TurboFest @Midwest Gaming Classic is coming!!!
IMG

MGC is fastly approaching!! We will once again be holding our very own little TurboFest in our very own little area!  We'll have 6-8 TVs with open gaming running all weekend. 

If you're coming to the show be sure to stop by and say 'hello'!

If you're coming to the show and would like to ACTUALLY HELP OUT we could use a couple CRT TVs for gaming on and if you have a Turbo/PCE system you'd like to share with others we could use those too!

If you are interested in helping out, simply reply to this thread saying so, Pm me or check out our FB page for the TurboFest- Tour

We're really looking forward to another awesome weekend!
Keep an eye out for more TurboFest events coming later in the year as well!!

I'm driving up again as well.  Last year I brought my 27" and TG16/CD setup.  I can do that again if you could use it, though I may try to find a smaller TV to haul up.  That 27"er is heavier than it ought to be. :)  I'll also be bringing up my PCE briefcase setup (chopper is going to help me repair a drive) and I'll have my Express which has a larger screen, controller port, region mod, and av out (though the av out is a bit wonky right now).

I'll also have the homebrew stuff handy as well (Atlantean, Protocade, all the cd-based stuff).

I wasn't planning on lugging up the TV and TG16/CD setup, but would be more than happy if you need them. :)

Dan Iacovelli

I will not be at MGC this year due cost and travel issues plus I want use that time work on VGS'15
those on the VGS staff have already gotten the information about VGS, so try bring in some people from MGC(I don't whats going on JF at MGC,since we are down a man besides me and one is deciding

Quote from: Nulltard on 02/22/2015, 08:40 PMOh man I hope to see all of you at MGC. For all this shit you give me, I have some major cropdusting planned. You are aware that turbofest is confined to a small room, right?
I'm not worried.
two words:

BEER SHITS

Thank you ROLFYMAYO, we'll get a better idea of how many people are coming and helping out with bringing consoles and TVs in probably another month.  If we're short any CRT TVs I'll be able to bring those.  I think we're hoping for around 8 for the room.  :D

  • 27" CRT
Excellent!  Those will be perfect for some SNES and CDi gamin'!!

I'm actually interested in a DoxPhile coffee mug!!

Thanks guys!!

I'll only have 11 of these bad boys to hand out, but i'll make sure you get one. :D
I want to go just for the mug.

But honestly, I'm working on my trip. Hopefully I can carpool with some local friends of mine who are nintendorks but gamers nonetheless. I hope I can coax them into staying in the Turbo room and where the conversion will take place. :)

I doubt I'll have very much money to spend on the vendors, but it sounded like I wouldn't really be finding many deals anyway. The Turbo room is the main draw for me!

Not that anyone knows who I am since I never post here, but I'll be at MGC and will at least stop in and say hi. I probably should have done that in previous years, but I usually end up hanging out with the people I know all weekend (Retroids/VGEvo room) and miss everything else.

I *may* make this. If someone confirms that a Big Lebowski pin will be there the chances of me going will double.

My PVM is currently dead (!) but I plan to fix it soon. If that happens I'll bring it, if not, I'll bring something lesser but still a tube.

speak for yourself.

I'm going to go to great lengths to make everyone think that a fight between you and I is going to break out for reals...

and up until the last moment you will be questioning whether or not I'm fucking around.

and you won't know until the moment after that moment. Your mind will be pondering "oh shit... did I troll too hard? Fight or flight? Fuuuuck" up until the split second I either fart and laugh or snap-kick your balls (and laugh).

which will it be?

time.

will.

tell.
It ain't trollin if it's truth broheim.

I'll bring you a buttplug and a neck brace for either scenario.

Other than the crazy mary encounter years back I dont think there has been much in the way of confrontations.

Yeah, CGE was really big in Vegas for a long time, it seems like it has petered out a bit in recent years though.

I think 2014 was decent show.
you have to remember show organizers do have lives out side of running the show,so planing is delayed because of that.

ive actually been to tylhe cge 2012 and 2014 show and I had an amazing time at both shows. I doubt they will have one this year since  know the planners have jobs and family to take care of. ill be saving up A LOT for 2016

Dan Iacovelli

yeah,from what I heard joe,sean and john are busy with museum and once they get the permanent museum running heard they want cge moved there.
the guys who ran it 2014, the retrogaming round up team, was saying that they might want to start their own like they did in 2010.
I know its a tough task to do, vgs'15 almost didn't get planned because we were getting too close.
since we lost heron point we had to look for a good location and one that suites our needs just glad we found one.
(if threw this topic off track sorry about that)

Quote from: Nulltard on 03/02/2015, 12:15 PMGreat call on the closet; I can assure yo that will come in handy.

Also, I wonder... would we be able to hang posters and such? maybe using sticky putty or whatever?  I'd love to put some flyers, posters, and misc shit in poster frames to plaster the walls in shit to look at
I am clue free.  I just hang the banner outside of the room.  Mayhaps we can ask the hotel ladies where to put the posters?

DUBBLE POSTT-

Curious, do you guys think we should leave 1/2 or a full table in the room for Chop5 or Turbokon to do mods/fixes/crafting/stamp booking?  I think we tried that last year, but didn't leave a whole lot of space for them.

Then we'd never see Chop or Turbokon.  I'd vote for more space for them to work their magic so we can chit-chat with them.

We'll have to find out where Chop5 will be located for most of the weekend.  There's a chance he might be helping out at Cdamm's Windy Game Booth like he did at VGS.  If that's the case, then perhaps we'll just have a 1/2 table set for turbokon or others to tinker around with stuff.

Also, are there any PCFXers that cannot make it interested in doing a live skype cam/chat thing from TurboFest?  We had one up at MGC last year and it was fairly entertaining.  Will have to remember a decent mic/speaker system for my tablet.

Any other ideas ya chummers?

Note, we're now looking at about 1 or maybe 2 systems in need for TurboFest.  We can make do with what we have now, but I'm looking to get a final count by April 3rd.  If any of you guys want to bring your systems and games (maybe a CRT 20" or smaller too?) to share with the masses, please let me know soon!!
