Quoted from LongJohns:I hear you, there are many arcade collectors with large collections, but no one seems to want to bring anything?
Arcades are heavy and awkward. I love em but hate to move them.
Any word of someone bringing a virtual pin?

I'll bring my single slot neo geo conversion it's in a street fighter cab. I was hoping to get my 161 in 1 cart before then. But I do have a metal slug and a samurai showdown I guess if not.
Any contributions to the show add value for sure, if you are planning on bringing anything please use the bring a machine form on the website so we know it is coming to the event.

I'm thinking about bringing a game up. Not sure which one though.
Could bring:
* A nice players Star Gazer
* STTNG w/ LEDs, colorLCD (currently on location at the Trap & Gill in Calgary)
* Possibly a restored Flash Gordon, though I'm surprised there isn't one listed for the show already, thought they were common as flees up there...
Seems like a rarer game like Star Gazer would be better, plenty of STTNGs around in comparison. Maybe someone local can bring one for the show.
Thoughts?
Quoted from toasterman04:Dude!!!! Metal slug is awesome
Haha yea it's great! My brother and I were jamming out hard on it the other night in my garage! After I changed out a joystick.
Quoted from pins4life33:Any contributions to the show add value for sure, if you are planning on bringing anything please use the bring a machine form on the website so we know it is coming to the event.
I will sign it up for sure, just hoping the 161 in 1 cart comes before the show so that It has a little more selection atleast. If nothing else tons of metal slugs to choose from! Lol
I like metal slug, baseball stars, and super dodgeball and 1945! On the 161! Other then that mostly it's fighting games. Lots I don't know on the list tho.
Any of those are machines are great options we haven't had any of those titles committed to the FREE PLAY room. (Am I giving hints away again I tell ya you guys are going to get me fired)...
We definitely like rarer games at the show that people don't get to play everyday, but all are good choices we didn't have two of these at the show last year. Your choice for sure...

I'd love to try a TNG we had one out last year but it was having issues so I never got to try it.
Hey, just wanted to check since I didn't see anything announced here but are weekend passes no longer available? The page itself says the deadline to buy is April 15 and I know the deadline for the pre order bonus was in March.
The website said those were weekend pass pre sales tix... just have to buy one at the door! Or you can buy a pin before then and donate it Noah! That way you get to come to the VIP party too! Also noticed there was no roadshow on the list yet! RED &TED would be upset if they weren't invited!
Quoted from pins4life33:First machine will be announced on Saturday, hint it is already listed on the site you have a 1 in 85 chance of guessing, good luck!!!!
Ac/dc pro?
You are correct, in fact the weekend pass we will extend this right up to the show dates if you want to purchase. However, the pre-purchase bonus did end on March 15, 2017. So if you want to purchase your weekend pass you can do so. This way you can go directly to the VIP desk for sign in and don't have to do at the door as there may be lineups for regular admission. The link should be and working again by this afternoon. We will clean up this process for next year and probably not have weekend passes available at the door these will have to be all pre-purchased if you want the discounted rate for the weekend. Sorry for the confusion.

Ok thanks for the clarification. That makes sense now! I expected in my head that we would be able to buy them online even after the pre-order bonus deadline passed.

Good to go! Thanks noahd42 !
Thanks, much appreciated. Keep up the good work, definitely looking forward to the event!
For sure lot of Calgary guys will be there we can send to back with one of them but we would rather see you there in person to pick it up.
Quoted from Spencer:Wondering... If I cant end up coming, could someone pickup my " VIP free stuff" for me?

As would I and I still have plans to attend, loved last year's show! It just might not happen, so just checking...
We can transfer a pass into another person's name just send us an email. However if you had a personalized pass it cannot be changed now.
Quoted from dirkdiggler:Can you sell your vip pass?
You should start to see these (in B&W) posted up around Edmonton soon. If you have a place that you would like to put one up and help us promote the event PM this account and we will mail you one out. We will also be leaving some 5x7 postcards around town. Thanks everyone who supported so far! Just over a month to go!
Quoted from aeonblack:Well, there goes my chances at being champ
We'll have to practice up.
