'EUROCADE 2O15' / Re: Eurocade 2015...the 5th......OldSkool ! :D
« on: July 10, 2015, 10:49:59 AM »
Hi all,

I couldn't find a direct contact on the eurocade page, but based on the discussions, the people behind the event should be in this thread.

So, we are Awesome Retro (www.awesomeretro.org) a non-profit organisation, backed by 80 volunteers, with the goal "RetroGaming for everyone!". This is achieved by collecting, repearing and maintaining old home computers and video game systems and bring them to schools, musea, events and festivals, where people can enjoy them hands on. Up to 2014 Awesome Retro has visited and supported 62 events in multiple countries with a total of 401.902 visitors.

We could bring one or two arcade machines, like Phoenix, which isn't on your list.  And we saw some discussing about bringing machines other than arcades, like an Apple ][, in case you need something, just let us know.

We also saw that the date was moved because of the location. If you run into any other problems or need a place to hold your awesome events in the future, we also run the AwesomeSpace (www.awesomespace.nl), located in the center of the Netherlands, Utrecht. In this 400m2 space, we have all the old gamesystems on display and ready to be played in a relaxed environment. The space is also equiped with studio-, enigeering- and event-areas to facilitate and unite the retrogaming community, like retrogamers, developers, demosceners, fixers, collectors, speedrunners, chiptuners, streamers, etc.

Let us know if you need some information. Or drop by the AwesomeSpace, you can check the agenda for opening hours, but we're open every wednesday evening.

Also, be sure to check/ask the awesome guys at the www.nozomi.nl forum or people running the TonTon club in Amsterdam or www.gamesencomputers.nl in Zwolle. They all have arcade systems and might join the fun.
