Oh man, two posts in a row for LPGE? You're reading that right, they're making the most interactive of merchandise, a brand new game for the Nintendo NES using all new parts. There will only be 300 copies made ever and they will only be available for sale at the show. Even the cart shells are special, two new colors that will never be used again!
A top down RPG where you play as a volunteer at the Expo, Convention Quest was designed and produced by The 6502 Collective, a joint effort of Retrotainment Games and Sole Goose Productions. Walk around an 8-bit version of the show and interact with NPCs both in the game and real life! It's a full CIB release that will be completely protected thanks to our sponsor RetroProtection.com, this game is completely certified as #8BitLegit. Lots of links to follow!

Made possible by GameStop and powered by the Retro World Series, Alamo Drafthouse Cinema, and GC Pro, it's an event thirty years in the making. A screening of the film, a panel and autograph session with cast and crew, and a three day long tournament to find the nation's best Nintendo player, it's going to be true video armagadeon at this year's Let's Play Gaming Expo.
They'll be having qualifiers on Friday and Saturday and the top scorers will make their way into the final three rounds on Sunday. They just announced the games that will be played, but the order won't be known until the event starts and they're only announcing the games ahead of each round. It's a mix of genres on the NES, SNES, and GameBoy, who will have the highest score when the digital dust hits the ground?
The games that will played in the tournament are listed below:
