Shawn Sackenheim
Writer, Video Producer, and Researcher in Indianapolis, Indiana
I am a life-long fan of technology, gadgets, and especially video games. I've been writing about them since 1996 and in recent years I have grown interested in their preservation and history. I expanded to YouTube in the mid-2000's with an aim to present and preserve not just the games themselves but the physical ephemera around them.
After striking a nerve with viewers of my DELISTED videos I decided to dive deep into these extinct games and start Delisted Games.com in 2016. The site has quadrupled in content and readership year after year and now offers detailed pages for over 800 games (and counting) that you can't play.
I have also covered the video game music scene as a contributing editor at Original Sound Version where I also did most of the coding and design of the site's 2017 visual refresh. Finally, I maintain a personal gaming blog at GameLuv.com and share more of my collection (and life) on Instagram.
By day I am the Director of Information Technology for Renewal by Andersen Midwest where I manage the software and hardware needs of 300+ employees across 10 regional locations.
