Replay Expo hosts first RetroCollect World Championships

RetroCollect, the Retro Gaming Collectors’ Community, will be out in force at Replay Expo 2011. Many Retro Collect staff members will be attending and they’ve organised some incredible retro gaming events.

For instance, unless you were in the USA in 1990 you may have missed out on a legendary piece of gaming history – the Nintendo World Championships, held using a special Nintendo World Championship cartridge. However Retro Collect is bringing this excitement to the UK for the first time at Replay Expo, in the RetroCollect World Championships 2011.

Retro Collect will be on the lookout over the weekend for the Replay Expo attendee who can rack up the highest accumulated score possible during a timed battle on Super Mario Bros., Rad Racer and Tetris.

There are some fantastic prizes and gaming memorabilia for the most impressive players. You’ve got a few weeks to go, so get out your Nintendo NES, get practising and get ready: we’re expecting nothing but your best!

Retro Collect will also be hosting other competitions (to be announced soon!) and showcasing their website retrocollect.com.
