    Default CORGS-CON 2013 in Columbus Ohio (5/25/13!)

    Hi, I couldn't find any posts on CORGS-CON for this year. I'm not one of the organizers, but I thought I'd pass the word that it is happening next Saturday (May 25, 2013) in the ballrooms at the Fort Rapids Water Park, 4560 Hilton Corporate Drive, Columbus OH, 43232 (same location as last year). The hours are 10am-6pm with $2 admission, though they're running an early bird special as well (enter at 9am for $5).

    Here is the official website: http://corgs-con.webs.com/

    Anyone else going this year? I had a really great time last year, and definitely enjoyed the new location. Hearing that they've expanded it even further is great news!

    I will be there with a restored Joust upright for sale along with 100's of Atari, Nintendo, Gamecube, Dreamcast, XboX, Playstation, PS2, NES, SNES, and Sega Genesis games.

    Can't wait to play some vintage games this weekend.

    They have expanded this year and have sold almost twice as many tables as last year. There are 3 tables left according to the site but they may be sold now.
    These Reproductions available with custom labels via PM with free shipping for DP members:

    ATARI 2600: Mazy Match, Cola Invaders (the one I released/made), Meltdown (2600), Kabobber, Stone Age (NTSC), A Misterious Thief (NTSC).

    NES(US):Crazy Climber, Mario Adventure, Castlevania C.O.M., Drac's Night Out, Galaxian.

    If it wasn't for sarcasm, I'd rather be dead.

    Well, this is certainly convenient. I was telling my cousin about this retro shop that opened up in the C-bus area that I wanted to visit and we were planning on driving up this weekend to check it out on Saturday. It looks like possibly have two things to look for now.

    Probably... Here's some pics:

    Price will be up there but I won't be mad if I don't sell it. One of, if not the best, head to head arcade games ever created.
