During Eth0:2010 Summer there will be a public, complete retrogaming experience. While eth0 focusses its event around hacking and security, there is enough room for slacking. One such place is the Eth0:2010 retrogaming experience, where all consoles and games from our past are present, as well as some new ones. You know; the nes, megadrive, 2600, pong consoles and more.

These ideas and plans contain contributions made by others and ourselves. The text in brackets indicates the need for the idea and the percentage it has been arranged. Its a rough estimate, but it gives an indication. Please adjust status and needs according to your own liking. A low need doesn't mean we don't want it, just that there is less focus by the current team.

=== Tent layout ===
 
−
The tent we get is about 5*5 meters. These same tents have been used at HAR and Eth0 Summer 2008. There is certainly enough space for 4 couches, and even a fifth at the top. Maybe throw in some chairs.

decoration ideas:
 
  
−
A Mario-like tube as entrance with the sound played when someone enters.  
+
* PlayStation 1 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlayStation_%28console%29]
−
Cubes with questionMarks on them in the air.
+
* PlayStation 2 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlayStation_2]
−
The Mastersword
 
  
−
8-bit music offcourse (I fight dragons?)
 
  
−
=== Console placement / wiring ===
+
* Xbox [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xbox]
−
All these consoles need wires, and for exporting their video/image even more wires. Also they need tv's (on lackracks?) and extra tables to play with raised feet :P Do we need headphones extension cables/headphones to limit cross-noise? (probably not a problem)
 
  
−
Since we don't have much space, maybe we need to work in the vertical axis. A wall of tv's, of course it has its pro's and con's. like good for space, bad for people who want to sit in front of the tv.
 
  
−
We might need a large sofa possibly without armrests but just pillows, so it can fit more people.
+

another idea is using 2 oposite walls for placing tv's + consoles with a big row of sofas, chairs in the middle

and a few more! If you like, bring your own!

=== Donation Mailing ===
+
=== Games ===
−
We need more consoles, as we only have about 15 (mostly private) boxes. Although we like lending consoles, there are bigger risks, and its also not possible to tinker with them. Therefore we've devised a donation mailing to ask unknown others to donate their old game systems to our initiative. This section also encompasses plans with a longer timespan; they might end up in a public stash and various hackerspaces.
+
For a list of all the games check out the [[Retro Complete Console List]]!
  
−
Warning: this donation mailing will is written in Dutch/moonspeak.
+
Some of the games:
 +
Rollerball, Pac Man, Adventure island II, Mario bros, Duckhunt, Ducktales Zelda 1, Zelda 2, Donkey Kong Country, Super Mario All Stars, Mario Kart 64, Sonic The hedgehog, Altered Beast, V-rally 2, Tekken 2, Ecco the dolphin, Resident Evil 2, Kirbys dream land, Carmagedon, Pokemon Chrystal and a lot more!

=== Donations wanted! ===
−
The tent will have plenty of room for consoles. A quick estimate says about 20, with some spares/optional in boxes. We try to lend consoles from our friends, our lend them from our own stash. There is also a public 'nobody-owns-this' stash of consoles, donated by rd and maybe others in the future.  
+
Only half of our stash is owned by "no one"; the rest we lend from others. If you have console you never use, please consider donating it to eth-0. We will make sure it will be used again on various events. Contact us and we'll arrange all details.

We're currently looking for the following machines: Magnavox Oddesey, dedicated Pong consoles (such as the Telstar or Atari ones), Neo Geo, Super Nes, NEC Turboduo, Atari 2600 and others, Things with wood-style plating. Also newer consoles are welcome. Drop us a line at retro@eth-0.nl
