<br>
Atari Party is less than 5 weeks away! (12pm-5pm on Sat. July 30th)<br>
<br>
So far, 10 others are joining me in bringing video game and computer<br>
systems from their personal collections, for you all to enjoy!<br>
<br>
Thanks to them, you're likely to see:<br>
<br>
* a wide variety of Ataris:<br>
2600 (VCS), 5200 (SuperSystem), 7800 (ProSystem), Lynx (handheld),<br>
Jaguar ("Do the math!"), 8-bit and 16-bit computers, and even<br>
an Atari Portfolio handheld computer, a Video Music system,<br>
and a "Centipede" arcade cabinet!<br>
<br>
* a number of non-Ataris will be there, mostly running Atari games<br>
(published by Atarisoft, Tengen, Infogrames, etc.):<br>
Apple II, Nintendo NES and GameBoy Advance, Sega Genesis,<br>
Sony PlayStation and PS2, and modern Windows PC (running "Gauntlet")<br>
<br>
When you arrive at the show, you'll receive free raffle tickets to<br>
take part in the free prize give-away. You'll have the chance to win<br>
some amazing prizes:<br>
<br>
* Raspberry Pi 2 Model B<br>
* Nintendo Wii + games (gently used)<br>
* Edladdin "Super78" arcade controller (works with Ataris & friends,<br>
but also modern PCs & Macs, via a number of adapters available)<br>
* Books!<br>
* "Terrible Nerd" by Kevin Savetz (of ANTIC, the Atari 8-bit Podcast)<br>
* "Game Art - Art from 40 Video Games and Interviews with Their Creators"<br>
* "Python for Kids - A Playful Introduction to Programming"<br>
* "The Manga Guide to the Universe"<br>
* "Arduino Project Handbook - 25 Practical Projects to Get You Started"<br>
* "Learn to Program with Minecraft - Transform Your World with the<br>
Power of Python"<br>

* Nolan Bushnell, co-founder of Atari<br>
* Al Alcorn, Atari's first employee & designer of "Pong"<br>
* Chris Crawford, game designer & founder of the Game Developers Conference<br>
* ...and a dozen more!<br>
* T-shirts & tote-bags!<br>
* Some shirts & tote-bags from No Starch Press (publisher of most of the<br>
books being given away)<br>
* A "Classic Gaming Quarterly" shirt<br>
<br>
Plus, if you happen to own an Atari 8-bit computer, you might want a chance<br>
to win:<br>
<br>
* "Blaster" game cartridge<br>
* "MacRorie's R-Time 8 Replacement" realtime clock cartridge<br>
<br>
<br>
Finally, we've also got (or are getting) some books donated to the<br>
Yolo County Public Library!<br>
