This is the first year I was able to attend the show. Everyone involved did a fantastic job and I appreciate all the work to put it together. From the organizers, vendors, and those that brought out their games for everyone to enjoy. Thank you!!
There was a great variety of games at the show and I was pleasantly surprised to see my old Blackjack machine there and meet the new owners. It was running the custom code I wrote. That added a couple new tunes and changed the rules. One of the few games that will reduce your score if you mess up. Really makes that particular machine more interesting. Seeing how well people enjoyed the upgrade makes me want to see what I can do for other old Bally machines.
Having the vendors dragging out parts is awesome and I hope others bring extra spares next years. Already fixed a couple of the project boards from John Dayhuff, found a coinbox from another vendor, and some new parts from Pinball life.
Finally was able to try out a Robowars machine and found out that a friend was the owner. Didn't even know he had any games until the show. It was a fun way to reconnect.
Definitely looking forward to next year.
