+rdemming Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Seems that the €-JagFest is on the 3rd of November 2012 at the usual place in Kaarts. Strangely nobody did an announcement on AtariAge while it is only less than 3 weeks away. Robert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they only decided on the date and location quite recently, they were looking at possibilities for a different venue later in the year but that wasn't possible.

OBO Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 Aataari Kaarts you mean ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+rdemming Posted October 15, 2012 Author Share Posted October 15, 2012 Atari Kaarts? Lol, you do know Kaarts is German for Karts I meant of course in "Kaarst". My German geography is not so good The twitter message is from 5 October so the decision was indeed made quite recently. But now 10 days later I would have expected an announcement here.

The Atari Jaguar Europe Festival is an annual festival for all Atari Jaguar and Lynx fans, developers and retailers. Open-minded fans of other video game systems are welcome, of course. The „Atari Jaguar Europe Festival is a meeting of retro gaming fans from all over Europe. The focus of attention is Atari and all consoles of the cult lable. All of you who would like to play systems like the Jaguar, Lynx, VCS 2600, 5200, 7800 or on a trusty homecomputer of the 80s, this is the right place. Retro games, homebrew announcements / presentations, prototypes believed to be lost and demos of all kind can be experienced on the ejagfest. Developers from all over Europe regularly take the opportunity to present their new developments on the festival, and sometimes even have exclusive items for sale. Another highlight was the presentation of the only working “High-res Jaguar Virtual Reality Headset” in existence, which was shown for the first time in Europe on the ejagfest in the year 2007. Competitions such as “Club Drive” or “Kasumi Ninja” make sure everyone has a fun time. Next to these fun competitions, the official European championship in “Checkered Flag” for the Lynx is taking place each year. To make the event complete there are retro game retailers to offer Jaguar/Lynx titles and a variety of other retro games and systems. Highlights of this year: 16 32 bit Systems: Nick Harlow, offers used and new games for different Atari Systems. Matthias Domin: Shows his new Jaguar game „Impulse X“. Hopefully ready and for sale. Atari Shop NL: Sells Retro-Games and Goodies for different systems. Mr.Coke shows some Atari ST Demos: For example the „Yet Another 4KB Intro“, which was the winner of the Outline2012 Demo-Show in Oktober 2012. Further he shows some hand selected Demos / Intros on his Atari mashine and tells us something about the Atari Demo scene. Team Reboot Shows and hopefully also sells „Kobayashi Maru Final CD“ for Jaguar CD.

sh3-rg Posted October 29, 2012 Share Posted October 29, 2012 Douglas Little of Black Scorpion Software has also kindly allowed Livewire to be demonstrated at this year's ejagfest - serious Jaguar fans shouldn't need any more convincing to attend this one! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
