Who's going? It's only the best video game event of the year. Seriously. My tickets are booked, tables arranged. Don't know what it is? Try here:

Don't forget, as part of the festivities this year we added a special Friday event - a Chicago coin-op industry tour:

Holy shit, flights from NJ are down to $200! BOOKED. NO WEDDING. I'M THERE. Bitches.
No, this thread ain't dying like the last one. GET HYPE.
Thinking of getting a hotel room in downtown Milwaukee this time. Return trips to Mader's and Cafe Hollander are a must, also maybe this time I'll actually go to the Safehouse. Maybe spend Friday in Cedarburg....oh yeah, video games.

Gonna be looking for some JPS2 games like Trio The Punch and Garouden Breakblow...and this is the year I will finally buy that Redman faceplate from Kris. I hope.
I'm planning on going again! I might arrive Friday. I'm interested in doing the Friday night midnight pinball madness thing. Does anybody know if that is happening?
Third year in a row that I'll be there!

I posted a montage video for all of the games in the Die-Hard Gamer Console Arcade room and the Versus Room:

This year is the show's 10th anniversary!
Later.

I'll be there.
Whoops, I didn't notice you'd already put the video up! Unfortunately I deleted the original because I made a typo and re-uploaded it here:

Are vending tables still available? I have a bunch of stuff I could sell. Otto, Spoon, or Matt-el... if anybody wants to go half-ses on some tables let me know.
You can contact Dan and Gary directly through the site to find out for sure, but last I heard vending was again filling up very quickly this year.
Later.
Even though I made some harsh criticism on last year's show, I'll probably be going again. What can I say, it was a complete change and impending father-dom that got me thinking too hard.
Anyway, I think this would be show #5 for me, I can't recall. Probably won't buy as much this year unless my job situation improves. Anyone know if Dave's gonna have his booth again this year? I'm kinda addicted to picking up his NES hack/homebrew carts he has for sale as I've gotten one the last two years and enjoy the hell out of them.
I am debating how the weekend will work out for me. I had originally planned to spend Saturday and Sunday in Milwaukee, but one of my favorite bands is playing in Appleton on Saturday night. What to do...
Also if anyone needs 40 NES controllers (tested, a few being repaired atm) I might be interested in selling. I'll spam looking for a couple inches on a table if I decide to sell (and cut the buyer in on the 2 monies).
See my latest arcade repair at the Holodeck 2 Arcade Repair Blog: http://holodeck2arcade.blogspot.com
I'm planning on attending, I just have to wait till megabus has booking all set for the days.
