Midwest Gaming Classic 2018

Bummer, I was hopping for NOT downtown.

I would have thought the Waukesha expo would have been the next stop.
 
thanks for posting.
Haven't been to that in years due to the overcrowding at the last place.
This looks cool.

I looked over the sponsors and vendors list. Will Galloping Ghost be setup there?
 
I have a baby coming, so crossing my fingers I can still go.

If nothing else, it is a good excuse to sit on the fence for a year and let the bugs get worked out.
 
It's coming up. Is anyone going? Is anyone bringing anything for sale? Or looking to buy anything?

I could bring some games for a parking lot sale, if I have a buyer lined up.
Pins: No Fear, Baywatch, F-14 Tomcat
Arcade games: Crystal Castles, Robotron cocktail
 
Just lost MAJOR street cred right there...:D

Really I'm just jealous as Vegas doesn't have it's classic gaming show any more...

I'll be going Saturday.

(SOLD!)

I have a 19K4915 (19" med res) I would be willing to sell for $350 (what I paid for it). I'm not looking to dump it, just sell it if someone needs it. (I'll post pictures if anyone is interested. It had the works done to it a couple of years ago before it ended up on the shelf.)

I'm looking for a couple of 13" crt monitors. (Found a pair, thanks!)

Edit: I have a couple pms about the K4915. I will post pictures.

Edit2: Pictures attached of sprint screen burn. First on picture is with lights on and than lights off. The game playing is Jurassic Part 3 (Konami). I did NOT make any adjusts on the screen. I just hooked it up.

I'm going and will represent Pixel Blast Arcade at the show. Maybe 8-10 games will come with me, depending on what kind of vehicle I bring. I may have a game or two for sale, also pending on how things play out before taking the trip.

Two surprises coming with me as well, to be announced & shown at the venue, so come seek me out & say hi. I'll have a Pixel Blast Arcade black t-shirt & so will my colleagues. I'll have some sort of space there, but I'm still working out the details.
 
Not sure if I'm going or not, but I'm 15 min south of downtown just off I-94. If anyone wants to use my place as a meeting spot for dropoffs/pickups/storage you can PM me. I've done this in the past, particularly helpful if someone is coming in from out of the area but the other party can't make it until later. Can also leave trailers if you're in town for the weekend and don't want to mess around with finding a spot for them downtown.

For those that have been to my place before, I moved last Fall so contact me for new address.

If there's any interest, I could host a small party Friday night, or Saturday evening for those not attending the after hours party at the site.

Also, looking for a nice Gorf!

Parking suggestion, as a downtown Milwaukee resident. If you're driving to the event, park on the street 5 or more blocks away from the event on the street. (Free after 6) and take a Lyft or Uber to the event.
