I'd like to bring my two Ataris but they'd never survive the weekend.

I'll probably bring an arcade or two.

Quoted from Whysnow:

please bring either of your pins!!!! I love them both and have limited time on either!

We'll see.

Middle Earth needs some kind of adjustment virtually every time I power it on, and AA needs a lot of cleaning up. I have to find some of the rotary solenoid style flipper bats, I don't think the regular ones can be modified to work. There are countless reasons these stupid Ataris aren't very common, lol.

Quoted from HoneyBadger:

He said it was larger so I was saying there's no way they have over 400 pins.

In terms of total size of the show (pins, vids, console stuff, and the vendor area), it's likely larger.

Quoted from Jazman:

Actually, I think most sellers would pull the game Saturday if sold. But, Sunday is the best day for a better price though.

You also run the risk of missing out by waiting for Sunday pricing, though. I missed a great price on a Hollywood Heat by about a half hour last year.

Quoted from epthegeek:

What's a great price on hollywood heat? $50? Because; hollywood heat.

Ouch.

I've been itching to do a Miami Vice retheme.

Quoted from DanQverymuch:

I was bummed, too, went I got back on Sunday prepared to leave with HH but it was gone.
$50 is just insulting, ha ha. Wasn't it like $600 though? No $6000 game is 10 times as fun...

The "Oldtimers" is kicking in...I thought it'd been $900 down to $750, but it might have been $750 down to $600. Regardless, I called the guy Sunday after I saw the price drop and had just missed it.

He who hesitates...

Quoted from DanQverymuch:

I wonder if anyone has re-themed it, a candidate if ever there was one.

To be fair, it's been done before.

Quoted from DanQverymuch:

Cool, but not much of a stretch! Just a TL? Or did they change sounds and/or rules?

Not sure on this one...I just stumbled onto the pic.

I know a Pinsider did a complete retheme to The Goonies on a HH a few years back, with all new playfield graphics and audio cues.
