The convention features an Indie Showcase, concerts, tournaments and panels touching on a range of topics from "Making Your Nerd Job a Reality" to "Intro to Arcade Game Collecting" to "Write Your Own Nintendo Music."
The convention's gaming marketplace will include "tens of thousands of video games," rare games, prototypes, new games and classic systems available to purchase.

As well as doing a panel and an autograph signing session, video game culture satirist Keith Apicary will be a special guest at the after party.
