California Extreme Classic Arcade Games Show
Saturday July 8, 2006 - Sunday July 9, 2006
Parkside Hall, San Jose Convention Center
180 Park Avenue
San Jose, California 95113 Get Directions
California Extreme is the "Classic Arcade Games Show". In a nutshell, it's an annual celebration of coin operated pinball machines, video games and other novelties you once found in game arcades. It's two days that celebrate this exceptional entertainment medium, featuring tournaments, speakers, parts vendors, and an opportunity to play games you may have not seen for years. All the games on display are set for free play, so leave your quarters in the ash tray in your car. You won't need 'em.

Rad. I've been going to CAX for many many years now (since '01), and enjoy it every time.

Here's the speaker schedule, which isn't on their site for some reason. Eugene Jarvis talking about the history of Robotron!

Also, it's only five blocks from the Caltrain station to Parkside Hall, if you don't want to drive.
