Too bad the Midwest Gaming Classic is in the Middle of Nowhere.

Look on the bright side - at least it's not in Jersey. *

can't say i've ever been to this, but looking into it, i am SO going if i can swing it with the budget and the schedule
that being said, if i were to go, i'd be totally up for a PCEFX meetup, sounds like it could be a lot of fun.

(also, surprisingly enough, the GF got real excited when i told her about this thing...  :dance:)

On that note, it's refreshing to learn that Milwaukee now has an airport.

Adding PCE console specific layer on top of that, makes for an interesting challenge (no, not a reference to Ys II).

Well, the working electricity thing had to happen sooner or later too... Running everything off of generators and AA's was getting pretty expensive!  ;)

On a side note, since I'm closer to Chicago than Milwuakee I've checked the prices of hotels and convention centers...  To say the least, if we moved the show there (which won't happen), ticket prices would likely triple and that's before we rent things like tables or have a bunch of electricians plug our "complicated" electronics in for us.  :(

Later.

I have no nostalgic memories of JJ and Jeff. That said I have a pretty good time with it. Not the best platformer ever, but serviceable. :)

More Turbo/PCE than I figured would be there last time I went.  I assume 16-bit will be there...he can be a bit pricey but has quality stuff.

As for noteworthy in town..all depends what you're looking for ;)

Last year I only saw two vendors with a large amount of it. Mad Gear LLC and one other Gentleman with some generally overpriced PCE and Neo Geo inventory.
