First stop at PaxEast was the @atari.com booth for the exclusive shirt and Atari 50 vinyl soundtrack. Tempted by that Bubsy shirt, lol.

One of the better yard sale days for us, got everything below for $126, both PSPs had ac adaptors and work great. Some nice 3DS games, SNES mini, and stack of Xbox and Wii games including steel books and a CE. A lot of fun to be had with these goodies, the collection is looking very solid!

Visited a nice little retro game shop in Billerica, MA called Boom Boom Games. Games as far back as the 2600 although some of the pricing may be out of whack. The gray box Canyon Bomber goes for $25 without the huge cutout and on Ebay for example. Good selection of gaming magazines and Amiibo.

Went to the local used book store and grabbed a bunch of Conan and S&S books including a couple Thongor the Barbarian books signed by Lin Carter. Thongor was the original hero Marvel went after before “settling” with licensing Conan back in the 70’s. Carter also “finished” some REH Conan stories.

The worlds newest home use pinball machine just went live on Kickstarter. $1000 80% scale Alice in Wonderland pinball machine built for home use (and not commercial use). Could be a game changer.

Got to meet the great Roy Thomas at Northeast Comics Con over the weekend, had him sign a bunch of Conan stuff including my Savage Swords of Conan #1 #conan

If you love Atari (I had a 2600 back in 1980) you should join the Atari Club discord. Besides all the great Atari news and discussion they have an old school BBS style multiplayer online text game based on a lot of Atari properties called Cartridge Wars. Join and have fun!

Amazing letter from the July 1980 issue of Mediascene Prevue #41 regarding Empire Strikes Back spoilers. “The mere thought that Luke Skywalker gets maimed… makes fans cringe. We know these to be completely untrue, Star Wars is intended primarily for children…”
