2005 RetroBlast Giveaways Begin!

Archived from groups: alt.games.mame (More info?)

RetroBlast has just started up a new four-month long contest which
features some truly extraordinary prizes:

SlikStik Lighted Joystick Handles (4 pairs)
X-Arcade Trackball Controllers (5 controllers)
X-Arcade Midway Games Pack CD (50 CDs)

and to top it all off, a fantastic grand prize: your choice of a side-
by-side or head-to-head cocktail cabinet from Dream Arcades (a $699
value!)

And, as the saying goes, "that's not all!" because I'm going to be
having numerous surprise or "pop-up" contests for all sorts of gaming
goodies. It's going to be a fun four months!

Full details on the RetroBlast Front Page. Good luck!

What, and lose those endless message threads with RetroBlast in the
subject line? ;-)

If you miss those flamewars, you can always just visit BYOAC and watch
Randy Turner of GroovyGameGear rip me a new one after I review his
products...
