"This is a retro gamer's dream come true! There must have been millions of games for sale from vendors all over New England and beyond. There was tons of other related merchandise as well. The volunteer staff was great, very welcoming, and friendly. The setup was very well done and allowed for walking traffic to flow freely. The only disappointment was when I had to leave and come back home!"

Scott Brown

"I have been going since the first started. I have a great time every year the people are nice and gamers from all over have a fun time together I feel bad for people who can't go its so fun!"
