I will have pictures up soon. Still recovering to be honest. Great show, better than last year. Maybe next year we will even have the real Internet

Only if its in a different venue do we have hope.

I know Drexel has pics too, I think video as well.

I had a great time. MGC 2009 met and exceeded all of my expectations. I really hope to make it next year.

On top of getting to chat with many familiar faces, I also was able to meet many people for the first time.

I took mostly video...will have it up on my youtube page (check my sig) hopefully by the end of the week (i have a lot of video to edit). Lots of greats shots of the show floor and pinball/museum room. Unfortunately most of the footage from the party was horrible...it was way too dark in the room for the camera to pick up anything. Didn't notice till I checked it today.

Also had a great time. One of the best shows I've ever been to. Thanks again Ryan for hosting the party. Will definitely try and make it back next year!

I wish I could say sales went well for me,but saddly not one t-shirt sale(I can always carry them over to VGS in July) one guy kept asking about 2xl sized t-shirt, I told him I can either order for it for him or he can do it online. alot of people asked about the cafepress shop and VGS.
for those here who did stop by my table: for the 25,000 question:
Name the name tags I was wearing(not counting the vendor badge,AA bade or DP bade from this year)

[Tupin]

Looks like it was fun, I'll be sure to go next year.

ooh, a Friendship 7 pinball machine. I love that table. Lots of awesome stuff. I need to make it to this show sometime.

Yes. Thankfully that, along with the Commodore PET and Compaq luggables, was among the many items that did not get to make the return trip home on Sunday. Don't know if the wife was happier to see the wad of cash I dropped on the table, or with the fact that I brought back less than half of the boxes of stuff I started with.

Perkar and I had a beer bet on whether or not he would sell his Carmen Sandiego, which he did. The show was absolutely spectacular. I ended up going home with 1/5 of the items I took with me, most of which has already been dumped off at the indie game store for additional monies. Got to meet some new faces including GoodwillHunter, Tempest, tofu, Icbrkr, Vectorman, Drexel, and many others that I can't remember right off hand. All in all, this was the best MGC that I have attended, regardless of the fact that 2k Monies was attained at our table. Beef Min Games 4-evar!

Arrg, you had a PET there? I would have gotten it if I knew that, been looking for one locally.

Rich

Probably both.

[Tempest]

If I had seen that PET before Ian it would have been mine...
