Countdown to CGE 2007 ~ July 28th & 29th, 2007 ~ 28 JUL 2007 |
CGE 2007™ NEWS & EVENTS
The CGE Swap Meet Room
Last year we changed the way the CGE Swap Meet goes. In the "old days" we had a single hour between the close of the exhibit hall and the auction on Saturday. As of last year, we have a room with tables dedicated specifically to those of you who want to wheel and deal - something quite common for gamers and collectors! This year will work the same way. The Swap Meet Room will open one hour after the show opens and close one hour before the show closes.
Tables are "rented" for an hour at a time for a small fee, all of which is donated to our sponsor, Special Olympics. Some of the best deals of the show happen in this room where games are often exchanged in preference to cash. Bring your trade box and hook up with other gamers to fill those gaps in your collection!
Oldergames.com announces CGE releases for
3DO, Saturn, C64, PC, and more
Oldergames.com is going to be displaying some brand new games for some older systems at Classic Gaming Expo 2K7.

Free Shuttles to the Pinball Hall of Fame
Just minutes from CGE is the famous Pinball Hall of Fame. The museum has 4500 square feet dedicated to a plethora of pinball machines, where the entire family can enjoy hundreds of non-violent pinball arcade games for small dinero. All machines are available for play, so not only can you see them, you can actually play your old favorites. The pinball machines are all restored to like-new playing condition by people that love pinball and understand how a machine should work. All older pinball machines are set to 25 cents per play, and newer 1990s models are set to 50 cents per play. A far better return on fun than any Las Vegas casino environment, and the museum actually has windows and a clock in the room! It takes more than slot machines to keep tourists happy, and the Pinball Hall of Fame is trying its best to do just that. More details to come, stay tuned.
