Retro Fusion has a little history.
Back in December 2005, The Retro Ball event was held in The Wardens cricket club in Kenilworth. Check out some pics in the Gallery area of the site. The event boasted over 15 pinball tables, 20 arcade cabinets and 30 Pachinkos. The event was graced by the likes of Archer Maclean, Philip and Andrew Oliver, David Whittaker and Jon Hare. Nearly 200 guests attended and £1k was raised for Cancer Research.
In September 2006, Retro Fusion::Weekend of Gaming hit the same venue again - allbeit in "Lite" version. Archer Maclean and Philip Oliver attended over the weekend along with 80 or so guests.
Fusion '08 has a new venue - Leamington Rugby footbal club. The capacity of the venue is 130 and tickets are now on sale ( All ticket sale money, bar venue costs, will go to the Everyman charity).
The weekend promises to be a gaming bonanza with arcade cabinets, networked XBOX 360's, pinball machines, a plethora of 'old' systems and games and a few retro celebrities to boot.
And when is this gonna happen - the 19th and 20th July 2008, that's when. Doors will be open:
Saturday 19th - 11:00am to 12 midnight
Sunday 20th - 11:00am to 5pm
