davidnewman Posted September 5, 2003 Share Posted September 5, 2003 Hi there, AA crew! I wanted AA regulars to be the first to know that in addition to being thrilled to be working with Albert and Alex and the rest of the AA gang ["too sweet!!"], we just got VIDEOTOPIA on board for PC5! They'll be bringing over 50 of their best, coolest, phattest machines to share with us March 20-21, 2004. In addition, our other arcade sponsor, QuarterArcade.com will bring 25+ machines, so it looks like we'll have over 75 coin-ops chugging away on the show floor this year. Can you spell Repetitive Motion Syndrome? ) The PC5 website is under heavy development... stay tuned: we're almost ready to release the hounds. By the way, I just got off the phone with Curt... and what a fabulous success AGE must have been. I'm SO THERE for AGE2. -- David -- -- -- -- -- -- David Newman, Founder .:. PhillyClassic .:.

Albert Posted September 5, 2003 Share Posted September 5, 2003 Awesome news, I had a blast at last year's show and can't wait for PC5! Maybe this time I'll find some time to actually play the arcade games.. Nah, who am I kidding! ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xot Posted September 5, 2003 Share Posted September 5, 2003 March 20-21, 2004. I Aw, hell. I guess I better start looking into a snowplow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Player Posted September 5, 2003 Share Posted September 5, 2003 That's just too many arcade machines. I'm not going now. Yeah, right. I can't wait for PC5. I claim the Warlords cocktail machine along with Tigger, Stan & Pitfallaimee. We will answer all challengers. Unless you enjoy being the first one out each time, do not attempt it. See you all there.

Cassidy Nolen Posted September 5, 2003 Share Posted September 5, 2003 Does that mean you don't want my "green guy" back this year? :wink: I will try to bring some wild Atari classics for the show (Gran Trak and Anti-Aircraft). As always, David; Phenomenal show, and sooooo looking forward to it. Nicole had to cancel a trip, and I canceled a conference in New Mexico to be there. When asked why we could not make it (respectively), we said, "that's Philly weekend" (it made us feel good, of course there were blank stares).

MegaManFan Posted September 5, 2003 Share Posted September 5, 2003 Where's that drooling emoticon CPUWIZ has? I need to borrow it. I can't wait for PC5. And this time, we WILL find a bar that's showing Wrestlemania, even if we have to drive to Philly to do it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MegaManFan Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 I wanted to order passes for me and the Mrs. but the PayPal payment automatically defaults to one pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SS Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 Looking through the VIDEOTOPIA site, I’ve gotta say that I’m totally stoked about being able to play a two player game of Fire Truck again! Geez, I’ll bet that the last time was in 1982! Who’s with me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 I wanted to go last year but wasn't able to. This will be the first year I will be going. I found out about PC4 a week before it started. Any words of wisdom or must does and don't for the first-timer. I'am travelling from Canada.

Mark Wolfe Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 MegaManFan: Can you elaborate ? I tested the buttons earlier. I sent a notice to David about this... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaManFan Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 When I clicked "pre-order a weekend pass for $15" it automatically defaulted to PayPal, which automatically defaulted to one pass per purchase only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidnewman Posted September 6, 2003 Author Share Posted September 6, 2003 Aha!!! So... they've discovered our diabolical plan to greatly limit the number of people that can buy tickets, thus ensuring plenty of open arcade machines for the staff to play at their leisure.... bwa ha ha ha!!!! ...or... D'OH!!!!!!!!! Paypal buttons should be working very soon for more than 1 ticket per transaction... I fixed the goof and sent new code to Mark for upload. Sorry for the inconvenience...

Curt Vendel Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 Cassidy -- You can bring Anti-Aircraft and Gran Trak (which one? 10 or 20) but you WON'T be going home with them!!!

Mark Wolfe Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 Hey Xot, I think you may be mistaking me for someone else. This is my first year on the staff.

Curt Vendel Posted September 6, 2003 Share Posted September 6, 2003 Well, how about some company for Cassidy Green Computer Space this coming year, how about I bring out its older brother, a Yellow single player Computer Space and also how about ZZ-001, the 1st production Pong coin-op upright.
