Jobf Posted September 17, 2006 Author Share Posted September 17, 2006 Not long to go now! Alex Nicholson will be demonstrating a new Vectrex game 'Joust Evolution' at Eurocon. He's also bringing a few 'works in progress' along too! Check his website out for more information http://www.vectorzoa.com/ Gamestation have confirmed they are attending the Saturday retro fair. They are drawing retro stock from 13 Gamestation stores in the North West to bring along. Along with all the other stalls, there will be plenty of interesting stuff to pore over for any videogamer!

flicky Posted October 21, 2006 Share Posted October 21, 2006 Hi everyone Just a reminder that the North-West Classic Gaming Fair is taking place at Great Eccleston near Blackpool here in the UK next weekend. The event runs from 11am to 4pm. Entry is £3 (under 16s £1.50). The first 15 people through the door will get a free copy of Retro Fusion magazine (worth £3!) We'll definitely have 3 arcade machines on freeplay: Defender (cocktail), Star Castle (cocktail) and Pleiades (mini upright). We may add another one or two by Saturday, depending how things work out. As well as this, there will be lots of classic computers and consoles on freeplay, including Atari VCS, Atari 800, Vectrex, Colecovision, TI99/4A, MSX2, C64, Vic 20, ZX Spectrum, Gamecube, SNES, Megadrive and Dreamcast. We'll have around 20 vendors selling lots of classic console and computer items. Finally, there will be some competitions with prizes: a Sonic speed-run on the Sega Megadrive, a multiple choice quiz, and a raffle for a boxed Atari VCS in aid of the Starlight charity: http://www.starlight.org.uk/ Hope to see you there. Cheers Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
