Classic Gaming and Computing Museum
The Classic Gaming and Computer Museum contains one of the largest collections of systems from the very early computer / tv systems all the way to modern systems such as the Xbox 360, Playstation 3 and Wii! Unlike most museums where you can just look but you cannot touch, this museum has almost every console listed available for you to check out and play! Will you remember what fun you had on the Colecovision when you were younger, or will you check out a system that you never got to play, like the Atari Jaguar? The Classic Gaming and Computing Museum allows you to do it all!
What Will Be There?
In 2012, the Midwest Gaming Classic Museum is being broken up into five distinct display rooms, with each room focused on a different era or different topic having to do with home console gaming. Other displays will be in the hallway of this unique "wing" of the show!
- Atari Jaguar Festival - The touring convention makes its latest stop at this year's Midwest Gaming Classic to celebrate Atari's final home console.
- Die-Hard Gamer Console Arcade - Covering many of the games and systems from the NES era all the way up to current classics for the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
- E2M Museum - Trace the very beginnings of gaming and computing in this wing dedicated to the earliest home consoles and computer systems, and see what made both gaming and computing explode into the phenomenon it is today!
- The Family Game Room - See and learn about games that are appropriate for the entire family to enjoy together, as well as how to tell if a game is right for your child!
- The Underdog Chamber - Explore the world of runner-up and never-had-a-chance consoles, and some of the amazing games that were made for them!
- The Versus Room - The room that is all about huge console network gaming and even bigger multiplayer headcounts!
The Most Comprehensive Display Today.. to Play!
The Classic Gaming and Computing Museum is perhaps the most comprehensive display of video game history assembled in the world, and almost everything in the museum displays is playable! This isn't a museum where you have to walk around and not touch anything, you get to see some of the most famous or infamous products for each of the systems presented.
Want to compete? This year, the video game tournaments have been moved into the Versus Room, so that you can take on others from around the world and prove your gaming skills! Whatever you do, don't miss the Classic Gaming and Computing Museum at the Midwest Gaming Classic!
