Went for the first time this year. Had fun and it was a great time. Was cool to have gaming and arcade machine enthusiasts in the mix. The after party was super cool. Best was playing a lot of Ghost Squad.

That being said waiting three deep at every pin is not going to bring me back. They needed 100 percent more machines to satisfy the people that were there imho. Of course this would greatly increase the need for space. I would say it has outgrown its current space. Maybe they will pursue getting a bigger and nicer venue, and adding one day to the show. (Open on Friday).

I get your point but don't have time/means to lug a game there. Was short on time so flew in. Man were my arms tired. The layout of the space was cool. You had to travel the halls and visit rooms. If you have not been, you can imagine crawling through a fraternity house.

Maybe by adding a day, it would help string out the crowd. Make Friday $25 so it is cheaper and now many people would choose between attending one of those days instead of both two days. Also if there were 200 games, pick a number of games you think are needed and plan to make it happen. I am positive it is possible to lay things out more efficiently and get more games per same space. I would have swapped arcade and vendor rooms, getting more space to house games and been more selective on vendors in renting smaller space.

Those few simple changes would have made a big impact in a good way. Maybe add a few more years to this
venue while searching for another. Also these would bring me back.

My hats off to organizers and everyone that helped and everyone bringing games. I had a great time and talked with fantastic pinheads.
