Hi everyone,
Next month on Saturday the 26th of October there will be a huge retro event in The Netherlands: RetroEvent
What's happening there?
- A meetup of a lot of homebrew developers for various platforms, ranging from Atari VCS, Sinclair ZX Spectrum to Philips Videopac and ... Atari Lynx.
- Vendors from The Netherlands, Germany, Austria and the UK
- Special guests, such as Jeroen Tel and Boys without Brains
- A Retro machine museum
There are going to be 3 large halls with the vendors, homebrew heroes and the museum.
The event is held in Elst in The Netherlands, which is very close to Nijmegen, which again is very close to Oberhausen, Germany (as a reference) and it is also very doable from Belgium.
I really think this is going to be a great event, organized by Martijn Wenting of Revival Studios fame.
My aim is to get as many Atari Lynx developers there as well. If more than one (I'll be there) is going to show up, we can organize a meetup or something to learn, celebrate and whatever.
Der Luchs is trying to be there, and I hope that more German Lynx devs and fans (108Stars, Sage, Matashen, Mathias, Bernd, GroovyBee, ...) will be able to make it. If you were ever able to go to JagFest in Bochum, this is only a short hour away from the Bochum location.
So, please check if you can make it to this event. It should be really, really good fun. Check out the website yourself: http://www.retroevent.org.
If you have any questions, comments or suggestions, go right ahead.
Alex
