I should be able to get over for at least one of the days, depends how things go with my other project I guess.
Hope it goes really well in any case.

The big guys are likely only concerned if they see cabs being aimed at the coin's market which is theirs of course. Likely not bothered about the hobbyist market.

Hi all
Interesting reading ,But as you just said this will not affect them in anyway ,This show is to fill the gap between the two sides of arcade gaming and Mame is more than welcome at this show as it was at every Atei event for the last few years even pinball was mamed at Atei 3 years ago with the ultra pin ,
Rest assured no one will be complaining whats on offer as I'm not trying to target arcade buyers ,This show will be for the forgotten peeps who like games not £20,000 Sims

Sounds interesting, but where is the main focus ? I think it's the new(er) games ? How about dedicated classics ? If there's a number of restorers showing their machines I'd be very tempted to come over for the weekend. I might even be able to bring a machine along...
Mmmm, Harwich-Northampton, two hours and fifteen minutes driving....not bad !

the focus is arcade video whatever genre,most will be candy cabs but with forum input we will have a good mix of mame and classic
we have many dedicated coming from both collectors and distributors,there will a mix of old and new
we hope to see many refurbished cabs at the show,if people like yourself bring cabs then that will increase the diversity
we are very interested in people bringing the old classics

Well, I shouldn't be so nit-picking anyway, I think this is a fabulous initiative !!! :D
I'm reserving the weekend in the agenda but there might be one thing more important happening that could stop me from visiting.
Any bed & breakfasts/hotels in the area that you can recommend ? Would be good info to add to the site. Maybe a "package" deal can be made ?
Just some ideas/suggestions of course. I just copied the info to the Benelux arcade forum www.gameroom.eu

Hope you don't mind ?
