Well I went to the swap meet today,
It was fun, I picked up three C64 Cartridges
(Jupiter Lander, Radar Rat Race, and Speed/Bingo Math...)
Each was about a buck or so... there was not too much Commodore
Stuff with the exception of Tpug's own Joseph, manning his two tables.
I would have picked up one of those super cool Joysticks he was selling...
but I'm not an 8 bit gamer so I did not need one...
I purchased the above cartridges for the board and the case... :)
Really not sure what I will do with them...
The chicken wings, beer, and ribs were good, and I got to see a few old
Arcade cabinets...and a Vectrix, which someone was carrying away as I got
there..
Bummer...
I guess the highlight of the show for me, was the winning of the
Stand up Arcade cabinet for Monaco GP by Sega. Pretty cool...
My wife was less than thrilled when I showed it to her...
But at least it has a safe home for now... My nephew came over
And put a few quarters in it...(ok just kidding... I let him play
For free)
All and all it was a good show, I was hoping to see more computers,
But it was a video game swap meet, not a vintage computer swap meet...
(now that would be great!!!)
Cheers.
