Pixel Nation is a fiercely independent publishing company, specialising in hard print publications about video game history, art, design and culture. We celebrate our independence and all that it brings to us, allowing us to create bespoke niche market products of the highest artistic integrity... products that a mainstream corporate publisher could never take on board.
Pixel Nation is an organically created, independently run company, celebrating all that is positive and unique about the limited edition print medium.
There has been an opinion that printed medium is dying, with future communication and media being the sole realm of the internet, but Pixel Nation must disagree. Print media is not dying, it is just evolving. Pixel Nation will not attempt to compete with the myriad of online sources for the same subject matter, nor compete with similar corporate published magazines and books.
We believe in a technological age where media is being buried behind layers of simulation, there is a great deal to be said for tactile, high quality, printed items.

Pixel Nations U-Publish
Pixel Nation has an unwavering belief that human creativity and inspiration is what should drive consumer products in the future, NOT boring homogenised corporations telling our community how to think. To that end we present “ U-Publish”, which is our platform that literally puts the creative power in YOUR hands. It is a method by which people with creativity and talent can see their own work published.
The U-Publish platform will grow in time, for launch it features three excellent and varied products; the debut Issue of NES-Bit Magazine System which is the worlds first dedicated NES collectors magazine, Hidden Treasures: Rare & Unappreciated Gems, a thoroughly detailed book covering the best rare and unappreciated games throughout the history of gaming, and Pixellation Issue One a specialist retro gaming eMagazine for all eReaders.
