Hey everyone,
After a lot of work I'm proud to anounce that the 15th of january 2012 there will be a big Retro Gaming Convention in "Den Draai" in Deurne.
This convention in the south of the Netherlands is only a short ride from most parts of Holland and Belgium!
So after all the conventions in the north of Holland, there will finally be a convention in the south!
At the convention traders, resellers and collectors will display, trade and sell their retro games.
From MSX to Atari and Playstation 2 to Gamecube, anything you'd want will be there.
With more then 150 tables of gaming goodness and an arcade event this will be a convention you don't want to miss!
The arcade event will consist of a Super Street Fighter IV contest and an Arcade Highscore Battle!
The information
- Location: Den Draai, Blasiusstraat 2, 5754 AV, Deurne (Zijlberg)
- Time: 10.00 - 16.00
- Entrance fee: 2 euro (kids below 12 are free with a supporting adult)

I couldn't make it, but a lot of fellow countrymen from the great Dutch Nozomi forum did. (yeah, yeah, I know that there is not much love for candy cabs here. It's a shame, but I must say that the guys on the 'opposite site' of the arcade scene are much more tolerant than most guys here :-[ )
anyway, here is a link to some pics. Psykick and Pascal are on some of them. http://forum.nozomi.nl/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3504&start=75
