From everything I heard, MAGfest this year was garbage. blah blah...
Hater...I'll give you any con has issues and you only hear of the bitching b/c ppl that had a good time do not spam social media as much as piss ants. I only goto MAG for arcades and the museum. I've never seen a concert in the decade I've been going...I might have seen one panel is as much time. With that said, can't wait for more Sack attendance! (I only went to Retropalozer for Game Sack).

The computer museum area was awesome. By the way, does anyone have any pictures of it?

Nice pictures. Loved seeing the Shuttle, SuperGrafx, CoreGrafx, etc. I think I need one of those Shuttle pads. Were all those RGB scart? What about the Genesis? It was great seeing Bloodlines on that monitor.

Do you know about Bit Brigade? I'd recommend you check them out. Definitely a unique experience with the live speedrunning and the band playing along to what the player does.

Hey so I was talking to this guy who was helping at the museum and I forgot to get his info/Facebook. I was talking to him about calibrating my CRT TV. He had long black hair and said he lives in VA. He was going to calibrate my TV if I couldn't find anyone closer to where I live. Does anyone know who he is?
I'd rather be playing guitar or listening to a PC Engine CD soundtrack.

The RX, Mega Drive, MkIII and SCV where running RGB. The 7800 and SFC was s-vid, rest was composite. Rob forgot the BNC<->SCART connector for his SFC, but it would have been RGB.

that was Shawn...but there are two Shawns. You can email museum@magfest.org if you want to get in touch.

Hmm I was thinking his name was Mike for some reason. If it helps, he also said he brought the TV from 1952. Anyway thanks I'll try that e-mail.
