FA: Collector Video Game Tradeshow Pins
« on: March 24, 2005, 05:50:11 pm »
Back in the early to mid 90's I used to attend the CES tradeshow twice a year. It's like Comdex but for consumer electronics, and back then, that's where all the video game publishers showed off their new games (E3 came along in '94). What a blast it was when they had it in Vegas!

Anyways, companies always hand out stuff to promote their games or themselves. Everybody clamored for the pins. Pins are expensive to make, so the quantities were always limited. I amassed a nice little collection and turns out I have duplicates, so away they go on Ebay:

Thanks for looking.
