The Portland Retro Gaming Expo 2023 was a great event filled with classic games and generally nerdy stuff. It was a lot of fun, but retro events are important for helping preserve retro games, too.
“Sega had their own console?” That was a devastating comment I heard as I sat playing Sonic the Hedgehog 2 on a Sega Genesis Mini at the Portland Retro Gaming Expo this weekend. The Sonic games on Genesis were my favorites as a kid; one time, I played so much Sonic that I peed my pants. How could this person not know about Sega consoles? Thankfully, the person’s friend was more charitable than I would have been. He used it as a teaching opportunity and showed him the game he was playing.
One area was littered with older game consoles hooked up to TVs. I beelined for a Donkey Konga station, where I drummed along to Blink-182’s “All the Small Things.” As I was getting near the end of the song, a young kid who was definitely not alive when that song was written watched in awe, and I happily handed the controller to him so he could drum and clap to the song, too.
