It is always great to get recognition from BIG gaming companies. But wait, that wasn’t all, the display pieces in the console section were yet again getting a lot of attention, especially Shane Battye’s very exotic development kits and prototype systems. The Australian Pinball Museum display exhibit was a new addition in the pinball section which proved popular due to never before seen items, like the 10 metre bill of material print out from the Fish Tales pinball machine (it cost just under US$1800.00). The Classic Gaming area was busy with many attendees coming in and enjoying everything that was on offer from classic gaming systems, vintage handhelds, to old school arcade and pinball machines. Wow, PAX Aus 2019 was an absolute blast! What a great 3 days.
