AND based on surveys we give out at expo not having enough games is NOT that big a deal to most... The selection of STERN games MY odd ball rare games and the overall expo expieience overpowers not having a zilion games I believ las tyears count was like 175 or so.. respectable

Personally, I couldn't disagree more.
and it is not just me. There are so many newbies, that have never seen or played hundreds of titles (most from before 1981) and shows are the place to get to get a taste.
I am not being negative, trust me, that would be way too easy. How many of you guys have ever seen or played a spirit or jet spin. Maybe I am going to shows for the wrong reason, but there are some shows that really have an awesome selection of working games. hundreds!
Every year I count the games in the free play room, not the ones in the vendor room, or mikes games, just the free play room, because I play at night when everybody sleeps, and the last 4 years it has been between 65,-75 games, on sat.
