+-^CrossBow^- Posted March 20, 2006 Share Posted March 20, 2006 How far South are you asking? Because I do have prelim planning underway for the '06 OVGE...though I don't have the date quite finalized yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2600Lives Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 Man, I was wondering whether or not there was going to be a show this year. Glad to know that there's already plans in the works. I've been practicing like mad to take the Neo-Geo tournament this year, too. Go Jesse! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
82atari5200 Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 How about Orlando, Fl south.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gameprogram Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 I've been wondering that question myself. I'm along the Gulf Coast (Katrina waste land). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregory DG Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 You'd think Orlando or Atlanta would be a good place to have something. But there is just nothing in the southeast at all. Probably the closest thing to a Southeast show would be OKGE or PhillyClassic. Maybe one day we southern folks can have something. I have a pretty good place to have one (in the Central FL area.)

+-^CrossBow^- Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 For you Florida folks, i thought the VGXPO just announced their intentions for hosting shows not only in the Philly area, but the organizers of that event I believe are looking at Orlando and Vegas for shows as well? Just something to keep in mind. I would ask Ed Fleming on the info for that. But as far as the southern states are concerned, OVGE or Philly are the same distance for alot of you...and I won't lie. Between the two, OVGE doesn't have anything over the Philly show. In fact if you have to travel that large a distance, the Philly show is likely more worth the money in such a long drive. But for those in the Mid-America area and Northern Texas...the OVGE is awaiting confirmation, contract, and deposit info to lock in a date. I will tell you that Mid August if the likely timeframe...

SteveW Posted March 23, 2006 Share Posted March 23, 2006 I'd love to see a convention in New Orleans. I just don't see it happening anytime soon. I don't think the area is the best place to hold a classic gaming convention. It doesn't seem like a big retro gaming area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
