Albert Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 I will be there, with an AtariAge table (three, actually!) chock full of classic gaming goodness and homebrew games for sale. I'm going to print up some AtariAge/CinciClassic name badges also. Hope to see some of you there!! ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 I'll be there with my prototype collection. I may have a some new interesting 5200 protos if I can finish a deal before Cinci. Tempest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glitch Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 Here's my show of hands I'll be there. Heck it's only 10min from my house. My primary purpose will be to buy all of your stuff though. =============================== Place your ad here. Inquire within. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooterb23 Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 I'll be there...I plan on buying a bunch of stuff, mainly to try and fill some of the bigger holes in my collection... I was going to bring some trade stuff, but I've got nothing beyond some common 2600 games, and some junky NES junk... So I think I'll just go nuts buying stuff again!!!

Lemmi Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 At this time im only looking for one game SpaceMaster X-7 so i can complete my 20th Century Fox collection and also some more manuals for my 20th Century Fox games So all you collectors out there bring all your 20th Century Fox items Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 So all you collectors out there bring all your 20th Century Fox items I hadn't given a lot of thought about bringing trade bait, but now that you mention this I'll have to go through my stuff and see what I can manage to squeeze in. I don't know how much time I'll have for trading, but it won't hurt to be prepared! ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanJr Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 I was thinking about going, but now I think I'll just take a nap instead. nah, of course I'm going to be there. Nobody toots the Cinciclassic horn like yer ol' pal Stan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Player Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 I'll be there with a wad of cash and my Double Dunk cart, since Stan has never played the game! Look forward to meeting everyone there. I can't wait for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceCold Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 There's probably, let's say a 50/50 chance I'll be there. I really, really, really want to go. So, atariage is printing name badges, sweet. So, what should I expect to be there? like arcade machines? any consoles set up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooterb23 Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 Actually IceCold, expect a lot of knitting...that surpised me at last year's show It's really just like you expect, consoles, a few arcade machines, and a killer trivia contest. A lot of fun all around, plus it's in one of the strangest shopping centers I've ever been in. It's a huge place that was about 75% empty last year, but still hundreds of cars a day there!!! Odd.

IceCold Posted September 25, 2002 Share Posted September 25, 2002 Well I'm defnitely gonna try to make it, now it's more 75% chance I'm going, 25% I'm not, instead of 50% i am, 50% i'm not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanJr Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 Yeah, I was very proud of my knitting prowess last year. I took third place in the sewing bee! Yeah, that mall was like a ghost town last year, but its starting to revitalize. And of course there is a Dave and Busters nearby for the after party! What to expect? Expect contests, trivia, LOTS of games and systems and other video game stuff for sale (bring WADS of wampum), TONS of cool people, and a lot of fun. Its great. Cinci is small enough to be personal and friendly without being too tiny to be worth the trip. Like the baby bear's bed, its JUST right.

Albert Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 Yeah, I was very proud of my knitting prowess last year. I took third place in the sewing bee! What is the deal with knitting?! ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Player Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 *stops knitting* You mean it's just a joke? Damn! *throws down knitting needles* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooterb23 Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 Well, you just wait, when I bring in my macrame Dance Dance Revolution mat, you will not be laughing Mr. Albert!!! Didn't you know that video game collecting was just a front for a huge underground knitting communtiy?? I would have won that knitting bee if I hadn't accidentally mixed my Yar and my Custer together in my "History of the 2600" quilt :x @Stan, yeah, I saw all that construction last year, and I was hoping that the mall would sping back to life, it's an awesome, and huge place. Too bad I can't go down for both days, but Saturday is going to be a major blast!!! Can't wait to meet you all there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanJr Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 listen, Al, I know you are kind of un-hip so I'll help you out. When you get to Cinci, give the guy in the green striped shirt a hard boiled egg, in exchange he will secret you away to a hidden back room, full of Atari-enthusiasts knitting like mad! But once you enter, you must keep the coven a secret or, well, let's just say it is in your best interests to keep it a secret. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattG/Snyper2099 Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 Well of course I'm attending. I'm trying to get my second MAME cabinet finished up for the show. I'm putting the finishing touches on it as I type this. :-) I'll have a lot of items to trade/sell and, if I'm lucky, I'll walk away from the event with something I don't have! Nearly every console is going to be there to play in some form or another. Oh, I made some official 'cinciclassic' looking vendor nametags for anyone who wants one. Make sure to ask for one if you don't get it when you pay for your table. I'm attending a meeting here in Cincy on Thursday to finalize everything for next weekend. See you all at the show! MattG.

StanJr Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 Matt, what time are you getting there Friday to set up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceCold Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 Should I bring any games or systems to trade? Or do I just take loads of cash? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monochrome Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 I'll be there both days. This year I am getting a table, because I need to sell off my 2600 carts, includeing q-bert qubes, and some systems And also any other console/computer stuff I find in my basement. It's been too many month unemployed, and the cash is running out. Probley will have lots of ti/99 and 130xe systems. Of course I need lots of vextrex stuff, so that's where all my money will go.

glitch Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 Another thread "I found a great little game store reminded me that there is a shop called StationHead in the Middletown Towne Mall. They sell various older games as well as arcade & pinball machines. Their prices are a bit more than listed in the previous thread but not bad overall. Last time I was there they had quite a few Atari 2600/5200/7800 games & consoles, Intellivision consoles & games, tons of PS1, DC, and Saturn games as well as others. They are also the only place I've ever seen Lynx games in the Cincinnati area. It's similar to a Gamestop but w/ older inventory + the arcade games. Middletown is off of I-75, about 20min north of 275 (which is where Forest Fair Mall is). Towne Mall is right off the exit. I'm not with StationHead at all, I've just shopped there a few times and thought I would mention it for any visitors to Cincinnati that may have some extra time. It's been almost a year since I was there last so I'll try to get out there this weekend and see what they have now if anybody is interested.

IceCold Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 I would definitely be interested in that store, if you can get a chance to go check it out, tell me. Especially since you said it's north of where cinciclassic is, and I live north of Cinci, so it'll work out good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scooterb23 Posted September 26, 2002 Share Posted September 26, 2002 Thanks for the heads up on that one glitch...I'm heading down that way this Saturday. Might be a good side trip after all the flea markets... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
