LIVE the GAMES. .- . c11utc.m1..---.ai• .... mn1c Welcome to Classic Gaming Expo 2002! This year, we celebrate our fifth anniversary and this show is set to be our biggest event yet. We've been successful over the years in upholding our tradition and primary goal : to produce an expo celebrating the roots and history of video games that is run BY classic gamers , FOR classic gamers. This year we're celebrating numerous other anniversaries in addition to our own . The Magnavox Odyssey turns 30 this year. Atari was founded 30 years ago and their popular VCS console turns 25 as well. Finally, it was twenty years ago that GCE released their Vectrex system , and Coleco released their ColecoVision game console. That' s a lot to celebrate, and we hope you'll join us in having a great time in honoring these historic and important dates. In addition to all of these anniversaries, there are many other factors that will contribute to making this CGE a special experience for all involved, one of the largest of which is the presence of our Alumni guests. Each year they give up their time and money to come to the show, give talks about the old days, and meet up with their fans . Keep this in mind as you browse the exhibit hall. They're here to meet you as much as you are to meet them . Don 't be afraid to strike up a conversation , ask for an autograph (we gave you 2 pages in the program) , and let them know how much you appreciate their efforts. The CGE Museum is definitely one of the highlights of the show. What makes the museum so unique is that it is comprised of hundreds of items from various collectors , friends , and some of our distinguished guests. This year's exhibit will be our biggest yet! Expect to see incredible displays of Atari , lntellivision, and Vectrex items. Also , this year, we have expanded our handheld display and you can expect to see a bunch of Atari 8-bit computer rarities and "vaporware ". If you've ever planned to take pictures of the museum , this is the year to do it. We also have an incredible music line-up for your enjoyment this year. Seth and his band "8-bit Weapon " are joining us again . In addition , we'll have the wildly popular "Minibosses" doing their NES songs , DJ "Tony Fox NYC" will be belting out his classic game remixes , and George "The Fat Man " Sanger and "Team Fat" will be playing their classic lntellivision theme from Thin Ice along with a few of the hundred-something game tunes they've composed over the years . Add to all that the debut of Dragon's Lair 3-D , arcade and home console tournaments sponsored by Twin Galaxies. over 30 classic arcade games on free play including a rare Puppy Pong machine, a swap meet and auction . the soon-to-be infamous "Dig Dug Drop" , and some of the finest vendors on the planet. We're expecting this to be the biggest and best show yet and we hope this year 's expo will remain one of your fondest gaming memories in the years to come. Although we hold the titles of organizers, we're just another cog in the wheel in putting on this great show. Everybody here plays just as important a role as we do . Every vendor, volunteer, special guest, and attendee is responsible for making this show the success that it is . Every single person you see over the weekend has given something of themselves to make this expo happen . From our distinguished guests who have graciously donated their time and money to attend , to the sponsors and exhibitors who have backed us with financing and services , to the hundreds of attendees that are spending their vacations here in Las Vegas , YOU are the people responsible for making this show a success. As you wander around the expo , stop and look around and take a moment to realize that this is YOUR show and it's YOUR support that's making it happen . We'd like to thank all the people who have helped out with many of the menial tasks including show set-up and break-down, providing and setting up museum entries, and numerous other physical and mental tasks. An extra special thanks to those who went above and beyond the call of duty in helping to organize this event; namely, Tim Arnold , Dan Blitz, Walter Day, Steven Hertz, Debra Keller, Rik Morgan , Beth Mundo, Brian Mundo, Rob Mundo, Chris Neiman , Don Rogers, Chris Romero , Scott Stilphen , and anyone else whose name escapes us at this moment.

  • How Actors Establish Generative Platforms by Instituting Control Points: the U.S
    Paper to be presented at the DRUID Society Conference 2014, CBS, Copenhagen, June 16-18 How Actors Establish Generative Platforms By Instituting Control Points: The U.S. Video Game Industry Alexander Chekanov Esade Business School Business Network Dynamics [email protected] Joan Rodon Modol ESADE Business School Department of Information Systems, Research Group: Business [email protected] Abstract In our paper we examine how the proliferation and growth of a sector can be contingent on the set up of control points in a multi-platform industry through an historical overview of the U.S. home video game industry between 1976 and 1989. We address the critical issue on how do actors establish generative platforms by instituting a set of control points acceptable to others, providing evidence that an increased control can also feed extensive generativity. To achieve such purpose, we present an inductive study that illustrates how the U.S. home video game industry crashed in 1983, after the removal of architectural control points in the video games market, and how Nintendo introduced new architectural control points after the crash, describing the role of the control points in the recovery of the sector.
