Commodore/Amiga at Classic Gaming Expo 2014
« on: September 05, 2014, 06:23:04 AM »
Come to the Commodore and Amiga exhibit table at the Classic Gaming Expo this September 12-14 at the Riviera Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada!  The Clark County Commodore Computer Club (of Las Vegas) will be running the table and will have some choice, classic Commodore and Amiga computers for attendees to play.  I'll be there to help them out, and I'll round out their computer collection with a NTSC VIC-20 and a PAL Plus/4.

Gaming is the focus, and the 5C's will bring out the best games for the Commodores and Amigas.  For the C64, I'll be bringing the new Multimax cartridge ( http://www.multimax.co ), the older Multicart (from Charles Gutman), the Multicart+ (from Tim Harris of England), and even the Guitar Hero guitar with PSX64 adapter and Shredz64.  For the VIC-20, I'll be bringing the Psytronik/Binary Zone releases, Theater of War, Realms of Quest, Realms of Quest IV, Carling the Spider, and maybe the classic, Outworld.  For the Plus/4, I'll be bringing the Psytronik/Binary Zone release, Adventures in Time, and demos/games recommended from the Plus/4 forum ( http://plus4world.powweb.com/forum/27344 ).

Yes, at CGE I saw flyers for the Portland Retro Gaming Expo.  I wish I could be there.

Sweet!  :)  Will the Portland Commodore User Group be there, too?
