PAX 07: A 'retroasis' in the midst of newness
Feeling pretty exhausted from all of the modern gaming happening on the show floor, I was very pleased to discover the Northwest Classic Games Enthusiasts hidden in a corner room on another floor. They had tons of systems set up in the space, with each TV doing double or triple duty. When I went in, there was a game of SNES Street Fighter II Turbo going next to GoldenEye and Vectrex Rip-Off.
Happy to sit for a moment in what I consider my element (old junk) I took a turn at Rip-Off, promptly lost, and got right back up again. I checked out the display table, and tried to buy the display copy of Night Trap off of the NWCGE people. No luck! But, then, isn't not buying Night Trap considered the luckier outcome?
