I'll be there!

Sounds like a blast! Wish I could be there.. with about a grand to spend :)

I will be there......I hope. I will know Friday.

I'm going.

Who wants to meet up?

A friend of mine gave me the best locations to the arcades in the area. 

I wish it would've been a month later...I'm going to Vegas the wk of August 27.

Yep, me and Scott should be there unless something comes up.

The RF Gen list of people who're going:

Captain Nintendo
Fighter17 (me)
Tynstar
ApolloBoy

Captain Nintendo and ApolloBoy, expect PMs. 

Well, me and tynstar (Scott) just got back from CGE2K7!!!!!

Expect to see a lot of pictures very soon. We met Fighter17, but I don't think Apolloboy was there?

I naturally gravitated towards the NES collectors ;)

NationalGameDepot, Wizard666, Dr. Morbius and Jumpman Jr. were a blast!

Jason, Mike and Basil (sp?)... Thanks for a good time!

Also, thanks to everybody else from DP and RFGen that I met.

A picture of the group who me and Scott spent the most time with over this past weekend.

From left to right: TheWizard666, Dr. Morbius, Captain Nintendo, Jumpman Jr. , NationalGameDepot and Tynstar.

At the CGE auction, sitting in the front row!

The "runway model" showing off her skills.
I had the best seat in the house for pics  ;D

Snake never saw me coming :ninja:


Sorry Tony, I killed him quickly. :owned:

Are you taking a picture of me Joe? (digitpress)

Well, right back at you :P

Princess Peach!

More to come!

f'ing great pictures my man. keep em coming!  what was at the auction?  and those mystery boxes? 

Awesome pics, wish I could have been there.

The auction was amazing! I won a Emerson Arcadia and 8 games all CIB !!!!!!!!!!

Rick will post pics to show what was at the auction.

Oh the Snake in the pics went for 450 at the auction.

I have to agree that all the pics are really sweet. I'm looking forward to seeing the auction spoils.

There were 4 total mystery boxes.

The first 2 had nothing special in them.
Box #3 had 5 different Atari prototypes
Box #4 had....... VIDEO LIFE!!!! with the manual. (value estimated at 2900)

Last year, one of the Mystery boxes had a Magicard in it (also a very rare Atari game)

The mystery box went for 1600 dollars. As soon as the auction was over the guy that one it had 5 offers for it.

This is the tag for the next picture. There were a lot of cool items in the video game museum.

Read description above ^

You could sit down and play the games out on the floor!

All of the arcade games were set to "free play"  :)

An interview going on for Retro Gaming Radio.

Check Retro Gaming Radio out sometime. Scott highly recommends it ;)

Some really cool Intellivision stuff.

Look!

Posted this because I've never seen this version before.

This sold for 3,000 if I remember correctly. (No, not the girl :P)

Here is Scott paying for some items he won at the auction.

Joe is in the Red Hat (Joe = Digitpress)
Sean Kelly is in the Blue Hat.

Edit: Earl "Phosphor Dot Fossils" is slumping off in the background. ;)

I've got some more, but I'll save them for later.


A big thank you to all of the guys at Digitpress who made the show possible.

Man, you just had to show me slumped in the back after the auction, didn't ya?   :D

First off..... Wow!!! Welcome to RFGen.

Secondly, well you were very busy taking pictures and lugging those cameras around all day. I think you deserved to take a load off for a bit.

Rick and Scott looked so different than what I'm expected.

It was a good show.

As did you.

i think it was a great show as well. Would of been nice to see more vendors though.

Now only that, but more Sega imports and stuff like that.

They were tons of Famicom imports, but only a few Megadrive imports.  :(

So, Capt Nintendo, what happened after you attacked Snake?

I can't really share details, as it's rated AO. But I can use a forum tool to show what happened.



 :owned:

'nuff said.

You bought it?

No, he Sam Fisher'd it. :ninja:

It was awesome to meet you Captain Nintendo and Tynstar; my wife and I had a great time at the show.  The DP party was fun but the lack of hard liquor impeded my maximum enjoyment. 

If we're there next time, I'll be brown bagging some Grey Goose and Patrón.

It shall be epic.

Read the caption above the picture where I am behind Snake. And then Tondog asked:

And then I posted my reply.  :owned:

Sounds awesome!

I haven't been around here lately, but that really was great meeting the handful of you guys that showed up, played a few games, found a few deals and just had the best time.  I just wish the party had a little bit more life to it, it was a blast but it could've been more... lively?

I was at CGE on SUN for about 4 hrs - not enough time to see anything - but nice running into some familiar faces!

-Rob

I agree. I had fun, but it could have been more lively. That being said, I liked talking with the DP and RFGen guys who were there.

I had a great time.  It was awesome to meet some of you guys.  Especially Tynstar and Captain Nintendo, I didn't even know you guys were coming and they we found each other in line.  Fun stuff, was a great weekend for sure.  I am already making plans to attend next year as well, this time we a NA booth though :D
