World Record Galaxian attempt at Eurocade 2012
« on: August 23, 2012, 01:58:18 pm »



We are extremely proud and excited to let you know that Aart van Vliet, official World Record holder on Galaxian will attempt to set a NEW WORLD RECORD at Eurocade 2012 !!!

Aart was already our guest at Eurocade 2011 and we were able to witness some mind-blowing gameplay by him on the most brilliant NAMCO shooter ever...

Apart from this, Aart turned out to be a really nice guy and we had some nice talk during Eurocade and then we popped the question (sorry, I forgot who it was) if he would be willing to try his own record on home ground and to our joy he agreed !

The Eurocade team feels that this is an excellent combination of events. It means a lot of great publicity for Eurocade and of course Aart will have a great setting to push his record even further.

The details still need to be worked out. It looks like we will give him a good spot in the bar area (this will be the only game there) so the visitors will be able to follow his progress. We will put the gameplay on the beamer so everyone can follow clearly.

We are working to get the attempt on a live stream so fans around the world will be able to view it live !

I hope you guys are as excited as we are !

Eurocade is a meeting of European collectors of classic arcade (video) games.

A meeting, where the goal is that collectors bring one (or more) of their games with them so all of them can enjoy eachothers’ games...
But of course, the first, and most important goal, is to bring together people from all over Europe who enjoy collecting, restoring, fixing and playing those classic arcade videogames.

We already have confirmations of people coming from The Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, France, United Kingdom, Denmark and even Hungary !!!
