Game On 2.0 at the Ontario Science Center in Toronto until Sept 2

I couldn't seem to find a thread about this, so here we go.

This thing was pretty cool! I would highly recommend taking the trip if it is at all reasonable for you to do so. Just a big ol' room of vintage consoles running old video games. I finally got to play Rez, Vib Ribbon, Twinkle Star Sprites, Saturn Bomberman, and even the arcade version of Buck Rogers! There was even a PC Engine with Magical Chase on hand.

It wasn't perfect, of course - there were a number of games that were frozen or inoperable, including the Jaguar with Tempest 2000. But there was more than enough. And the rest of the Ontario Science Center is pretty darn nifty, too.

I hope the exhibit comes back some place closer to where I live next year.

Yeah I went there 2 weeks ago, it was pretty cool. I played Magical Chase, I can't believe that game sold for over 5000 complete awhile back.
I wanted to play Asteroids which had Vectrex like graphics but some dude was hogging it and I forgot to go back.

I just attended that about a month ago, and it was awesome! I liked the section in the back with all of the arcades, but it was really cool to see the Pokémon memorabilia. They also had a really cool Pier Solar exhibit, if anyone noticed. :)
