Didn't even know this existed until I saw a blurb about it in a magazine:

They have a pretty good list of charter members:

David Perry - Founder Shiny Entertainment; Founder GameConsultants.COM
Howard Phillips - Design Manager, Microsoft
Chris Melissinos - Chief Gaming Officer, Sun Microsystmes
Jamil Moledina - Executive Director, Game Developers Conference

Bill Kunkel (a.k.a. The Game Doctor) - Co-Founder, Electronic Games; Game Designer; College Professor
Tommy Tallarico - Co-producer Judgment Day and The Electric Playground; Founder of Video Games Live, Founder; President of the Game Audio Network Guild

List of Exhibitors so far:

Action Figure Factory
Chris Chandler
Electronic Gaming Monthly (Ziff Davis)
Free-Games.com
GameJobs.com
Games-To-Go
GameVideos.com (Ziff Davis)
Intellivision Productions
J2 Games
Penn State University - VideoGame Camp
RetroGaming
Rolenta Press
The OneUp Network (Ziff Davis)
The VideoGame Museum

and many more to be announced!

The East Coast doesn't get a lot of attention with the gaming industry, so this looks like it could be a pretty decent show. Anyone thinking of going? It would be cool if we could get a good CAG contingent to attend. And maybe Wombat could bring the CAGcast too!

I went last year with a few friends--it's kind of low-rent but a fun way to spend a few hours. Outside of Guitar Hero I don't recall anything current being showcased, but it was retro gaming nirvana. I could have walked out of there with every console and home computer ever made if I wanted to. (Only laziness prevented me from lugging an Atari 800 back to NYC.)

Don't expect anything even approaching the major exhibitions, but do expect the largest videogame garage sale you'll ever see in your life.

There were also homebrew games and some specialty items like the Generation NEX for sale.


EDIT: OK, having actually checked out the site now it looks like they're significantly expanding it this year. It was only two days last year and admission was free. So maybe it'll be a much bigger deal this year.
