Don't know for sure. The site says retro games for sale. I don't know more than that.

Well, maybe not. Anyone want free entry for Sat. Oct. 28. That's the day that the vendors open. I've got one free admission for whoever is certain they will use it.

I'll be there as a volunteer so I get in free! I'll be there Saturday and Sunday all day. It's gonna be crappity smacking sweet! It would be nice to see some NESWorld people there so I can put a face to the name.

Post if you're going. Looks like so far it's just me and JC.

Just got back from the Valley Forge Convention Center. For those NESWorld people, there was a NWC tournament on Sunday (today). The guy that runs the XPO owns a grey NWC and he had it out and people who signed up for the tournament got to play it to compete for the high score. I've never actually seen a NWC in person before. It was really cool watching people compete using an actual NWC cart.

that would be sweet to play it. So was there any NES vendors there, anything worth buying or was there steep prices.

There were plenty of NES vendors but I didn't buy anything NES because I already had it all. For the most part the prices were a little higher than fair market value but some vendors were fair. It was mostly really common games though. One vendor had a loose Color A Dinosaur and he wanted $125 for it. :o
