Man, that mechanical pong machine is AWESOME, what a crazy juxtaposition!
That's a piece of art, as far as I'm concerned!

No one talks to Vinny that way! Also, Dave can make anything look cool.

Love the broken Avatar.
 
Great coverage, seems like an interesting tradeshow.
 
EDIT: That LED guy sounded like a serious nerd, he had the perfect "puberty voice breaking" kind of voice. Love it.

Hi-larious! 
  
"I'm having the time of my life, here at the show" cutscene "Hey, man. Free peanuts!"  
 
"Can I stick my hands in here? Will I get syphilis ?"  
 
"Whoaaaa.....! Swear... not get crazy!" 
 
"We're here in Santa Clara, where the "gravity" is extra strong." 
 
I really want one of these in Raleigh! That would rock! I also want to see the NBA Jam machine.

You can tell it's a real arcade experience because of the broken avatar standing in the middle of the room.

Part of me wants to bash the pinball lights as a waste of time and money.  A much larger part of me thinks its pretty cool to put some time and love into old classics like that even if 99% of ppl could care less.

Awesome. You know when you bring a truck and the company check book to an arcade convention, something is getting bought.

Showing with a pocket full of cash at California extreme is the biggest mistake one can make.

If someone says that they don't want to be filmed, doesn't that mean that you can't show them at all?  Especially on the intermesh?

I like that organizer's use of the word "video":
 
"We had a pinball tournament and a video tournament."
 
That's an old-school game player.
