TrekMD Posted August 10, 2023 Report Share Posted August 10, 2023 Is anyone going to PRGE this year? I already have everything set up to go.

CrossBow Posted August 10, 2023 Report Share Posted August 10, 2023 I cannot this year as the cost is just too much right now for me. That said, I will be there in spirit with all the different consoles that will be there and setup for folks to play the new games and enjoy.

Smell Dawg Posted August 10, 2023 Report Share Posted August 10, 2023 This is about as close to me as conventions could realistically get! If only it was just one week later - regulatory deadlines will prevent me from attending this year. socrates63, RickR and Justin 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RickR Posted August 10, 2023 Report Share Posted August 10, 2023 I'm very sorry to say that I'm once again going to miss it this year. My wife and I have a cruise booked that week, which is a good thing for us. socrates63, Smell Dawg and Justin 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check out the event's page: PRGE 2023 @TrekMD Will you be sure to take lots of pictures (and video too if possible!) to share with all of us stuck back here in South Florida and unable to make it to Portland in time for this great event?

TrekMD Posted August 11, 2023 Author Report Share Posted August 11, 2023 I always take tons of pictures, so that won't be an issue. 😉 I don't think I knew you're in South Florida also, @Justin.

CrossBow Posted August 11, 2023 Report Share Posted August 11, 2023 (edited) 15 minutes ago, Justin said: What's the story with this AV modded Atari 7800? I worked with Bob (PacManPlus) to get that done for Al. He supplied the special 3D printed case shell and I swapped everything into it with a UAV + mount board setup. He was showing Bob's games on it throughout the show. But that case is a one off special done for Al and AtariAge. I have a similar case shell with black bottom and red top with the Atari 7800 logo in the middle in black. It also has Bob's Kiloparsec BIOS installed as well. The one I have is my lab test unit. But the shell was designed with AV upgrades in place as it already has nicely centered holes for RCAs and the half moon hole for the s-video jacks I use.

I'm staying there this time around. Of all the nearby hotels, I think that's the best one. DegasElite, socrates63 and RickR 3 Quote 🖖 Going to the final frontier, gaming...
