California Extreme Arcade Show Approaches
JM writes "The 8th annual California Extreme arcade game show is this Saturday & Sunday, August 7-8, at the San Jose Convention Center, Parkside Hall. Having been to California Extreme [not to be confused with Classic Gaming Expo, being held in San Jose on the 21st and 22nd of August] once before, I can tell you this is a 'can't miss' event for the fan of classic arcade and pinball machines. For one weekend each year, a massive collection of rare and classic arcade and pinball machines are together in one place, all set to free play, including never before seen prototype games, rare laserdisc games, plus some additional surprises, I'm sure. This year will be the CE premiere of Greg Maletic's documentary, 'The Future of Pinball', about Williams' ultimately ill-fated Pinball 2000 machines, as well as some great speakers and events, including an Atari panel with Ed Logg and others." Any arcade show with a playable Akka Arrh is good by us.
Take her to the convention. If she hasn't changed her phone number come Monday, then you've found yourself marriage material there.
