Chicago Expo, September 30, 2006

Post by MacbthPSW »

Full details here: http://starbase.globalpc.net/eccc/

It's primarily a C64/128 event, but there will be at least a few VIC-20 fans there too. I hope Jeff and others are able to make it out!

Jeff: It'd be cool if you brought a VIC system, and showed off your various games and newsletters, etc. that you've made over the years.

Leif: Any idea if some of the Toronto crew can make it?

I'm interested in buying/trading VIC-20 carts there, so contact me with lists if you think you can make it.

I definitely won't be able to make it :cry: My wife, baby, and I will be in Tokyo for the last two weeks of September 8)

I don't know about the rest of the Toronto crew - I'm not sure they've heard about it yet. If you're on the torontocbm list you could post details there.

Tokyo? Vacation or business? I share a place in Minami Senju. If it's your first time, I can definately recommend some game spots! I still have had no luck in landing a Vic-1001 :x

Shit! I'm not going to be able to make it to the expo! I can't believe it. I was really looking forward to it. Someone post pictures for the rest of us.

Jeff, 6502dude, sorry you guys couldn't make it. We had a great time, and had quite a good turn-out.

Links to pictures, and a fairly official announcement about next year can be found at the ECCC webpage:

Hope next year works out for you(s)!
