Visit ClassicVGM's website for photos and 
video footage of day 1 of the tournament.

It has been a blast so far!

Man, this look's like a lot of fun. Remind's me of some of the arcade's I went to back in the late 80's and early to mid 90's.

I think I saw a Buggy Boy cabinet and maybe an Outrun cabinet next to it on the video there. Very cool.

It was a lot of fun! We have a lot of video to convert, so keep your eyes on our website for more updates.

Update: We filmed the Classic Video Game Museum during days 2 and 3 of the tournament. We show every single coin-op on the floor. The film will appear in multiple parts since it is quite large. The first half is already on our official Funspot page; check it out!

Ah man, this brings back so many memories.
I loved playing Qix back home when it came out for the arcade.  

As you already know I looooooooooooove arcade games, and even though I've played them for nearly all my live thanks to growing up in a cafe that always had a coin-up, there are a lot of games in here that I've never seen, let alone play.

That first one looking like Galaga for instance. Named Alien something...
Looks great.
I wish we had more compilations of these kinds of games. I have nearly all of the ones that were released since the 32-bit era and beyond, but still there are so many classics that never got released in the home.

Perhaps I should take a good look at Microsoft's GameRoom and see if these will pop up in there.

Off to watch the rest of the videos.

Funspot is one heck of a place to visit, Meppi!  I'd love to take you there for a day if you ever decide to visit America. My wife and I get lost in there every time we visit.

More video footage of day 3, etc., will be going up shortly. There is a lot of footage to view, edit, and finalize. We have tour footage that was interrupted by gamers asking us what we were about and why we were filming, so those parts have to be edited out since we didn't get their permission to leave them in the footage.

We also have quite a few photos from the tournament and Classic Video Game Museum that need to be processed and uploaded. Busy, busy!

I also want to add that it took us three days to film the entire third floor because it was so busy. Some aisles were so crammed packed with gamers you couldn't even move!
