Wow, just got back to MN early this morning after a fun but exhausting expo.
Not sure what attendance was like this year vs. last year, but I do know that
Sunday attendance was a big improvement over last year. And I stayed VERY busy
at the Songbird booth the entire time! It was rare that I had more than 5
minutes go by without someone wanting to try a Jag or Lynx game, see some
unreleased stuff, etc. People got to play Lynx Cybervirus, Eye of the Beholder,
and Relief Pitcher, while on the Jag side we did have Phaze Zero and a
prototype 'shareware' cart for demo.

Songbird customers got to pick up the new Songbird Jaguar games at great
prices, and I went through almost all the assorted Jaguar stock I brought with
me. Lynx sales were a little slower than I hoped, but the new games were still
well received and I even found some new customers for Ponx and Lexis! Not to
mention equipping a few former INTV and 5200 developers with low-cost Lynx
developer kits which was great fun... =^)

I didn't get much time to stop by other booths, but it is always great to chat
with Hasbro, Telegames, B&C, CGE staff, and the rest.

Thanks to everyone who made this another incredible event! I hope to see even
more people attend next year. Considering the exclusive game releases, great
deals on new and old merchandise, the chance to meet former and current game
developers, the swap meet, and the one-of-a-kind museum, I think there are
plenty of reasons to make CGE a 'must-go' event for classic/Atari gamers.

Sincerely,
