Ha I doubt you remember me Mike but i used to come up to VGC and play the arcade machines when i was younger ( wow it must have been like 10 years ago). You can count me in for sure!
Cool, see you there. I grew up in North Olmsted and am actually going there today to visit my parents : ) Currently at the store I have a Neo Geo 2 Slot ( The 4 slot needs monitor repair ), A Playchoice-10 and a Nintendo Super System Arcade. The show will be mainly console but we are trying to work in Arcades as well. For Vendors we are down to just 7 tables left, so if you want a table go to the site now. Mike : )
Glad to hear that CCAG is still going strong...espcially now that Cinciclassic seems to have gone stagnant. I've never gotten to go myself...my friends went several years ago...while I was on vacation... Maybe I'll make it up this year.
I'll be there for sure, especially since I could walk there (I live in Fairview Park). Nice to see some retro-gamers in the area!
Even better to see some retro-gamers that you work with, lol. Why walk when i could just give you a ride there, seeing as how ill be going as well.

There's no way I could make it to this, but I'd love to play a genuine Asteroids cab again. Such a beautiful game.
Hello, 1 week later and I am finally getting around to posting NG. This was Matt and My 1st time running the show and it went pretty well for the most part. We will definately have another Arcade and Tournament Area. I unfortunately didnt get much of a chance to get things setup before I got trapped behind the registration desk for the Majority of the day. Next Year I am Hiring someone to handle the entrance : ) There was alot more I had planned, but we were running behind from the get go. I planned on having Video Game Music run over the speakers and wanted to start the Game Play/Tournament area up sooner. Luckally for Matt and I Ryan completely took over the tournament for us and did a great job. A couple Twin Galaxies High Scores were set Including Atari 2600 Kaboom and Guitar Hero III Metallica's One. Lots of shirts, Billy Mitchell's Hot Sauce and other Great prizes were given away for the Tournaments and we had some Very Cool items in the Chinese Auction. The next show we will have even More Great Tournament & Chinese Auction prizes. CCAG shirts are Now available on the website www.CCAGShow.com and I put up a few pics. Unfortunately I didnt get to take any pics until the show was pretty much over. If anyone has any show pics and would like them on my site just use the contact us on the CCAG site and you will get my e-mail. Next show is Saturday May 23, 2009 12Noon-8PM. I hope all who attended enjoyed the show and I am now more prepared for how it will be run in May. Thanks, Mike : )
