fred Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Anyone going to the SoCal Retro gaming expo? I just found out about it. Has anyone here been? Thoughts? Is it worth the ticket price? http://socalretrogamingexpo.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
towmater Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I heard that this is where the region's Gamestop employees unload the store displays and other marketing materials that were marked for destruction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPUWIZ Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Interesting. About a 2 hour drive. https://www.google.com/maps/place/Frank+%26+Son+Collectible+Show/@34.0001787,-117.8774428,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m5!3m4!1s0x80c32bac70d4845d:0x3476d83a28e8e749!8m2!3d34.0001743!4d-117.8752541 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Nathan Strum Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Have no idea who any of the guests are. It's one week away, and no lists of vendors or panels. Looked at the arcade game listing... nothing there worth the drive. Can't say I'm interested. I'd rather save my pennies for California Extreme.

I think I know one of them, the Pat guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
