Albert Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 AtariAge and Digital Press are proud to announce Retro Rumble, a joint venture aimed at joining retrogaming communities in a little spirited competition as well as co-op play. Retro Rumble will debut in Las Vegas at the Classic Gaming Expo 2010 on July 31st. The AtariAge and Digital Press exhibit areas will be mirror images with plenty of the great products you'd expect, but between the two booths will be a gaming area where various tournaments and challenges will be hosted throughout the 2-day event. Are you the king of the road in Indy 500? Can you fend off the competition in a round robin Warlords tournament? Are you a better Mario in Mario Bros? Prepare to test your skills in an unforgettable union of gaming communities. Watch all THREE sites for more info and hints of what's to come: AtariAge, Digital Press, and Classic Gaming Expo in the days that lead up to the event. Naturally, we'll see YOU there!

Albert Posted February 6, 2010 Author Share Posted February 6, 2010 I'm looking forward to attending this year's show, as both an exhibitor and as a classic gaming enthusiast! It's been a long time since I've been to CGE and I know everyone's going to have a blast. Joe and I will be planning lots of fun activities, and I have plans for some great games releases and demos for the show. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Iacovelli Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 it will really be cool to see AA at CGE after a so long of hiatus. maybe we can work out to have copies of my 2600 games at CGE. does this also mean the feud between AA and DP has finally come to an end.

4ever2600 Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 This has been a long time coming. As both long time fan and supporter of both Digital Press and Atari Age, I'm glad to see the two come together again. The Classic gaming community should be ONE big community, not two or more divided. I've never missed a CGE yet, and I do miss the days of EVERYONE together under one roof. This IS going to be a great year for classic gaming and classic gamers. I do thank everyone who has been a part of bringing this together.

I've added you to the list of AtariAge members attending here. I plan on using Medieval Mayhem for an Atari 2600 "Warlords" tournament, since it's a fair bit more evolved than Atari's take on the arcade game. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+SpiceWare Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 (edited) I plan on using Medieval Mayhem for an Atari 2600 "Warlords" tournament This definitely turned my "seriously thinking about it" into "I'll be there".

Great, we'll have a volunteer to run the Medieval Mayhem tournament! I'll add your name to the list of AtariAge members in the above thread. Am I not looking at the right place? I don't see anything about the hours, just that it's Saturday and Sunday. http://cgexpo.com/schedule.htm - I'm not sure this is accurate for this year's show yet. I know some of the other pages on the site are stalwarts from the last show. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
