The Portand Retro Gaming Expo is this week in Portland, OR. Our arcade (Ground Kontrol) will have some vids there in the freeplay arcade. (I think there's 30-40 arcade machines planned to be there in addition to a metric assload of console stuff.)

The local Fox station ran a nice little promo on their "Good Day Oregon" program which they shot inside GK, so I figured some of you might like to see the clip. Classics still earning quarters from the public. ;-)

Thanks for posting that, Clay. Are you going to be at the show much? Maybe I'll finally get to meet you there.

Hopefully one of the local stations is going to do a segment after the show too including footage of our games there. It's pretty exciting to see the arcade game side of the show ramp up over the last couple of years with the help of the PAC guys and Ground Kontrol.

I'm going to try to come by and at least check things out. I've got a couple other demands for my time those days though (and it's always tempting to go to Ground Kontrol and do a little maintenance when there's a lot of our regular customers somewhere else-- easier to get at stuff. ;-)

I think we're trying to bring games we'd just as soon sell and free up some storage space. We're getting pretty packed in all our rented storage areas...

I might hang out at the booth for a while though, so come by and introduce yourself on the off chance our schedules overlap!
