Aye, lots of Atari fans there. I don't understand the Atari mentality. You'll probably see some cool stuff you'll most likely never see again. Some guy had an Amiga 32 there last year. Another had the horrible CDi Zelda games. Tons of Atari homebrews abound. We're pretty much loved and hated all at the same time, we neo fans at OVGE. A guy I met last year had tons of ROM backups for just about all cartridge systems.
It's a lot of fun, but I'm not sure I'd drive from Texas to Tulsa for it.
There were quite a few booths last year I hope more will come this year.
The CDi dude was trying to talk me into a virtual boy setup for pretty cheap.
I saw a Vectrex for the first time up close.
There were TONS of SNES, Genesis, and Saturn games. Not to mention the insane amount of Atari stuff on showcase.
One booth had the Onimusha sword controller.
There was a contest for the limited edition Space Invaders PS2 cocktail table controller.
A main contest was held for large prizes, I get there to late to play in this. They had a Crazy Taxi remote control car! It was awesome!
I subscribed to a quarterly classic gaming mag. It's from a place in St. Louis if I remember correctly. Pretty cool little mag.
The company that produces the wireless SNES and NES controllers had reps there.

Not really sure if it would be worth driving up from Dallas unless you were going to be in town anyway... It's upto you though.
But you never know.
