Playthrough Game Con March 19-20, Raleigh NC
« on: March 23, 2022, 09:36:42 AM »






Went to Playthrough Game Con (playthroughgc.com) last weekend with my babies. It's a newer show and the last two years kinda put a pause in their stride. I was able to bring out nine old consoles, but sadly I only had one PCE running (I wanted to have a more varied selection). I also brought 28 arcade machines. It might not be a MGC level show but maybe in the future we can have it host a TurboFest South :) (as long as I get the banner from Josh)

Noice.  What's in the pce?  The screen looks a bit like splatterhouse but the HUD doesn't.  Also, is that his mom watching him play?

I'm pretty sure it's Hana Taka Daka. I recall I put it in when I opened...but later I swapped it out with a flashcard so folks could just play whatever fit their fancy.

I was going to run a TV Vader and have it beside the two Cassette Visions so ppl could see the progression of Epoch...but I couldn't get channel 95 to run on the extra TV that was dropped off. So I put in an INTV that I had brought to help Rev at the Intellivision Revolution booth (but they did not make it).

Oh nice, Raleigh. I do quite a bit of real estate investing in that area

ROLF, the ever tease. I've learnt to not get my hopes up :) I'm sure next year will be roof repair, replacement washer/drier or redoing the deck...Ah, the never-ending home ownership lyfe, son. We just need to plan a midwest mid-nowhere Turbofest again!

Can you make it out here early June? An old friend and I are going on an odyssey in my RV and you should join us. PM me for details.
