I usually volunteer time and loan a candy cab or two to the event (So far the only candies that have been in the arcade there) but I've been so buried at work/life lately that I don't know if I'm going to be able to do either this year. Plus the fact that I have one and a half cabs down at the moment and haven't had any time to work on them...
But if I have the weekend off, I'll probably be there.

I heard it out beats cge! A friend of mine was telling me about it and seems like an awesome expo to check out! If cge doesn't happen in 2015, then I will most likely fly to Portland to experience Portland retro gaming expo for myself!!!!

Portland's where it's at. You got a second chance in Jan 2015 for that NW Gaming Swap Meet. Just bring your A game for all the Portland gaming hipsters.
Gabe: You gonna make it out here next year?

I checked out the local goodwill yesterday and saw a YouTube guy I watch snatch up a bunch of N64s as they were being put out. I heard him tell a dude he was getting them to sell at the show. No hard feelings but it sucks to get shot down the only time I will ever be there.

dammit, i never knew this existed!! it's only a three-hour drive away, but there's no way me and my family could go. too many "Normal, Important" things
for us to focus our time and money on right now. further, i'd probably need a few hundred in spending money just to walk out with ANYTHING, so fuck it all...

It's just 7 minutes from my house and the greatest retro gaming expo of it's kind, so of course I'm going. It keeps getting bigger and better every year. Can't wait to hit the expo on Saturday!

I think I waited too long to volunteer a cab this year. Unless I pull something out of my ass tomorrow afternoon, prepare for a candy-less arcade.
Y'all should still go to the show, though. It owns.

There was one candy with TSS and MotW in it last year, and a mini cute that didn't work. I was happy just playing all those Asteroid machines.
