2014 Midwest Gaming Classic
« on: January 22, 2014, 09:38:09 AM »
So, who's going to the 2014 Midwest Gaming Classic?

It will be on Saturday & Sunday, April 12-13 in Brookfield, WI (near Milwaukee).


Unless something happens to our schedule, my sister and I should be there again this year.  Last year was our first time to attend, and we really enjoyed it.

I'm planning on it...and bringing another local (to my area) along to meet the obey heads. Don't worry, he does not drink as much as me. It's been too long since I was able to make a MGC...I canceled a tourney for it...it's serious, yo.

Save the Spotted Cow, I'm coming!

I was planning to finally attend this year, but it looks like it's not going to happen once again.

Barring any setbacks at work, I should be there.
SignofZeta: What a quintessentially PCEFX thread. Someone complains about nothing, multiple Bible-length posts discussing who's a bigger a$$hole follow. You're both pretty big a$$holes. Let's call it a tie.

BEST THANG EVAR!!!

For those looking for more info, please check out the official site here for booking hotels and convention hours/events.  It's shaping up to be literally, the BIGGEST event yet!!

This year we're looking for even more input and participation from everyone coming!  We're opening up the Museum/gaming area longer for more gaming and enjoyment! 




Returning to MGC is TURBO FEST!  An entire room dedicated to everything NEC.  We're going to have a rokken banner up with promotional sponsorship from Aetherbyte, The PC Engine Software Bible, Epona Soft and a cheap plug for the HuPack's HuCast.  ;)

If anyone is looking to participate, loan us games/consoles/projects/books/toys etc or whatever at the time of the convention we'll gladly add them to our event!!  Just let myself, Matthius, BlueBMW or Jeffy Lewis know via PM or email.  =)

Can't wait to hang out with everything again this year!!

I'm hoping to make it.  I just started a new job and want to get a little more "cred" in there before asking for some time off (I'll likely drive up), but I think it's a "probably" atm. Very excited to see y'all again!

If you have a whole room, will you need more systems? Or are doing gun games + turbo in the room? I can pack up a system if we just want MORE. A Shuttle or Duo can fit easy on my carry-on, not like games take up much room.

I wanted to make this, but starting a hopefully new job very well may change those plans .  Swimby Sad.  :(
NW: Hey, I made it on this psycho's Enemies' List, how about that ?? ;)

BT: Look at how the fake SFII' carts instantly sold out and were immediately listed on eBay before the flippers even took possession. Look at Nintendo's overpriced bricks. Look at the typical forum discussions elsewhere.

You can't tell most retro gamers anything!

We could definitely use the shuttle!  That'll look super sweet!!

As for a solid list on consoles/games to bring -I'm sure we'll move around some things regarding the plans for the event, but for now the more you guys can bring to be involved, the less crap I have to bring with.  ;)

Wish I could be there.  Milwaukee is not a convenient place to get to from California, unfortunately.
