Retro Rogue Posted March 26, 2010 Author Share Posted March 26, 2010 Ok, badge runs are now closed. Everyone that requested one in this thread or in pm is getting one, 24 in total. You'll be able to pick them up in my museum room, and those that are vending and to busy to make it I should be able to drop it off. Anyone that's helping to unload/etc. in the museum, I'm planning on being there between 4 and 5pm. The badges are similar to last years, with the inclusion of a 520ST 25th anniversary logo on the back side. Jeff31, you don't have an avatar, so I picked one for you. The abandoned Detroit ice house since you're from Michigan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveD Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 This somehow slipped under my radar and I just learned of it today. I think I'll try to stop by either Saturday or Sunday afternoon since it's just a 15-minute drive from me. Looking forward to it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickO2 Posted March 26, 2010 Share Posted March 26, 2010 I have no clue what I'll be wearing but I'll be happy to say hello to any of you. I wish I had a retro shirt....maybe I'll pick one up at the show and wear it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turboStar Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 I'm off!! I'll be at the hotel later tomorrow night! Any happenings going on after hours at the hotel?? I hope to see many of you there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted March 27, 2010 Share Posted March 27, 2010 I was at the hotel earlier but had to take my grandma out to dinner. Now I think I'm going to settle in and watch the MSU Iowa game. I'll see everyone tomorrow unless something interesting is happening tonight. I'm only 5 min from the hotel so I can make an appearance if need be.

Retro Rogue Posted March 28, 2010 Author Share Posted March 28, 2010 Hey all, at the end of a hugely successful day. Tournaments are still going, afterparties are about to start. We were mobbed from 10am on. About 160 coin-ops total this year (pinball and video), classic coin videos like Dig Dug, Kangaroo, Crystal Castles, Battlezone, Donkey Kong, Pac-Man, Zwackery, Tank II, Tempest, and many more. Eugene Jarvis' speach was great, lot of other great presentation, IGDA panel on breaking in to the game industry was a big hit as well. More tomorrow.

Tom-Lynx Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 Thanks to all the AtariAge'rs that stopped by The Family Game Room! It was a pleasure meeting you. For the others that didn't stop in, make sure you do tomorrow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirage Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 I'm halfway regretting not going today. I'll bet tons of stuff in the sale room is already sold... not that that's the main reason I'd go, but I always enjoy the for sale room I at least look forward to hearing the stories and seeing photos/videos of the event.

JayWI Posted March 28, 2010 Share Posted March 28, 2010 Here's a few short videos I took at the MGC yesterday. Nothing fancy. No narration, music, just me taking video. I actually needed the footage for work and I think the pinball shots are going to work out great. http://www.youtube.com/user/FoofyJay?feature=mhw4#p/c/078D7FB32D1E0B0D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really disliked the Sheraton as a hosting facility. Everything was so spread out, some stuff was buried away that I totally missed it. A lot of areas were cramped and made me feel like I was in the way of other people which probably has a lot to do with the lack of vids. I felt bad stopping to take vids when I knew other people might want to get by. Anyway, was Jagfest in the hallway by the game rooms and museum? By the bathroom? If so, the small cramped quarters probably made me walk right by. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a lot of fun though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a lot of fun though It looked like fun and I stopped a few times to just take a look. I figured it was some folks from AA at the booth but you were pretty busy talking with some other people. I think each time I walked by there was a dad and his son playing that big stand up game with the gun. I'll stop next time, I'm sure that won't be the only time you'll do this. Hopefully next year will be in a different venue so there'll be a bit more room for everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
