Prototype Snes Cdrom is being showcased and the Gaming Historian Norm will be there.
Not me.
Not me. NJ.
I'll probably be there this year. I've lived in Portland for the last 13 years and have never gone. Im not a crowds kinda guy and dont buy alot of games these days but a friend of mine really wants to go and wants me to go so its a maybe for me :P
This show always seems like it's pretty neat I feel like a lot of cool stuff always shows up for auctions. Wish I could have gotten one of those Spot 32X repros awhile back when they did them.
I'll be sure to post some pictures this year as well. Don't think I'm going to do any tourneys (last year didn't do so hot in Puzzle Fighter), but I will for sure be going to the 8-bit guys speech and either Ben Heck or The Gaming Historian thing.
I'll be there! You guys that are going want to meet up for lunch or something?
nope

I'll finally be going to this as well - I always tend to miss these events but I'll be there starting Sat.
Heard from Aaron that Sarumaru will be attending, so FYI to those going. Shouldn't be hard to spot a Henshin Engine booth. ;)
Booth #536
I'm buying my ticket and will be around a while at least for today.
EDIT:
As a huge PCE fan with a couple games I've worked on being demoed, I walked away with a stack of Intellivision and Neo Geo games. :P
Sarumaru turned out to be as cool as people say, which was honestly a relief. :) Tried out Henshin Engine for the first time and it's much more satisfying than it appears in videos. The new miniboss in the latest stage was a nice surprise.

Wish I could have met up with you. Sadler and myself hung out by that booth for a good hour or two on Saturday chit chatting. Once again, we missed Aaron lol but at least I got the opportunity to meet with a few folks here. It was so unbelievable how many the vendors were this year in comparison to last year. I got a few pictures I can post of my fat arse and the Oregon Trail booth and of course kicking ass in RC Proam until some schmuck (no relation) beat out my top score by literally a few hundred points. Overall, a lot of fun and got a chance to meet with a few other youtube guys (8-bit guy, The gaming historian and Ben Heck) and will definitely make a trip there next year if my new job permits it.

Yeah, it was awesome getting to meet you guys! I *think* I saw Black Tiger at sarus booth Saturday and Sunday, but he seemed pretty engrossed in the game and I didn't introduce myself. I picked up some boxes from syphic, and a few misc other games. I also cornered Bob Mackey in a bar and drunkenly demanded more tg16 episodes. He was super cool and chatted with me and my buddy for an hour or so. Anyway, I had a great time! Hope to do it again next year! :D
