Dan Iacovelli #1 Posted January 29, 2003 JAGFEST 2003 - THRIVING IN THE JUNGLE For 2003 Jaguar fans have agreed to hold multiple JagFest events nationwide to allow other fans the opportunity to attend during this historic tenth anniversary of the release of the Jaguar by Atari Corporation. JagFest 2003 "Thriving in the Jungle" will demonstrate the Jaguar is still alive and kicking with numerous hobby game efforts underway nearly a decade after the Jaguar's first release. Each event will feature demos of lost and upcoming games, as well as one or more tournaments with prizes for some of the best Jaguar games out there. At this time, the following JagFest events have been established: JagFest @ MWC --------------------- When: June 7, 2003 Where: Milwaukee, WI Lead Organizers: Dan Iacovelli JagFest @ VGS --------------------- When: July 12, 2003 Where: Lombard, IL Lead Organizers: Dan Iacovelli JagFest @ CGE --------------------- When: August 9-10, 2003 Where: Las Vegas, NV Lead Organizers: Carl Forhan and Scott Walters There's no way these few organizers can accomplish a successful event alone. We need fans to commit to attend to whichever shows they can. We need equipment, unreleased games, demos of upcoming games, tournament prizes, flyers, web pages, and more. If you're interested in organizing a JagFest event in your region, or would like to assist with other established events, please send a blank email to [email protected] . Long live the Jaguar!

Atariman #3 Posted January 29, 2003 Hey, I've been kinda interested in Jagfest, but I'm not sure what it's all about. What goes on? what happens at Jagfest? I've (obviously) never been to one and wouldn't mind attending the one in Illinois. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Songbird #4 Posted January 29, 2003 There should be some news on the individual events posted in the coming weeks, but in general, each event features multiple Atari Jaguars along with some tournaments, demos of unreleased and upcoming games, prototype hardware, and just all around a lot of fun and camaradarie among Atari fans. Some past JagFests have also included other related systems, such as the Lynx and NUON DVD players. It's a blast! I encourage all Atari fans to take advantage of one or more JagFests this year!

Atari_Owl #10 Posted February 2, 2003 This just keeps getting better Can this now really be *SEVEN* fests in one year? (Lets hope Euro JagFest happens this year) Cheers Guys Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thunderbird #11 Posted February 2, 2003 This just keeps getting better Can this now really be *SEVEN* fests in one year? (Lets hope Euro JagFest happens this year) Cheers Guys Make that EIGHT! I just hosted "JagFest Elite" in my house last night. It was a lot of fun. It was the first "Invitation Only" Jagfest in the world!" There was networked BattleSphere and plenty of VLM and of course some great beer! I'm going to have one every month or so... I think if more people can host these things we can get the total up in the HUNDREDS! Then the word "JAGFEST" will REALLY mean something!!!!!!!!!
