation bar attracted a lot of attention before, and I'm sad to lose it. If anybody can think of a way to integrate that concept in the new design let me know.
I hear a lot of talk about organization of the consoles, and you have to realize it's just an arbitrary thing. I don't want to adopt the generation approach because frankly I don't agree with all of those groupings.
The colors may be tweaked, or even rotated. Blue tends to be easy on the eyes, but I can also imagine an alternate green look. I love the stars and the circuit boards backgrounds, but these can also be changed or rotated. Originally the stars were a Pac-Man maze.
I'm not going to make any major changes right away, because I want to give people time to get used to the new layout, and we'll see how things shake out.
Anyway keep chiming in with your opinions!
