Is there much of an Atari console / games presence? Any homebrews for any systems displayed?

I was there selling my homebrews, but not displayed.    There are a decent amount of Atari stuff offered for 2600 and 7800.   Not much 8 bit, ST, Jaguar.   There was a vendor with a bunch of boxed Lynx games.    Atari was represented in the Arcade and free play area.

Missed that one.  I didn't see much if any Lynx stuff.  I was disappointed that there wasn't much if any classic computer stuff.  When the show was still at the Sheraton there seemed to be computer stuff. 

 

To me, most vendors seemed to be selling NES, SNES, GEN, PSX, and PS2 stuff.  There was a smattering of other systems, but these seemed to be the most common.  I even saw someone selling loose copies of Spiders and Red Clash for the Arcadia 2001!

There was a vendor in the play area selling some classic computer stuff.   I did see some big box PC games.    I know that those items are harder to sell versus the console games that sold more.   I love seeing the obscure stuff and older computer and games represented though.
