2014 Portland Retro Gaming Expo

PRGE is coming up October 18-19. I just booked my flight to Portland and I'm all set to go! This is the first major gaming event I'm going to. I was wondering if any of you here on the forums will be going.

I am proud to be one of the five people right now watching baseball on TV rather than football :P  I would like to go to PRGE one of these days, it is only about 6 hours away.  Probably something I will do when I become one of those responsible adult things.

I've been wanting to go for years. I'm not that far away. It's a little bit of a drive, but still within driving distance from me. But I have a baby on the way, so no money to spend on a trip and gaming purchases at the moment.

And I don't know of this football you speak of.

I went to PRGE last year. Unfortunately this year I'm going to be crazy busy during the month of October and cannot make it. I had a great time, the City of Portland is awesome, and I'd recommend going for sure.

Had a good time. I played a lot of pinball, even if I'm not that good at them. They had a lot of classics: Black Knight, Dr. Dude, Pin*Bot, Medieval Madness, Haunted House, Fireball and many many others. I also played a bunch of arcade cabinets I hadn't played in person. I met and talked with Gamerster81 for a bit. I went to his panel with MetalJesus and the other All Gen Gamers guys. Bought Lolo from Pat the NES Punk and a lot of other games that'll collect dust. :) Talked with Marc Ericksen and got one of his prints. He had a good panel too. Took a picture of Howard Scott Warshaw playing Galaxian too. lol

Very cool. I swear I'm going one of these years. I'm in driving distance, it's a long drive, but it's doable.

I always seem to be broke when it rolls around, so even though I live in Portland, I have to steer clear :/
