Eurocade 2016!
« on: May 17, 2016, 08:19:02 AM »
As you have may noticed Eurocade 2016 is happening.


EUROCADE 2016

10. September 2016 in Oldenburg (Oldg.) Germany


Yes, ladies and gentleman it is taking place in Germany this year! We have a wonderful museum of old homecomputers in our town (OCM) that is also the home of our little arcaderoom. "We" is a little group of arcade- and pinball-freaks that decided to have an own arcade (that even opens to public once a month) a few years ago. After hearing that the former Eurocade crew will take off a year we decided to jump in and organize a meeting ourselfs. So let's get your cabs ready, book your flights, hire your trucks and hit the road to meet us and have the best party of the year in Oldenburg!

I guess I don't have to explain to much about the spirit Eurocade but to those who haven't been there before here is the idea: Eurocade in the first place is an arcade collectors meeting. The special thing is that the collectors bring in the machines for the weekend ... we have a bunch of cabs already in our gameroom but it is highly recommended and welcome to toss in another 20 cabinets at least.

It's not mandatory to bring a cab though. Many have to take a plane to come and most cabs don't fit the hand baggage containers in the planes properly. ;) So please feel free to appoint to our little gathering even if cab transport is not possible.

Eurocade is a closed event. This means that you have to have an appointment to be part of the fun. Just drop me a pm and I will add your name to the list of cool people here in this thread. If you bring a machine please report that too ... if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask!! There will be a little entry fee that includes the dinner at saturday night. It will be 20,- Euros. For those who are interested in the computer exhibition: it will be open from 14:00 till 18:00 on saturday for Eurocade visitors too!

PS: Never mind the pinballs ;) they are just there to fill up space ...

sounds great. as of now i don't have any school appointments that will keep me from coming, so i guess it's time to show up again after bening absent the last couple of years. and since i now have a "walk-in-gameroom" i can also easily bring a cab, most likely missile command.

so count me in!!!

p.s.: hope that our danish dude shows up as well :)
all i need is ... PONG - and a select few others: TOUCH ME, DRAGON'S LAIR, JOUST, ROBOTRON, MR DO, SAN FRANCISCO RUSH THE ROCK!!!

I'll be there too. I can bring DK as this is the only cab that can come downstairs in one piece.

I'm not quite sure if I am already part of such a plan but maybe you arranged something with the other guys ... ;)


Updated the list and looking forward to burn the place down with you guys :)

Cooool! Best motivation to get my Defender up and running again. There have to be those devastating highscores right from the start  :P
