I had planned on going, but with a new job in a new state, it's going to have to wait until next year :(

There's a dealer there who thinks using a pen to crossthrough an MVS's serial number and writing a new serial number in it's place qualifies as "kit has matching serial numbers."

Bought an AES at the event, was the first time my wife and I attended. We had a great time. Wish I'd known about this forum before I went, would have been cool to say hello. Ah well, maybe next year.

And that said, HELLO! I'm new here.

Bump.

A little over a month until this years show. Who's coming up?

Anyone here that's thinking of coming, please visit Mad-Gear LLC's (16-bit/Carlson's) booth. I will be there most of the time as will Carlson.

Yeah, I've been so busy this year that I haven't had a great chance to visit many forums and bring up the show until now. We added a new museum wing this year and that basically means a whole lot of additional work for me now, hehe.

I'll spare you guys the copy & paste from the website (www.midwestgamingclassic.com) and dive into the Neo stuff that I'm aware of. Of course there are going to be a number of different Neo shops at the MGC's vendor hall including for the first time Quan's Arcade Works and his Omega console. I just got a chance to pick one of these up and I have to say I'm very impressed with it!

The museum will have plenty of Neo as well. The DHG room in particular will have a Neo CD, AES, MVS (the aforementioned Omega), and the Neo-Geo X. We're planning on having the Omega and the Neo-Geo X side-by-side in the room on identical monitors. I realize there are plenty of comparisons already out there, but regardless it should be interesting to see the two units in action side-by-side.

Then there is of course the arcade halls where there always tends to be at least a few Neo-Geo cabs set up.

The show starts in little over a week, Saturday, March 23. There are also Friday events including a tournament called Up to Par that always has at least one Neo Geo as a part of it...

Later.
