    Default CORGS-CON 2011 (Columbus, OH) ... Happening?

    This looks like maybe the best place to ask, because I would make the case that their web site is not!

    CORGS-CON 2010 was a fun little retro game event and buy/sell/trade show, and I am hoping they do it again this year. They said on their site they were in May or June, but they haven't said when or where.

    So, I bring it to the digitpress masses ... Anyone know if this is happening?

    Been checking myself lately and agree that it is an unknown.

    Planning to attend to Clevland Show. I've gone the last two years and have had fun.

    I of course was clueless to the Cincinnati show which is 25 minutes from me. Did not even know of this Arcade Legacy (arcade, game store, etc.). Looks like it will get a visit very soon. I believe they are hosting the event with the notion of making it annual. It's from the 24th to the 26th? Three day convention seems implausible around here...

    Thanks for the heads up...

    I live 25 minutes from Arcade Legacy as well and have never attended. I'll go to the Cincy show, for networking purposes if nothing else. You never know what kind of people you are going to run into.

    arcade legacy is a nice little place. ten bucks for unlimited arcade play, and the store has a nice selection of games too. the owner is a nice guy, i hope for his continued success.

    It's been awhile since I've hit the game stores in Cincy/Dayton. I might set a day aside this weekend to do a sweep of the game stores and thrifts. Last time I did Dayton I ended up finding the turntable I am currently listening to.

    I'd like to know if this is on or not as well. I had a lot of fun at last year's CORGS and would like to go again. Love all the details on their website

    From the bowels of the 1997 internet the CORGS dudes updated their page today late in the day. This is a direct copy/pasta:

    Hi gamers! Tables are now officially on sale for CORGS-CON 2011. They are only $12.00 each (6') or multiples for $10.00 each (maximum of 4 per person). Contact the Great Buckeye or G-Money (e-mail and phone below) to reserve yours now!!!!!

    * July 16th, 9am to 6pm. 3795 South High Street, Columbus OH, 43207 *

    I'll be there if I can get the day off.

    9 AM seems early. Not for me, but I suspect some of the sellers won't make until 10-11...
