I'm in Paris right now and the Louvre had a show on decorative arts. I work as a designer so the show had some interest for me. There is also a toy section which had video games. I was a little surprised since I had just been looking at wind up toys and then wow an Atari Jaguar.

Pictures are allowed without a flash but I forgot my camera. They had hooked up to monitors: PC, xbox, dreamcast, playstation, jaguar, megadrive, nintendo and pong. the monitors had touch displays where you could read and watch demos of notiable games for the system. display cases had most of the portables although the turbo express and game.com were missing but both versions of the n-gage were not LOL

anyway thought it was cool they put videogames in one of the biggest museums in the world

Is there any indication as to how long this will be on display? I'm considering going for New Years and it would be great to be there to see this!
