Meeting Natale ZACCARIA
« on: April 12, 2011, 04:16:04 PM »
A couple of weeks ago I had the opportunity to meet Natale Zaccaria, one of three Zaccaria Brothers I met him during an A.C.M.I meeting http://www.acmi.ws/ (Italian association of automatic machines manufacturers). He is very  nice and smiled when I told him some collectors consider him like a videogame history milesone :)... I hadn't the courage to ask him a photo together but I promise you next time I'll try :D

Yeah, definitely a picture at least, but maybe you can even ask him for an interview ??

Surely we have lots of questions for him (f.i. licensed/not so licensed games ;) ;))
and he probably has a lot of stories to tell about those days...?

Enada is an expo in Italy as pointed out by scr33n :)

I never worked for them, my dad almost did 18 years ago. I brought tons of stuff from the new company the founded and personaly from them.
The new company is 1 hour drive from my home.
