Not forgetting 80s favourites like NES, Sega Master System, PC Engine, Vectrex and Colecovision and the pioneers of console gaming from the 70s such as the Atari 2600. Fans of handheld gaming won't be disappointed either!
From the Classics to Japanese machines (Candys) through to Pinballs. They're all set at Replay Expo and they're all set to free play!The Replay coin-op arcade is being provided thanks to the generous support of private collectors as well as leading communities.
At Replay we revisit the 90s with 486/P1-based DOS Machines and Acorn Archimedes/RISC PCs, with the 16-bit Amiga & Atari STs representing the late 80s. For veteran gamers, REPLAY Expo 2011 offers 8-bit machines like the C64, ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC, BBC Micro, Electron, MSX and Atari XL/XE. We even find space for rarities like the Acorn Atom, Vic 20, ZX81, Dragon 32 & Oric.
Competitions
We're will be running tournaments throughout both days of Replay Expo 2011, building up to grand finals on both evenings. The tournaments will span everything from VS Fighting, Shoot-em-ups and Retro Classics to LAN gaming (FFAs) and Multiplayer.
