Mirage Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 For anyone that's interested, I put up the first set of my pictures from the 2006 MGC. Note, that it does not include the museum hall. I'll be putting up pics from that in early January. http://www.flickr.com/photos/91071283@N00/...57611201169543/ Heh... I see the back of my head in 240 and 241... my wife was right there, not sure how you didn't get her... probably stepped away for a minute.

Carey85 Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Perkar from DP and myself are setting up as Beef Min Games at DP. On my end I'm planning on bringing a bunch of nice assorted Genesis hardware, ~150 NES games, and a bunch of other assorted gaming stuff that I want to pare down. I'm looking to do some wheeling and dealing, especially on 2600 stuff I don't already have. IIRC Ianoid ended up with a fair chunk of my money last year Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/134787-midwest-gaming-classic-09/page/3/#findComment-1690109 Share on other sites More sharing options...
goatdan Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Just a quick update for everyone -- you'll be seeing an announcement on the site very soon about a new sponsor... Sony has joined us to help promote the fun of electronic gaming, and are giving us some great stuff to pass on to gamers who are coming out to the show. Not just will the door prize for one of the days be for a Playstation 3 with a copy of Killzone 2 (which I hear is absolutely amazing), but Sony is sending us well over 1000 t-shirts to give away to the first people through the doors on Saturday! If you pre-order tickets, you will be guaranteed one shirt per ticket (or two day ticket) ordered, and we are only going to have tickets on sale until next week Friday, so if you've been thinking about it but haven't bought yet, now there is an even better reason than before to sign up! We've got a lot more tricks up our sleeve this year too, as this will definitely be the biggest and best Midwest Gaming Classic ever! Hope to see everyone at the show!

I need about 14 boxes, including all of the Absolute/Activision stuff and Atari stuff like Basketbrawl, Xenophobe, Planet Smashers, Mario Bros., Summer Games, etc...
