Remember kids....you can't spell C-R-A-S-H without Bill Gates!

Excuse me...the problem putting the DS on a Wii is that the DS is a touch screen...you can't do that using motion controllers!

Since no one has posted the promo....here it is... The 2008 Midwest Gaming Classic is returning to the Olympia Resort & Conference Center in Oconomowoc, WI. The Olympia provides the Midwest Gaming Classic with over 20,000 square feet of space, and provides attendees with great, affordable rooms with many amenities on site! The Olympia is located 25 miles west of Milwaukee, WI on Hwy 67. Rooms have high speed internet access and are available at a discount for our event at $92 per night. For those interested, the resort also features indoor and outdoor pools, two restaurants, two lounges, an arcade, a 18 hole golf course, and indoor tennis courts. Event Dates: * Saturday, March 29, 2008 - 10:00am to 8:00pm * Sunday, March 30, 2008 - 10:00am to 5:00pm Tickets: $10.00 (Adult Single-Day), $20.00 (Adult Two-Day), FREE (12 and under accompanied by adult) Over the past six years, the Midwest Gaming Classic has grown into a global event! Although the event is held in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, we have drawn people from all over the United States and World! The first event associated with the Midwest Gaming Classic was Atari Jaguar Festival 2K1: Beyond Tempest or "Jagfest" as the event is known amongst enthusiasts was the first event held by the current Midwest Gaming Classic Organizers. This event, held in 2001 to celebrate the Atari Jaguar home video game console planted the seed that grew into the Midwest Gaming Classic! Almost exactly one year after Jagfest, the Midwest Classic was born! The Midwest Classic combined all forms of electronic gaming, and had many huge surprises for attendees that included two newly released Atari 2600 games and a special event-only Dreamcast demo disc. The Midwest Classic returned in 2003 with a new location and more of everything! The pinball part of the show grew by leaps and bounds and attendees were able to take on a variety of pinball machines. To top it all off, a full-sized arcade machine was given away to a lucky event attendee! The 2004 Midwest Gaming Classic was the fourth electronic gaming event held in Milwaukee, Wisconsin by the same group of organizers. After taking a one year hiatus, the Midwest Gaming Classic returned in 2006 with a huge turnout of new sponsors and vendors to support the show. This year the show was moved up to March due to how many activites were going on in June 2007 in hopes to increase turnout and participation. Book your hotel stay at the Olympia Resort for a special event price of $92.00 per night! Make sure to mention you are attending the Midwest Gaming Classic to receive the reduced rate.

The arcade version of Congo Bongo was fine. Every home version however was botched. Sega just dropped the ball big time with it. I couldn't understand why they didn't program all four screens and only programmed TWO.

I am going, reserved my room this week...things coming up quicker than you'd think.

Wouldn't had been so bad if they didn't orphan all the folks who have a Gamecube.

There are seven endings to the game...one involves killing Dave beforehand, a couple involve the meteor police, a couple involve the book deal, and a couple involve sending the meteor into space. Microwave water from the pool for another deathtrap.

Go to a used game shop...not the chain stores, but the mom and pop variety, you'll probably find someone with a 2600 to do a test with.

When do we get the review of the other game?

They didn't include the Atari 2600 Keyboard? Bah, list is crap. Basic programming on the 2600.

Eight megs are something like $80. Probably by Thanksgiving you'll be seeing these 16 megs at $80

you would have to break the label at two locations to unscrew the case....it's easier to open an activision cart than an atari one.

According to Wikipedia, nope there hasn't been a home port.

And here's the Illinois Pinball Show --

I think you can determine if its any fun by watching the gameplay...after watching the gameplay it's too sickening to be any fun.

Really, what's so "fun" about this game? The fact that you can become a virtual sadistic mass murderer that you'd be executed for in real life? That's not my idea of a "fun" game. This title should had kept its AO rating.

Really Nintendo could had still released games for the Cube...certainly a lot of people have had no chance to buy the Wii for the entire year. A lot of the early Wii games were made for the Cube originally but had the motion controller stuff tacked onto it.

That would be it...it would have a 4th edition circle in the corner.

Found for sale in Linens N Things...another Pac-Man joystick, this one having the five games from the original 1st Pac-Man stick combined with the games from the 3rd Pac-Man stick. As if we needed another one with the same games in it...

*BUMP* It's this weekend!!!

It would be considered spam if he was advertizing a store, but we never got the name of the store in the first place. The cursing and stuff was outta line.

R-Type for the C-64. Boss won't take damage and you're practically stuck at the first level.

Springfield, IL still has an Aladdin's Castle at White Oaks Mall.
