Albert Posted July 6, 2019 Share Posted July 6, 2019 AtariAge will be present at this year's Portland Retro Gaming Expo! We plan on debuting a slate of fun, new games for the Atari 2600, 5200, 7800 and Jaguar! We should have over 20 game systems setup in the booth with demos of new games, as well as demos of games currently in development but not quite ready for release. The Portland Retro Gaming Expo is one of our favorite classic gaming events, which is why we keep attending! You'll never be bored, as the show is packed full of vendors featuring tons of classic gaming hardware and software (as well as other related merchandise), a plethora of talks and roundtables, tournaments, cosplay, trading, a great museum, wonderful arcade, video game auction, and more! I look forward to seeing many AtariAge members at the show! I already know several homebrew authors will be in attendance, and several other members have informed me they plan on attending. If you want an AtariAge badge, I'll be making those again this year! Please stop by the booth and say hello if you're at the show! We'll start posting details about new games and demos soon so can know what to expect in our booth as the show approaches! If you plan on attending the show, please post up! ..Al 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll contact you as we get closer to the show. My current plan is to have as much setup on Thursday as possible so we don't have to do too much on Friday. But, things don't always go to plan. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
socrates63 Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 The first time I went to PRGE was 2017 for the 40th anniversary of the VCS. I had never heard of AtariAge and I had only gotten into retro gaming that summer. When I first saw the AA booth and the Atari 800 (my very first personal computer) up and running, my eyes nearly welled up with tears as I was suddenly flooded with memories forgotten. I am attending this year and the first thing I'll be doing Saturday morning is to visit the AA booth. Looking forward to it! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first computer was an Atari 800XL. Should have an Atari 8-bit computer at this year's show as well, perhaps an XEGS this time. ..Al 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
