+cvga Posted September 6, 2004 Author Share Posted September 6, 2004 Bummer! Was anything released for any other systems other than Bristles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayhem Posted September 6, 2004 Share Posted September 6, 2004 There was a couple of Sega CD games, something for the Saturn, NWCGE did a Coke Wins repro sale (along with mini Coke cans!)... there were a couple more releases I think, but yeah it was quite small compared to previous years.

Gateway Posted September 6, 2004 Share Posted September 6, 2004 Does anyone know the titles of the 2600 games released this year at CGE? I couldn't make it this year but would like to see what I missed out on. Thanks! Packrat offered boxed versions of: Skeleton+, This Planet Sucks, Jammed, and Okie Dokie. IIRC, you can order the boxes separately, if you already own the game cart. They also had boxed Backfire, that was first introduced at Midwest Classic. CGE Services were demonstrating Targ, and I think Wings, though I don't remember seeing it. And yes, NWCGE services had Coke Wins! with metallic label and a free Coke( 8 oz. ) I got me a copy! Too cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godzilla Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 Thats sweet, I'd love to have one :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too cool! ============================= "Thats sweet, I'd love to have one" I'm not sure if we are going to make anymore. We are out of cart making supplies at the moment. I do offer NTSC version of 7800 Klax with Foil labels now along with 7800 protos of Pit-Fighter (very unfinished prototype.. really for hardcore collectors only). The foil labels and the clear case carts look cool though. I was pleasantly surprised by the results. We plan to have something maybe for Christmas or the next NWCGE meet. -Lee See you there next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kenwood Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 Those "Coke Wins' carts look great. I'd love to see more stuff like this in the AtariAge Store Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad2600 Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 I love the looks of those Coke Wins carts. Nice foil labels! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kisrael Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 At the risk of getting into unpleasant politics...is the lack of games more to do with Las Vegas being a more popular spot, or is it because a lot of the new work is done thru AA which doesn't seem to like CGE very much?

At work, I'm filtered at what I can view on the net, so I can't access many of the games sites. I can't even get into the AA store here. Just forems.

I don't think the lack of game shas anything to do with CGE being in Sna Jose or the fact that AA doesn't want to attend. Most definitely, CGE Services has some other games they may release. A couple come to mind. It is too bad that AA didn't show up. On the other hand, I think PackRat did very well becuse they were the only homebrewer distributer there. As I understand they may have a few suprises in the future as a direct result of the show attendance. Also, 4 Jays was there as was 2600.com. In fact Joe from 2600.com came over to the NWCGE booth to buy stuff off us for his bussiness. He asked why we sell things so cheaply. We shrugged our shoulders. We like to think that folks in the PacNW are a bit more "gamer friendly". Maybe are brains are soaked fomr the rain, we don't know any better :wink: One of my complaints about the show this year was the lack of display for prototypes and new games in development for folks to try. DP and NWCGE had protos to play, but only at limited intervals and they weren't always up. I suggested that for next year we have a sperate area setup with nothing but protos and new games in development for folks to try out. All in all, there were plenty of things to buy and sell. I personally enjoyed it, especially the keynote speakers. Wozniak was the best! -Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gulag picture radio Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 Sorry, I can't seem to find where to pick up one of the rad Coke Wins carts? I'd also potentialy be interested in boxes for some of the Packrat homebrews I've picked up over time. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PackratVG Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 As far as I know, Lee only made a limited run of the Coke Wins carts. Maybe he'll make more later . They really are very cool. As for the boxes for our homebrews, we sold out at the show and will have more in stock soon. I'm hoping to have them up on the site in a few days. Thanks!

H1HummerAlpha Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 OMG Lee, Please do let us know when more comes avail. Put us down for 2. Beautiful. One to play and one to display!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godzilla Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 let us know when the boxes are back, please! thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubersaurus Posted September 15, 2004 Share Posted September 15, 2004 You know, I saw the booth with coke wins but I didn't see any of those Pit Fighter carts...I probably woulda picked one up for the hell of it. I know CGE services or whatever booth that was, was selling the games from the last CGE, but they still had a bunch left at the end of the show. Stonix was being sold at the DP booth, along with that intv tetris clone (in much smaller quantities), though that's not 2600, obviously.

PackratVG Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 @Godzilla We finally have the boxes available to purchase online. Check out our main page for more information: www.packratvg.com We delayed their release because we wanted to experiment with a few other printing methods. We ended up going back to the method that we used for the boxes that we released at CGE. Finally these homebrews have the packaging that they deserve.

DEBRO Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 We finally have the boxes available to purchase online. Check out our main page for more information: www.packratvg.com The boxes look good. The Okie Dokie box shows 1 video game but would the 30 puzzle variations count as 30 games? The games have the same principle but the different variations make for different puzzles. Sort of like Space Invaders has 112 different variations of the same game.

PackratVG Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 Thanks for your kind words. I hadn't thought about the different variations. That could be a modification for our next run of Okie Dokie boxes. Thanks, Jarett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hm, IMO that's a bit too much creativity here. Or do you think Jammed has 600 games inside? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC once you choose your game selection/variation it cycles through game boards for this selection as you complete them. If that's the case then I'd count each variation as a game. Again, I'm using Space Invaders as a reference here...same game but 112 game variations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MegaManFan Posted December 21, 2004 Share Posted December 21, 2004 Saturn? Was it a homebrew or an unreleased game? Tempest I believe the author of it told me it was a homebrew, "work in progress," unfinished game. Truthfully I bought it first thing that morning because supplies were so limited (he only had 20) and haven't done anything with it since, because at the time I didn't have an import enabler or other such device. I should check it out now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
